I think it's a Christmas decoration in his front window.

That's insane. Is Tippet actually coaching these players to take +1:30 min shifts? Or are Batman and Robin allowed simply to do as they please?
It was der Gretzkrieg!

Neal, Draisaitl, McDavid, RNH all zero points. Smith sub .900%. Neal hasn’t scored for 6 games. Only 3 in November. None in December. Lucic is one goal behind over that period now.

I think Neal is going to start being disinterested as he is given less opportunity.

An amusing quote from the PGT on the HFOil board...which is some good reading, if you are curious. Apparently, Drai needs his ice time cut, drastically, 'cause he sucked tonight...

Just start tanking.

They're tired of winning early in the season.

There's no gas left.

They've been pretty bad for a while now fluking out wins or getting McDavid and Draisaitl to carry the corpse over the finish line.


Draisiatl has looked like absolute crap for the past few games, and McDavid is starting to slow down.


Yeah, Tippett's looked frustrated for a while. He knows that even when they win, its not a team doing things to win.

As soon as I saw 5g on 25shots against Vegas I knew who was in net.

Draisaitl looked absolutely awful tonight. I bet he made under 3 tape to tape passes, aside from a couple sequences Mcdavid wasn't too much of a factor either. Buffalo was also bad lol.

It was awesome to see a classic Mike Smith bellyflop on the OT-winner. If you can't get across the crease in time, just go straight down on the belly. Wonderful tactic.

I hated his belly flop when he was a Flame. If he just went across the net on that play like a typical goaltender, his pad would have been in position to keep the puck out but the diving forward motion moved the pad leaving room for the puck to slide in.

Buffalo at least had the excuse of game 3 in 4 and back-to-back days of OT games.

McDavid in that OT goal was real bad. He cut up ice as if Eichel was going to get stripped and then just stopped.

I actually thought the Buffalo player took too long to get the shot off and it would be saved, but it all worked out.

Smith abandons technique and freelances way too much. That's probably passable when you are huge and young. Not as good when you are huge and old.

Anyone see Hoffman trying to get Karlsson to fight in Panthers Sharks game? Obviously bad blood still exists. Anyone know what the latest is? Are they still in the court system? Did it actually get to the courthouse?

Seems as though Hoffman hasn’t forgot...

The opposite happened basically. All of them won except the Bhawks and even then, the Coyotes didn't get the RW as it ended in the SO.
