It was a deliberate intent of Draisaitl to injure Sasha barkov the best center of the panthers and the one charged with the task to shutdown the best opposing forwards.

The usually powerful powerplay of the Oilers is unusually powerless in this finals. Why? Because the panthers are gritty and aggressive physically and defensively. With their relentless and aggressive forecheck, they force the oilers players to make mistakes and bad decisions with the puck. They scored 2 goals off turnovers. Their penalty killing is top notch. They are suffocating the oilers and not giving them
any space and time to make plays. You can see that the Oilers players are frustrated and mad af. Thats why they try to hurt the panthers players with cheap shots. By the way, the Panthers were the second best defensive team in the regular season and the best defensive team in these playoffs. They have a better defense and goaltending than the oilers.
McDavid stonewalled by Bob :wow: Panthers like I was sayin just look like the more balanced and complete team

A team who has both Great Goaltending and stingy defense will always win championships. That’s why the Panthers will win the cup this year.

The Panthers are opportunistic and wait for the oilers to fukk shyt up with mistakes and turnovers. Then they feast on them.

Wasn't deliberate or malicious but because he jumped and Barkov didn't play I wouldn't be surprised with a fine
Lotta missed calls both ways again just like we've seen all playoffs
-Delay of game that woulda given EDM a 5 on 3
-Slashes both ways
-Tkachuk hook on connors breakaway

Undisciplined plays by Carrick and Drai suggest frustration similar to what led to Nurses past suspension against VGK and the end of our chapter

Having nurse sit with injury, Kane stand on the bench because of his groin injury and play on ice at 20% didn't help. Bouch had his worst game of the playoffs, maybe Drai too.

Need the home crowd energy and comfort or it won't be a long series like everyone predicted...

Also as much as people say Connor and Drai want out of Edmonton because of lack of support look at their production so far. Analyze everything else you want but 1 goal in 2 games on the biggest stage (also from a defenceman) doesn't cut it for this high powered offence
