we should just play the rest of the series on the PK. we seem to play better that way.

 

I hadn't pointed it out yet because of the love Raanta has been getting but I think our Skaters have more faith in Anderson than they do Raanta (they seem to have to cover for a lot more for him) and it's adversely affected our offense and PP as well.

When will the NHL ban kadri for being a dirty prick...

Between Kadri taking Binnington out and Lucic going after Smith- that's what they both had to do to try and win. The Blues could have stretched Colorado to 7 and made this a series with Binnington in net. Now they have no shot.

Edmonton will probably rally around the Smith hit and just take it to the Flames. Of course, there's just 1 guy doing it all for the Oilers. That's the guy they should have targeted, not the goalie.

It most definitely has. Raanta has been playing well but you can't teach genetics and Anderson is just a massive force at the net like Igor.

Rule #1 should be "You take my goalie out, I take yours".

    • When we have everyone playing like they should, we can win the Cup. That has been the biggest problem when we get to the playoffs, but this year seems to be fixed mostly. We could have had multiple if we had done this in the past.
    • Here we go Bryce Stan’s you should love this. Hell it may be one of you.  It has every cliche excuse and then some.  Unintentionally hilarious my limit was reached when he said Bryce had it hard because four play callers. 
    • Luke goes in to the specifics of what he looked to accomplish in joint practices.  Basically they may work with someone on the opposing team to stress something they feel is a weakness in their own game in a different way that can be done with someone they are familiar with. That they can have predetermined stresses but since neither wants to get injured and it has absolutely no bearing on anything there is not the level of concern that would be in a preseason game.  He would also even chat with opposing OC.   It seems like an interesting nuance among the vets and savy pros.
