There certainly appears a nice level of unpleasant relations developing.

Despise both of them obviously but it should be entertaining regarldess.

At the very least I know for certain which team I hate more.....

That was a shove to the shoulder by Coleman. Bouchard clutches his face and goes down like he was shot.

Fucking embarrassing.
He sold that really well didn't he.

He seems to dive a lot better than he defends.

After this series these teams will hate each other for years. Nice to see the battle rekindled.

McDavid is just so much better than everyone else, it's insane to watch. Edmonton would be last in the pacific without him.

The way he turned Hanifin into a pylon was crazy, that ensuing goal was correctly called back, but he got his a couple minutes later with another beauty move in close where he made Markstrom look like Hanifin. Last night was the first time I really just watched his skating. I mean, I had seen how fast he was compared to everyone else, but the little things I'd never bothered to really watch. The way the guy can slow down and then speed up the way he does is insane, and his stride is so dynamic, it doesn't matter whether he's in full flight or in close, it's explosive with the little push offs or the full stride.....and the edge work.....otherworldly. He was probably skating before he was walking. Oh yeah, he can take a hit too. Watching him engage or brace for a contact and then use that contact to generate momentum into his next motion. Crazy.

I do think he should get called for interference and holding the stick a ton though. Doesn't matter if he has the puck or not, he does these little clutch and grab things all over the place on offense and defense.

Sometimes I get the spidey sense that McDavid is so far advanced than everyone else boredom becomes his enemy. It’s like he should be playing in the Future NHL like 30 years from now when hockey humans at that far off time where no man has been before have eventually evolved to his level he is at now

You're probably not wrong.

He's a friggin cheat code.

That being said, Markstrom has sucked for 2 straight games. It's like watching the Markstrom who arrived in Vancouver back in 2014. Edmonton will be gone in 5 games if Markstrom regains his regular season form.

Only 1 game today and 3 tomorrow, 1 in the AM and the other an afternoon affair.

Not quite sure why the NHL elects to put its product up against the final round of the years second golf major.

I notice the NBA is steering clear of it both days choosing night games both Saturday and Sunday.

Ok, a member of the media, who is sitting in the interview room with us, said they saw Binnington throw the water bottle at Kadri. It was down by the locker rooms while Naz was live on the air with TNT.
