Game was over when Blake scored PP goal for Carolina and after the puck was in the net Ekblad winds up and crushes him with an elbow - no call of course for a repeat offender. We'll see what the NHL does but that was worse than anything Rempe was suspended for.
Still think the WCF will be a long coin flip series, but you do feel that at some point the Oilers goaltending questions will catchup with them. They didn't last postseason, and haven't this postseason so far, but it is always lurking with them. Plus, maybe the Stars are due to finally make the SCF, this being their 3rd straight WCF, 0-2 in the previous two trips.
Through 2 games the ECF has gone as expected. The Canes are a cut below the Panthers, and it's very clear. It's unfortunate if you want to see a long close series. If they lose game 3, the Canes could be swept by the Panthers again. Florida looks really strong to win their 2nd straight Cup. I do think the West winner will have a shot and make it a close series though, the Oilers and Stars are both good teams with a lot of talent.
Aho with another cheap knee. These things happen because Parros is an incompetent, dumb fuck that doesn’t punish players the first time.
Looks like the hockey WCF will be the only series out of the 4 that will be a close long series. The WCF has 6 or 7 written all over it, I just hope Hintz is okay for Dallas.
