Just drop the puck. League needs to crack down on a scheduled 5:00 game not starting until 5:20.

I’m not even sure I’ve heard a Brent Kissel song in my life.
This doesn’t make me a bad Canadian, does it?

Nuge line looks to be too small and soft on the puck. Might be time to bump up Kassian for a few shifts. Kahun is getting pushed around and isn’t engaging the play.

Man, the Leafs just shut this team down. They have figured out McD and Leon.
I'm not sure how they've managed to do it, but 4 shots through 20 minutes? After a whole week off?

Good period by him overall. Couple good saves, decent rebound control and when he did play the puck there were no major gaffes. Cant ask for much more

One thing about RNH playing center, he skates faster. If he bothered to skate that fast when he was playing up on McD's wing he'd have been a lot more effective.

I'm not sure why Brett Kissel is such a big thing with the Oilers. Seems odd to me.
Is he related to someone in the organization?

Think something has lit a fire under nuge's but the last couple weeks. Maybe his agent reminded him that he is in a contract year. He has definitely been more involved lately.

Looks more like rust. Lots of missed passes and pucks in skates. Hoping the second starts and finishes better.

So, from that panel my understanding is that you can either have refs managing games and no matter how lame and boring and grabby a team is or how much star players are being tackled, the penalties always have to end up about even, OR you can choose to have a light slash in the 3rd period of game 7 of the cup finals being called 100% of the time.
That makes deciding pretty easy I guess. Game management and nearly even PP's every night with stars being tackled without calls FTW.

Saw HNIC panel talking about the Tim Peel "event", which allowed a public glimpse behind the curtain of the NHL ref score management. As expected, all boot-lickers. Used nebulous terms like managing the "flow" of the game, as opposed of what really happens, and the most egregious, which is "score" management.

Whoa, I'd completely forgotten the Oil were finally playing again tonight, albeit vs a team that really tuned them up last night they met. The fact that it's still even in the 2nd seems like a good sign, but the Oil scoring would be even nicer, of course....

Wow, close call, as it actually didn't look like Engall actually made contact with his hand. I'm not going to complain if this goes the Oil way, but it actually should be a Leafs goal.

No, he didn't- just terrible luck that the damn puck banked off Smith's helmet into his own net.

I don't know dude... 5 shots on net 26 minutes into this game? One shot every five minutes?
That's not good.

They've been far more focused on playing in their own end, and overall they've done a pretty good job of keeping the Leafs to outside shots on Smith. That goal was pure luck, plain and simple, which sucks.

Holy does this team need to wake up. Get effing going! We're giving the Leafs infinite respect right now.
This team loses too... just not to us.
Just as I type that out, Nurse with the goal. Good work. Hopefully that adds a little juice moving forward in this game.

I think Nurse is now tied for first among D-men for goals with ol' Petry. Freaky.

I think they are playing a smart gameplan. I haven't seen many huge gambles, and it is leading to less shots for but also WAY less good chances against.
After a week off any team is going to come out a bit rusty. I bet the Leafs talked plenty about attacking hard and fast to start the game so playing a bit conservative and weathering the storm isnt bad hockey.
They have played a good 27ish minutes with one lucky GA. I have zero concerns about the offensive talent on this team but them not allowing the Leafs to run and gun makes me happy.

I dont pay as much attention to refs, specifically whos who. Was he one that was often criticized? More so than the general ref complaining I mean

So, like, this is the first time the Oil have had a lead over the Leafs in nearly 11 periods of hockey.

The look off, then no look tape to tape at 30 KM/HR is something else. Not to mention the quick trigger one timer from that far out.
What a pair of talents those two are.
