Thankfully the Toronto game didn't go to overtime. Even my Centre Ice channel didn't work to get this game at 7. I hope we see our game from the start on 360.

Mike Smith special with some help from Larsson. Assist to Lucic.

You wouldn’t want to start the McDavid line. This is like what the Raptors did with Kawhi. Load management.
You can't always get what you want, but if you try sometimes, you just might find, you can get a lottery pick.

Last change - if the other team's coach plays his fourth line, you have to play yours too - don't you???

Why does Russell still panic like a rookie in his second NHL game.
Good grief man..

Is Koskinen hurt? He definitely would have been my choice to start this game if he isn't.

Not completely over the line.
Exact same thing as when they disallowed McDavid last year.

20 picks in the fight survivor pool and I wouldnt have gotten that one right but THAT is what I want to see from the BAO. Pissed off guys fighting out of anger and emotion.
As I type this Zack gets his matchup. Good for turtle for dropping the flippers. Wasnt the best fight but KAssian got a couple in and seemed good after.
I liked Rinaldo's "fight me next" chirp. Here's to hoping he does something to end up in the box and Kassian gets the game winner this time.

I'd be responding to Rinaldo with the same chirps that Tkachuk was giving Kassian last year. Call him a plug and say you don't fight players who are that much worse than you. Tell him that "Coach says I can't because we need you on the ice."
There's just no reason to have a non-fourth liner fight a fourth liner.

Totally agree.
There’s no need to fight that stiff.

Small pet peeve about play-by-play guys - I hate when they act all surprised about lines getting shuffled when there's really good, easy-to-see reasons for it. McDavid & Draisaitl are playing together because both of them have a linemate in the penalty box for five minutes.
Ditto for first shifts after powerplays or penalty kills. They're so often really surprised that the coach is "bringing out the blender" and then equally shocked when the lines are back to normal two shifts later.

Also!
That penalty. They were discussing if it went off Klefbom. Smith played it a good 8 inches outside the trapezoid... is that not a penalty regardless?

RIdiculous. They let Tkachuk have about three straight slashes and finally call it when Draisaitl gives one back. That's some veteran crappy reffing there...

The important thing is they’re kicking people out of the face off circle. That’s what gets a game out of hand.

Smith managed to look like a pretty small 6'5 there...that shot wasn't right in the corner by any stretch.

I can never get a bead on what this guy is thinking on some plays. Pad stacking etc.

Another example of NHL's refereeing, Turtle slashes LD. then slashes RNH, then slashes LD again ... and Refs take only two off... classic NHL.
After watching the NHL embarrass itself by constantly promoting the Tkchuks all over their All-Star weekend promenade, I'm beginning to realize that the NHL/Bettman/Parros actually consider the Tkchuks as some pathetic type of NHL "royalty", and they get their own rule book. One set of rules for the commoner, and another for the "Royals".

And then the main event - Tkachuk vs. Kassian with Kassian laying a licking on the Turtle.
Guaranteed Calgary fans are questioning how come Lucic looks so laid back right now...we've seen that act before though...

I popped over to CP for a minute. There are a few posts already about Lucic coasting around and a few more about him letting up on hits, specifically one on McDavid triggered them.

Only people who have to worry about Lucic are guys like Nygard and Archibald who weren't here last year. And chances are if he were to go after them, he would be trying to find a way to get tossed so that he doesn't have to be part of anything else.
Who was that poor innocent he went after with the Kings last year?

Nuge got some good licks in after though. Was a good spirited affair.
Also, pains me to say this but good on Tkachuk for taking the fight.

Monahan's first fight, so he picks a Lady Byng candidate for his debut (as you'd expect from a pussy) and starts swinging before Nuge even knew he was in a scrap. Nuge would've cleaned him if he saw it coming.
If the refs were on the ball Monahan should've got a 2 for instigator, plus the 2 for the cross check to Nuge's throat that started it all... but that would've meant refs actually being on the ball.

To be honest, other than the 97 breakaway, he’s faced a pop-gun offence from the Oilers in my opinion.
They were garbage the first 10 minutes.
