  1. I've determined the Edmonton fan base is bitch-made. They've been crying about the start time for Game 3, they showed a video of the Duchene high-stick after he'd been hit and Kane's stick is coming back down to claim that Duchene did an all-world acting job. They are 100% excuses all the time about why their sainted hockey team doesn't win.
  2. Yep, the saying goes that the goalie has to be your #1 penalty killer. Skinner wasn’t that guy last night but I don’t know if he had a chance to stop Miro’s or Granlund’s goals. Skinner was a flailing mess in the scrum where Duchene scored. Steel made a great play but I feel like you’ve got to make that save at that moment. Maybe not.
  3. Well, no shit. Take Jordan off the Bulls and they don’t win a single title. He’s that damn good. But Draisaitl is a top 3-5 player in the world. They’ve been getting contributions from everywhere you look this year in the playoffs. (Granted, I would’ve rather played the Kings/Vegas to get here over the Avs/Jets in retrospect.) The point is they are far from a one-man team. They do, however, have one man (really two) who is an all-time great. I hope they have a goalie problem, which they might. (I also can’t believe Darnell Nurse is an alternate captain for them. That’s bad juju.) I picked Edmonton to win the series earlier this week. All that’s happened is that the Stars have won a home game after getting played with for 40 mins. Long way to go.
  4. Jimmy Kimmel tonight shared an email that was sent to him from a “mole” at Fox News where a booking agent for Fox & Friends reached out to Kirstie Alley to see if she’d come on and do a short 3-5 minute interview about George Wendt passing away.
  5. Did Benn even play tonight? [emoji2369]
  6. The only thing stopping FLA this round is the wear-and-tear of going to back-to-back finals and then the conference finals the next year. It’s pretty hard to repeat but damn, they look the part.
  7. Once a prick (Corey Perry), always a prick (Corey Perry).
  8. My only regret is we don’t get to see Messier/PK in the postgame.
  9. That calls for another
  10. Nurse is such a horse’s ass
  11. Let’s make it a hat trick of PP goals in the third!
  12. I’ve said it before, I’ll say it again. Skinner is their Achilles heel.
  13. It’s all he’s got. Those other leaders brought more to the table than the orange dipshit. They were smarter and/or more ruthless. Trump treats this like a reality TV show.
  14. Edmonton is damn good and have two of the five best players in the world. They’ve got a salty supporting cast. Skinner is the question mark. Otter is going to have to have the series of his life to win this based on tonight’s evidence.
