I’d say Good Skinner showed up tonight but we are hardly testing him. PK’s right — we need to throw pucks at him. Making his life way too easy.

So Dave Jackson says call the action, not the result. Then why the fuck does blood result in a 4-minute double minor no matter how benign the play. I fucking hate the “draw blood, get a double minor” shit in the first place.

I want Nurse’s head on a stick in this period.

And when the action isn’t a hockey play?  Why take that swing if not to inflict pain?

Obviously the entire offense sucked, but Rantanen has to do more 

yep. he's been great in the playoffs but we are short team speed and some skill.

they are better than us 5 on 5

If they get good Skinner, they might be better than us period. Even more so if Roope can’t go. Speaking of Hintz, any early updates on him?

All I’ve heard is he was in a walking boot.

Jesus. As I think back on it, Nurse’s coy smile in the aftermath was infuriating. First, I think he thought Roope was playing it up. Then when he saw he couldn’t put weight on it, that smile appeared.

Let’s see what the league does here. I’m not holding my breath. Some pretty strong words from DeBoer and a couple of Stars after the game saying to imagine if that is McDavid helped off the ice, there’s no way that’s not a major penalty.

It was dirty. It was on purpose. It wasn’t during the course of play. Nurse should sit for at least a game. But I’m sure the worst he gets is a fine and stern letter.

Definitely need to see more out of the forward group, especially if Roope is not able to go. It's funny the narrative is the Stars need to do more offensively, but both teams have scored 6 goals. ah well, nevertheless

no additional discipline for Nurse. at least they have set the standard. go do your thing, Jamie

Don’t hold your breath. None of em did shit after roope got hurt and getting smoked. That part was surprising.

How we feeling today? Hearing we will get an update on Roope at 1p. Not sure if that's our time or eastern. My guess is he plays, but i won't be surprised if he doesn't

5-0 this postseason after a loss.
I feel confident

If he’s not playing, you know the only update will be “lower body, day to day”

If someone were to cross check nurse’s teeth out way behind the play, I can expect a cross checking minor and nothing else, right?

No Roope. 
Lines in warmup:
Granlund-Back-Rantanen
Marchment-Duchene-Seguin
Benn-Johnston-Dadonov
Robertson-Steel-Blackwell
Heiskanen-Lindell
Harley-Ceci
Bichsel-Petrovic
Oettinger 

Guess that ends Edmonton fans’ narrative that Roope took a dive or was “playing it up.”

And just zero discussion from anybody about a blatant cheap shot taking one of our best skaters out of the lineup. None.

I have to say the Edmonton guy singing O Canada is pretty damn special there. Really cool.
