Wait..... what???? Maybe it wasn't all Chiarelli's stupidity in Edm?

And then there's Talbot who probably wants out of there no matter what. Im my mind his play fell off because they played him way to much and he has a porous D that allows too many chances, and therefore a goalie cheats more then he should.
If he goes to a good team next year I bet his numbers rocket up from where they are now.

“Michael Matheson got undressed - and that gives you the right now to slam a guy on the ice? Maybe in the Octagon, but not in a hockey game." - great quote by Craig Button

@Mike Vanderhoek Are you blind and dumb? People are not complaining about the hit. People are complaining about what came after the hit, when the puck was nowhere near Pettersson.

pretty good eye sight thank you, I am a technician in the field of medicine so I can only assume I am not dumb either. Not really cool remarks, you should maybe edit those.
There are some complaining about the hit, most complaining about Matheson tossing EP aside after the hit ( which one only has to go on youtube and watch footage of this type of play, very common ). The issue was EP didn't absorb the hit well, maybe we can attribute this to being 19, having played in what ? 5 NHL games and being a kid vs a man ? take that into account and the kid when tossed aside was not in a position to pushback and literally just got tossed to the ice. The head was not targeted, maybe it hit the ice afterwards but it is a common play in hockey and not really ever brought up.
Its because he is a young star in a hockey crazy city that so many seem to be losing their minds, I am happy the league would look into this. Young exciting players should be protected for sure, but you also have to be strong enough to handle the day to day hits, slams, pushes too.
Had Gudbranson done this to a young forward, the same people screaming right now would be praising him for being physical then you'd be complaining that the League would look into it.

The issue I have is that it is not a hockey play. There is no need to pick up EP and slam him to the ice. Certainly a play with malicious intent

“They were hitting, holding, cutting, grabbing, clutching, hitting,” Nurse fumed. “It’s been going on all year. I do not understand why they are letting everyone play one of the best players in the league so physically. I do not understand it.”
Oh Darnell how dare people actually hit McDavid lol

In the article it is funny as he says this:
Beginning Tuesday, when St. Louis visits the Oilers on Sportsnet, our cameras will go in search of such interference off the puck, as McDavid tries to join the play. If it’s there, and we have little doubt it exists, Canadians across the country will see it for the next two days — because that’s the media’s role in all of this.
Mark Spector is on the case!!!

Austin Mathews with egg on his face with his idiotic Hand to Ear taunt - only to have Kane score to tie it right back up haha
-
Craig Simpson might want to get those eyes checked.... says Beagle knocked Andersson down when it was his own defenseman ... lol

Don't look now folks but the Blues are back - with games in hand

@NewbieCanuckFan They usually do well in the regular season and then fall apart in epic fashion in the first or second round.
This year though their epic failures began early on and now they're recovering.

Evander bit off way more than he could chew..

Why don't they call some of these penalties and let it escalate into goonery,Z.Chara and R.Reaves from vegas knights seem to be able to run around hitting people and no penalties,I don;t mind rough and tumble hockey but when you start hitting guys then crosschecking them when they are down(Reaves),there has to be some rules against that goonery.Those are shi%%y refs that should go back to pee wee hockey where they belong.

I have the best kid in the world - she came to visit and is taking me to see the Foo Fighters tonight!!!
-
I heard a comedian once say this about Canuck fans if we won the Stanley cup - "So what we will just lose it next year"
Pretty much sums up the mentality of some on here
-
Is there a bigger homer in hockey than Mark Spector and his Oiler fluff pieces?
-
LMAO at Sportsnet bragging about Dubas's cap wizardry - yippee he made enough space for Marner - what about next year when he has 18 million to sign basically an entire defensive core lol

Cici and Kerfoot arbitration will award 9 million for the two. Leafs might have to walk from both guys. I really think a team should offer sheet Marner at 11 million times 7 years. Islanders should do it. Come on Lou! Stick the knife into your old boss and twist. You’ll like it, and so will we all!
-
thats a great idea! Buffalo is close to home for Marner too. Love to see this happen.

LOOK OUT LEAFS - McDavid is pissed off and going to take it out on you ...

Man good tilt between Benn and Anderson tonight in the CLB-DAL game - bit of a slobber knocker
-
Only in Deadmonton is a fan favorite an overpaid 6 Million dollar anchor like Lucic
-
Mark Spector wrote an article about how he has embraced his new role as a third line player and how great he has been lol. At least with Loui we have the cap space to absorb a crappy contract and there is some possibility of moving him in the last few eyars of his deal and only have to eat half his salary - Edmonton doesn't have that luxury and like I have said he's an anchor on that team contract-wise as he has a NMC and 4 more years (he is not going to get better as he ages.) Oh well he fights so they paid 6 million for an enforcer - way to go Chiarelli
-
Shortage of Kleenex here in Edmonton right now - lotta crying going on about McDavid's suspension and how unjust the NHL is. Welcome to our world Coilers - we have been trying to tell you this for years
-
Two things that suck about Winnipeg so far - lack of Nucks games (I am watching tonight's game !) and lack of Seahawks games.
On a positive note Jets fans much classier than Coiler fans ever were

Weezer covers Toto's Africa and killed it - video has Weird Al Yankovic in it - enjoy!

What a shock - we once again are labelled Losers on Free Agency - embrace the hate

Would this be the most expensive unproductive line in the NHL today?
Neal-Eriksson-Lucic?

I the only one hoping Brady Tkachuk drops down to 7th? I know we need offensive defenceman but man this kid is going to be something.
