Half of Toronto is planning the Stanley Cup parade for Monday, apparently they never knew there was a second round.
Jokes aside the Toronto Maple Leafs have honestly never played in the fourth round of the playoffs

Can you imagine the energy in the building if there's a game 7? Oh boy.

Now, will they melt down in da turd and give up a 3 goal lead?
We know it can be done.
Kings haven't had a power play yet. Stack and even in full effect in the third. They just need one 5 on 5 within the first half of the period.

Edmonton & L.A.
Any other questions....
No in net. Do you go with Jack "Cant Get The Job Done" Campbell who came in and stole that game or do you go back to the rookie who got run out of the building? Neither are good choices.

Who starts game 5 for Edmonton?

What a fun series. Can't wait to see what Woodcroft has to say about the officiating tonight

Draisaitl to break the curse
Vilardi to keep it rolling

Did i hear that correctly ? Draisaitl has been in on every Edmonton goal this series ? Unreal
I can't find it but the Oilers record when drai scores twice in a playoff game is pretty hilarious.

People will still say the refs are on the Kings side when the Kings get a late third period winning PPG. The scripts are too obvious.

Having seen more angles I’m now 100% convinced that the puck hit Villardi’s stick. But theres still more to the conversation.
Friedman and as a result a lot of other people have said it didn’t matter that the puck hit Ekholm because he never gained possession. However in the rule book possession is only ever mentioned with respect to the offending team that high sticked the puck. possession and control are never mentioned in the pre-requisites for a washout and play to continue.
The yellow below would indicate no goal but the blue immediately afterwards indicates goal.
It seems like we need to make a distinction between whether or not the “puck [was] struck by a high stick” which would mean no goal since it only deflected off of a defending player and possession was gathered next by the offending team or whether it was more incidentally “contacted by a high stick” which is the blue highlight and would mean it was a good goal because it was batted to an opponent. The fact that Ekholm didn’t gain possession in this blue scenario doesn’t actually mean anything the way the rule is worded.

I disagree. You can see the speed of the puck as it's going up. Without the stick, the puck keeps going up. It hit the curled end of the blade
this angle makes it look like it was the natural arc and his stick was in the vicinity. but the reverse angle looks like it 100% dropped dead after hitting his stick- 1

No that's exactly why its a high stick. He's McDavid. Its Edmonton. Did you know they've won 5 cups? And had Gretzky? And have a big mall?
They should be entitled to the cup this year AND Bedard.
Lol. Fair tbh!

Jay Woodcroft is an absolute idiot. His argument for why it’s a high stick is that the greatest player on earth put his hand up? McDavid is always crying for calls. Doesn’t mean he’s right

Don’t know what the standard is? Really Leon? You literally played these guys last year. The Kings will get away with more than you will. It’s really that easy.

There is no clearly there at all, especially not clearly enough to call a goal back.
It’s super unclear and I’m inclined to think he didn’t touch it given that he played it next when it landed. He could have easily put his stick near it and let Ekholm play it next if he felt like he touched it.

Coilers fans now crying about the refs and advocating physical harm be inflicted upon them.
Its times like these that make leave me confused as to why the Canucks are the only team with a toxic fanbase.
I mean we cried just as much when we played the Kings in those series a decade ago. A Gary team vs a Canadian team is always going to lean one way from the stripes.

High stick
Indeed! That actually is reviewable

Mesh isn’t reviewable?

A 75% Aaron Rome for a play where the puck was never involved at all. Bunting got off light.
Although I truly think this could be addition by subtraction for the Leafs.

Hall & Oates is so much funnier when the leafs are still down by 4

Imagine blowing your best years of a Cup window on Gary's divisional playoff matchups meaning you get Tampa or Boston year over year.

I can't see for the life of me how the ref doesn't lose sight of the puck there. Wes literally comes in after the fact to point goal.

They call nothing on Bennett getting mugged with a scoring chance but they’ll call ticky tack call after ticky tack call on Florida. This is pretty silly.
