Hyman with 1 point in his last 8 playoff games.
And that wasn't much last year. The puck was going in anyway and he barely made contact with it. Liked him but so glad he's not playing with M&M anymore.
"So glad." Really? I like Bunting a lot but you're implying Hyman was brutal.

I don?t think that?s what?s being said but Hyman?s importance to the leafs was grossly overstated.

He?s a good player, 5mil x 7 years good? Not even a little.

Exactly.

Right but there's a difference in being glad he's not on the Leafs due to cap constraints vs. being not a good player. Sounded like the latter to me.
 
Man LA has no goaltending.  6-0 and 8-2 losses

The Kane signing paying off big time for Edmonton.

That Kane signing is the only saving grace for Holland's tenure thus far.
 
Edmonton put Duncan Keith and Brett Kulak on the ice to start OT.

Edmonton is now down 3-2 in the series. 
 
I?ve always had a soft spot for Edmonton, they?re low key my second favourite team. But I have a hard time rooting for a team that has evander Kane.

I don't understand how the Oilers can let a low scoring team like the Kings get over 40 shots in a home playoff game?  Kings aren't exactly anyone's idea of a high scoring team

They were 7th in the league in CF/60 during the regular season right behind the Leafs and 4th in xGF/60, again right behind the Leafs. Their finishing just wasn't anywhere nearly as good (dead last in Sh%).

Because the Oilers aren't very good.

Gotta be at least a game or 2?
You would think so, but with Parros,who knows?  We?ll just have to wait and see what he pulls out of his ass this time. 🤷🏻???
 
That didn't look so good, what possible defense could he have for that?  Has to be a game or 2 at least.
 
No penalty on the play, and it's outside the realm of the normal violence that Parros/NHL endorses (fists and checks), so I'm thinking 2 games to knock him out of the series.

Eh, Edmonton can spare him for a one-game suspension, Nurse only played (*checks notes*) uh, 26:23 last game.

Certainly, they have the blueline depth to make it work for a game or two. They just need to lean more heavily on (*checks roster*) ummm....Ceci, Barrie, and a 38 year old Duncan Keith. Yikes.
