That was a bad goal to give up.  Helle way overplayed that... McDavid had very little down low.

2-1 Appleton

Bomber home games during the week used to start at 8 pm in the 60's, 70's & 80's. Then nearly an hour ride home to Riverview by bus. Up at 7 am to be at Churchill High at 9 the next morning. Years later when I was working full time 8 am. No one seemed to mind. I sure didn't. It was nice to be able to go home for dinner after work & then go to the game not feeling rushed.

Great tip by Appleton.

Jets came out to try to finish it off tonight and McDavid and Draisaital look defeated.

Great period.

Yeah, McDavid looks so inspired. #playingoutthestring

We score two goals this perios & they keep talking about McDavid. Or arguing on the Oilers bench.

NHL goalies today give up so many brutal goals. They're always on their knees so the can't move fast enough from one post to the other like on the goal McDavid scored. If Hellebuyck was on his skates he might've been able to move across & stack his pads thw way goalies used to do. 

Another weak goal given up by Hellebuyck. 

ugh 3-2 Oilers

What is goingbon ? Why are the refs calling so many ticky tack penalties?

When exactly was that? Was wearing an onion in your belt the style at the time?

yeah this is getting out of hand penalty call towards the jets wise

Yep, of course you wouldn't know. No surprise there. Of course being stupid you still talk trash.

Two chintsy penalty calls. Guess we know who they want to win. if that's what they're calling it has to go both ways

The current style of goaltending yields the highest percentage of saves. Very few shooters can elevate the puck when they're in close - definitely not on a consistent basis.  Goalies get into trouble when they go down too early - like Smith on the Stastny OT goal. 

No consistency in how the game is reffed in the NHL. Yes that was a cross check by Morrisey but Draisatl signature forecheck move is a cross check.

It may be but so many backhands or shots up high today get through when in years earlier they never did. 

I’m surprised these CBC commentators aren’t all wearing their rally caps for the Oilers. 

yup
