Was hilarious that Jets scored on that PP and he was on the ice for the next goal after that too. Hope they get swept tonight for the lols. He was on the ice for the OT goal, too, if I recall correctly. I felt bad for the guy because that terrible penalty he took on that low-bridge hit turned the whole game around for Winnipeg.

He went outside the rules of the game to try to hurt someone. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DevsMan84 Posted May 24, 2021 Share Posted May 24, 2021 I watched highlights of the Jets/Oilers game and maybe it is just me, but that game-tying goal and the OT goal were ones Smith should have had. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're right, it was dumb and dangerous. My pity is that he has to live with the consequences ... likely burying his team because of a bad choice. I felt bad for Steve Bernier, too. Not right when it happened though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not just you. He can’t let the tying goal in. The winner was a great shot by Ehlers. Edited May 24, 2021 by MadDog2020 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's incredible, but look at what Winnipeg is doing to him in the playoffs. If we emptied the cupboard for McDavid, that's what we would have to look forward to .... missing the playoffs and getting shut down when we do make it. Even a team with Connor McDavid needs a second line (and/or third line) putting pucks in the net. Look at what having Taylor Hall means to the Bruins so far. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And it’s shocking to see McDavid kept in check like this- especially since he spent most of 2021 ripping Winnipeg a new a$$hole lol Edited May 24, 2021 by MadDog2020 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The hardest thing should be finding elite talent, not filling in the roster around them. Of course you need depth and a supporting cast but they're literally running Mike McLeod's younger brother Ryan, taken 2 years later and 30 picks down the draft (2nd round, 40th overall) out there as their second line center. Let that sink in for a minute. If you make a move like this, as a GM I'm sure you're confident that you can build a roster around McDavid. Hell, right off the bat we already have Sharangovich, a good second line(Zacha/Nico/Bratt) and the makings of a good 3rd line between Mercer/Boqvist/Kuokkanen/Foote etc. to go with him. Again, there's still a lot of work to do but man, things would get interesting fast, especially with all of the extra cap room we have.

Bonginator11 Posted May 25, 2021 Share Posted May 25, 2021 Good game between the Pens and Islanders right now. Pens controlling most of the game but Sorokin has been really good for the Islanders 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it's not so easy to build a team that can win it all. The Jets are badly exposing the Oilers, who need their depth players to step up. Their old goalie, who has had a good season, has been outplayed, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's hard to build a championship roster but I don't think you can pass up a chance to add the best player in the world at that price and I think we would immediately be better than the Oilers, even without a Drai. ...and we would get to watch McDavid every night.
