I knew Doan could become a very good player but he is exceeding what I thought his ceiling could be. He is a building block. He will still become stronger, smarter, and better.

Quinn was held, hog tied, and tossed to the ice in the final minute, blatant interference or holding, no call. The Edmonton announcer thought it was funny. They must to used to getting the benefit of the doubt. Prior to that, Dahlin gets two minutes for tripping when he checked the guy with the puck behind his own net.

Last year a guy kicked one in on us and they determined he didn’t do it intentionally. The NHL is not a serious league.

So we hook this talometer up to each player butt and measure talent, then add it up, then divide by 23, is that right? Who gives a $hit about talent? What about size, strength, speed, skating, shot, skills, grit, mental toughness, intelligence, and durability? Talent is a concept compared to these attributes.

Lindy would have lost the challenge and you know it. Why get worked up? they won. Go argue about the missed icing on the first Edmonton goal if you want a winnable argument. And yes, the rules are different when a goalie is outside the paint with less protection than if he is in the blue paint. Contact is allowed outside the paint unless it is ruled to be intentional, avoidable, or overly forceful - all judgement calls. Just touching a goalie who is in the blue paint is often called interference.

The Edmonton goal to start the third was icing. That goal should have come off the board. Edmonton shot it into the Sabres end but never got to the red line. It was obvious to all except the linesmen, even the Edmonton announcer saw it. I guess you can’t challenge icing? They also blew an icing call on the Sabres at the end of the 2nd, two Sabres were beating the Edmonton player back and the linesmen blew an early whistle. Toronto blew the hand pass. The puck hits the back of Tuch’s glove while his hand is on the stick - that cannot be a hand pass.

Lindy would have challenged and lost. The Edmonton announcer said Lyon left the blue paint on his own, so no interference. 😂 The NHL makes it up as they go. A puck randomly hits the back of Tuch’s glove before a goal, it must be a hand pass. Winning In OT was fun. 2 points accomplished, Edmonton gets a loser point but they are out of conference so no big deal.

nice Tuch. we get 2 points after all

One second. Unbelievable. An OT win seems like too much to ask for

Only Buffalo

He just missed a holding penalty on Edmonton

Good call ref. Finally.

Uhh. Tuch

5 on 3. Good time out.

How is that a hold, the guy has the puck?

Edmonton announcers saying Lyon froze and should have cover the puck.

Oh $hit

That was icing

Ugh dumb penalty

Doaner nice hands.

Great play by TNT.

Another challenge against the Sabres.

Good grief is a rookie playing on team that plays terrible team defense.

Tage goal. Nice

He left the game in final minute. Maybe it was equipment. Don’t know. The Edmonton coverage is crap
