Post game observation. Barry Melrose looks like death.

Lets see:

Mike Smith is your goalie.
Ceci, Nurse, Keith are your top 3 minutes on defense
The only forwards on the team that play: McDavid, Draisaitl and Kane are not know for their defense.

Yeah, you need to score at least 6/7 goals to win.

Call me crazy, but playing well over a minute to start OT (after playing much of the third period) and dogging it on the backcheck in OT is no way to win a playoff game either. Don't get me wrong, I'm not blaming McDavid, I'm blaming the roster construction.

Like I said last week, if Holland was even half-competent in roster construction Edmonton are a real Cup threat this postseason.

If they didn’t luck into bargain price Kane they maybe miss the playoffs.

It's not going to get any easier when Nurse's 9.25 shmill kicks in next season. That's a lot of money to shell out for head butts.

Looks like Nurse is going to get suspended unless he’s got compromising pics of Parros.

Nurse could get off on a technicality by claiming his helmet hit Danult and not his head - you can’t have head butting without contact by both parties heads.

But if that doesn’t work that should be multiple games I would think.

Weak sauce from Parros, but is anyone really surprised?

Remember dash, one playoff game is worth like a bajillion regular games so he got the book thrown at him.

If he commits enough more, then Parros will have a movie session with him to teach him how to not get caught.
