After watching the highlights (Fox sports will not put the Penguins on this year) how was the McDavid breakaway not a penalty shot? I thought that if you throw your stick at the puck it was a penalty.

I think the officials ruled that Dumoulin "lost" his stick as he attempted to sweep the puck away from McDavid. You are correct that throwing your stick at the puck is an automatic penalty shot.

And I think the officials got it right. Looked like he reached around and got the stick caught on McDavid's pants, and just let go of it to not take the hook.

Anthony Duclair has already won that one.

Sorry, Sid.

Agreed. I saw the highlight of that one a few times, and the studio folks just said, "Duclair scores a goal and makes it [score of the game]," and I was sitting there thinking, "How do you not say more about that masterwork?"

Plus he scored it against an NHL team with NHL defensemen!

At the home opener against the Caps JJ fucked something up in the first period. I said to my kid “ only 2 years and 81 games of this left. “ He side eyed me and said you know it was a 5 year deal right???
