Scott Van Pelt just said the Oilers have a “gear no other team has.”

Made me laugh.

I think the appropriate suspension would be 5 games. But he’ll probably get one.

The factors that should make it a 5-gamer include (1) puck nowhere near the play, (2) only possible intent was to injure, and (3) he had to have premeditation with the amount of time he had to NOT slash Draisaitl. He should be out of this series at a minimum.

Taking Nurse out of the Oilers lineup helps the Oil lol. I can see the Knights wanting it overturned.
Seriously thought the same thing.

Also not sure if this is what the Knights needed, essentially all the momentum is in the Oilers favor now.

I don't disagree with McDavid, but I don't think a player should outright be calling for another player to be suspended. You can say it's not a hockey play and intent to injure etc. but I would just say that the Department of Player Safety will review it and we'll see what the outcome is.

So we’re allowed to say the DOPS suck but the guys who actually face the possible injuries on the ice can’t?

I wish more said this. Maybe they’d actually do it.

I'll be surprised if Petro gets off with just a fine, that was a nasty slash on the guy who could end up winning the Conn Smythe. We all know Parros is terrible at his job, I'm just thinking NHLPA member going after NHLPA member isn't the best approach. Let his coach or GM handle that part of it.

If I was Pietrangelo I’d send Phil Kessel in my place and see if Parros notices. Everybody loves Phil and I figured he’d be able to get off with just a fine.

You can't judge a book by its cover - Does that apply to fans?

in person or phone? I am guessing phone and he will get one game as well. (I do not think he is repeat is he?) helluva slash tho

I'm thinking phone/Zoom/MS Teams meeting and I think one game minimum for Petro.

/How Kane has escaped thus far with nothing remains a mystery.

He doesn’t have any cash money to pay a fine with anyways.

Hell yeah!!!

My Phil Kessel trick actually worked. Parros gets duped again.

I guess Leon should have stayed down longer or skated off the ice holding his arm/wrist like it was broken :noidea:
