  1. When the Kings scored that 3rd Goal I was like "its over" and all of a sudden they tied it and then OT happened. The Assault the Oilers put on Kemper during OT has me screaming "PUT THE PUCK IN THE NET" shot after shot it wasn't going in and I was getting nervous. LA had the puck in the oilers zone and I was biting my nails and then that super close skirmish my heart sank and when it was saved a visible sigh of relief on my face. When Leon scored I lost my mind and almost gave my dog a panic attack with the HELL YAA I let out (she is ok I gave her lots of love a treats). That was quite possibly the best game I have ever seen. Pickard MVP imo.

  5. I don’t know what game 1 you watched. The Jets did not dominate game 1 at all. They even went into the 3rd period being down. I give them the third period in both games in Winnepeg but the other 4 periods in Winnepeg were back and forth.

  6. You know whats funny…. hit to the head and the fact that you are not even honest enough to call the hit on Carrier an assault and hit on the head.
    And when you report , check the replay, hit to the head, if you touch the head, its a hit on the head!
    Game 3 was real old-school playoff hockey… game 4…. vicious and dangerous hits. Let s say its wilson aand Ovy that were hit like that, you wouldn't have the same comments !
