Not ready for primetime.

Kraken are fiesty. I think the Avs might've taken them too lightly.

100% agree on NJ. Seem young and talented but looked terrified in the big lights. Shaky all around.

I know it's a dead horse, but the officiating is such a shit show and it's directly (negatively) impacting all of these games.

Already had a double overtime and the Leafs just tied it up with 1:00 left. Playoff hockey is the best.

Leafs win with 0:45 left in OT. This the year they finally win a round?

Then they answer with 3 straight in the 2nd. 3-3 going to 3rd.

So talented.

Those two periods looked like two different games.

Saved by an Evander Kane goal late…they were staring down 1-3 series deficit.

Kings 2 wins have already come in OT.

The Kings are built to slow down the Oilers attack. They had for pretty much the first 3 games. Kane, Hyman, and Nuge were pretty much no shows, yet the Oilers led for 90% of those games. It looked like they were cooked falling down 3-0, then they woke up. Kane and Hyman showed up tonight, if they get Nuge going, they should win the next 2. LA has to be demoralized after blowing a lead like that.

EDM is the wildcard (figurative) in this playoff. They have the talent/depth to beat anyone. But, we've already seen them fall back into some old bad habits on defense that they seemed to shake in that incredible end-of-season run. Gotta clean that up. And goaltending...i said riding a rookie goaltender is risky, well Skinner's been shaky. They went to Campbell tonight and he was excellent. He's streaky as fuck. If he gets hot, he could steal a series or two for them. Of course all of their issues could just reappear and they could still piss this series away. They're a fascinating team.

Playoff Draisaitl is a fucking menace, too. He's unreal.

I'd stick with Campbell if I were Edmonton. Ride the hot goalie if you have one. Stick with the starter if you don't.

Draisaitl is a war machine. He was a monster last year on one leg.

I'd stick with Campbell, too. He actually played really well his last few starts and he has gone on runs before. I get going with Skinner to start because he was way more consistent during the season. He's their future and I thought he played relatively well the first 3 games, his defense just hung him out to dry a lot. But he let in a couple softies last night and Campbell was outstanding. Ride the hot hand.
