What this means is Stone will be in the lineup for the important games and out of the lineup between the trade deadline and start of playoffs every year so Vegas can get cap space to add again.

It is embarrassing how many US singers don’t know the words to O’Canada. Teams should be embarrassed trotting out people who don’t respect the country enough to learn the words. What a joke. Twice in a week.

People mad that the Oilers scored on the power play and it was their only goal. Well they went 1/1 and the Kings have yet to score on the power play in the series (0/11). So keep bitching to fit your narrative. Goals are impressive however they come. #LetsGoOilers

Not so crazy idea. Swap Broberg with Bouchard for 1 game and see how it goes. Play with Ekholm all game, 20+ minutes, and power play. See if the lack of awareness leading to goals is cut down and also see if Bouchard is actually replaceable in his offensive role. #LetsGoOilers

The #NHL since the playoffs started: - CHI (of all teams) gets the next generational player. - Scheduling is a joke. - Refs can’t call a game. - Player Safety doesn’t protect players. - League/Refs can’t be called out or there’s a fine (pre-playoffs).* What am I missing?
