That’s not boarding?

I don't think he actually went into the board.  he turned away.

we are buzzing a bit.  just need to house one and make this a game for the last 10 min.

If we could get one, could tighten them up a little.

Here’s the game. Let’s end their streak of PK’s.

Winning zero races and zero battles.  Being outphysicaled, I assume in part to stay off the pk, while edm is playing hard nosed playoff hockey on the edge.

Bingo, just outworked badly.  Rage.

horrible. must win game 5.  

It might help if we could just be healthy for one series.

Worst overall game of the playoffs.  Just never recovered after they grabbed momentum in the first.   Going to have to dig deep on Friday if Tanev is out.   This team has a knack for bouncing back strong.

Really hope tanev is back Friday. He's been a fucking g back there. I was just listening on and off due to work. Did he just take a puck?

Yep slapper to I think the outside of the foot. Maybe ankle. 

I didn’t see it on any replays but that last hit by Robo where their guy threw himself down grabbing his face, it seemed like he got right up after realizing there was no call.

Stankoven can handle the puck but just gets lost - him and the puck - any time he’s challenged. The little dude just gets swallowed. 

he tries that chip and charge around all the time but he never gets by and like you say gets swallowed up by the defenseman.

There really ought to be some sort of penalty for doing that.

Ain't much of a turnout. Do they sell any concessions, specifically booze? 

That was taken way earlier before puck drop. And yes they were selling plenty of booze.

I fear this for his career. He's like a lot of guys that are jitterbugs playing football or basketball. They look neat, but very rarely do they have sustained success. They look fast because they’re quick, but most opponents are as fast (but might not look like it because they’re bigger). Once pros put bodies on guys like that, it’s over no matter the sport. Love his hustle but just not impressed. 

JFC.  He's 21 years old and was a 2nd round pick (#47 overall).  Nobody is expecting him to be a top 10 player in the league. That was never his ceiling.   Many teams that passed never thought he could play at this level period given his size.

he's an energy, waterbug, nasty pest guy.  good to have him.

He would be a top 20 pick in a redraft.   It's fantastic value to have gotten him where we did and he will be a huge asset for this franchise.  Edit: I found a redraft from BEFORE this season that had him as a top 10 pick (#9).  I bet we see that consistently when these lists start getting made more frequently the next couple of years.  

Back to more important things, I randomly came across a twitter doc that tweets about NHL injuries and he thinks Tanev is either a broken bone in his foot (6-8 weeks) or a bone bruise (day to day).  We obviously won't know for sure until he either plays or season is over.  Like Deboer said, fingers crossed.  This team can win a game without him but don't think they can win the cup without him given lack of defensive depth with Hakanpaa seemingly not close (he didn't even travel).

Bro, it’s Rex.

That idiot couldn’t spell sports if we spotted him 4 letters. 

Not surprisingly, Rex has shittier takes in this thread than Chewy.

We can score goals with anybody. We can grind and claw with the best of them.

What we can't do is withstand our own good fortune.

The cloud in my head says that Tanev will be "day to day" until he returns late September to (somebody's) training camp.

Edmonton knows we spread out high and look to the middle on our PP. Stop throwing the puck into the center knot of bodies. They're standing there waiting for it. FFS, get low and press toward the net. Make them come get it.

As mentioned above, Stankoven is 21 and has all of 24 regular season NHL games under his belt and 17 playoff games. He’s nowhere near a finished product.
