I'm ok with this.
I wish Babcock would put Soshnikov on a line with more skill. He can score he just doesn't have any support.

God drat it, Hossa hit it off the bottom of the crossbar, then Anisimov missed a wide open net on the rebound. :argh:

Talbot's been really sharp, too, because the Hawks could easily have 2 or 3 goals this period.

And it took Edmonton eighteen minutes to get a seecond shot on goal. :stare:

His percentages and underlying stats are actually pretty bad, all told. He hasn't had a lot of help this year for sure but he's probably playing where he should be, he tries a lot more plays than he really has the ability to cash.

Hawks are outshooting the Oilers 12-4, but I'm betting they'll immediately give up a goal early in the 2nd.

Also what the gently caress is up with the sound of the boards at the UC?

I'm glad the refs actually called that tie-up, I feel like that's the sort of play that happens all the time lately that refs are letting go.

Man this PP looks bad.

I still think he's just being dragged down by a pair of anchors. I think he'd work well with Kadri for a "piss them off" line.

My guess the sound issue is WGN-related, because there's always something up with their broadcast.

Ben Smith's one stated job is to win faceoffs and he literally just handed it to the other team. Can someone in the org finally step in and waive this scrub?

Today is good so far. A regulation loss by Montreal was a nice start, a regulation win here would be even better.

People are going to make a stink about missing Marner but the story of this period is that Gardiner can't make a good decision, Rielly can't skate and Zaitsev's been fighting the puck for a week.

Totally worth giving Edmonton another power play in a tied game

e: Oilers score off a shot deflected by a Hawk. Great penalty Hartman.

I love how the Hawks have been drilling the post all night without anything going in, then a lucky bounce on a PP gets Edmonton a goal.
