The lack of points is more a case of just not having chances go in because that line probably has the most zone time of any for the Oilers at 5 on 5. Also, he might be 6'1 but he's still skinny so when Noeller calls him a big kid it's not really true, he's slighter than a lot of guys, but still has a bit of an edge to his game. Not ever going to be a bit hitter or a physical threat but he's willing to stick his nose in the greasy areas. I believe I said "he's solid", and he is. He is a lot tougher than people give him credit for. He's not Lucic big, but he's a solid kid. Ever since junior, people have been calling him a puss, and that if you hit him, he'll go away. Simply not true. He gives as good as he gets.

Think I saw a gif of that. What an A hole move that was. The little guy was actually looking frightened. Then he laughed. intimidating a little guy..... something only a bully would do. Oilers fans seem to think the goalie stole that one. Edited April 29, 20178 yr by Mark F
April 29, 20178 yr comment_260253 at this rate the game will end before the draft lottery starts but we have to put up with 30 minutes of filler
April 30, 20178 yr comment_260318 I think we're seeing the end of the San Jose and Washington core. Both teams have managed to keep the same cast of characters together for years now and it's just been years of failure. I thought with Letang out and having played a long playoffs and WC of Hockey that the Pens would be tired, and this would be Washington's year. With that pathetic showing last night, it's clear, Ovechkin isn't a leader, the Caps have no character and changes need to be made. Now Ottawa, there's a team with character. Wow.
