Leon Dresser to face Edmonton Oilers in playoffs
#LeonDraisaitl #talksfacing #EdmontonOilers #Playoffs "I don't want to play us in the first round or the playoffs." - Edmonton forward Leon Dresser, April 12 This photo of Draiisaitl after the Edmonton Oilers went 5-1 from the Minnesota Wild after it lost 2-1 in the shootout to the Colorado Avalanche this morning Certainly not aging well, this team will be at the start of the Western Conference playoffs. But while this part of the quote draws ears, eyeballs, and clicks, it lacks context on its own. What Draisaitl actually said was: "I think we know that if we play well and stick to what we're good at, we're a tough team to beat. - Continue reading below "Obviously we have a lot of offense, but if we continue like this, we want to defend and stick to our details. I don't want to play us in the first round or the playoffs in general. It's important that we stick to our details. , and take pride in doing the little things well." The problem with the Oilers against the Wild is that they didn't play well. They didn't stick to what they were good at. They don't care about the details and get the little things right. All of this is missing from the Excel Power Center, as is the context in the abridged citation that some people make fun of on the web today about Draisaitl. What did you say Just after Duncan Keith's brain fart, Frederick Gaudreau made a blind backhand save at the net in Minnesota's 1-0 goal, Oilers too sloppy Well, they're not going to win against a team that's so good at wild. Keith was minus-4 on the night, while partner Evan Bouchard was a mess, minus-3. The Oilers weren't terrible, they weren't good enough with the details of what Draisaitl said. There's a blunder here, there's too much open ice in the defensive zone. Mikko Koskinen was no problem, but he wasn't at his best - like Kevin Fiala's 3-0 goal. - Continue reading below They didn't give the barbarians a ton of chances, just too many really good ones. In short, compared to a competitive team like Minnesota, there is little room for error. "We think we're the creators of a lot of counter-attack opportunities. Only our breakout version, our online game. We can get better," said 19-8-3 coach Jay Woodcroft as he replaced Dave Tippet. "I would say that we try to maintain an attitude of just spending one day at a time. Today is not our best time, we don't have that
Latest Bruins injury update on David Pasternak, Hamps Lindholm and more
Here are the latest injury updates from the Bruins on David Pasternak, Hampus Lindholm and Matt Gerzelsick ahead of Tuesday night's game against the Blues. #LatestBruins #injuryupdates #DavidPastrnak #Hampus The Boston Bruins will be missing several key players when they take on the top St. Louis Blues at the TD Garden on Tuesday night. Bruins right wing David Pasternak was injured last week against the Columbus Blue Jackets, left the game early and has not played since. Defenseman B Hampus Lindholm suffered a lower body injury against the Detroit Red Wings last week. He failed to finish the game and has not played since. Neither player will be in the squad against the Blues. "I don't have a lot of new stuff. I think they held off a bit longer than I originally diagnosed," Pasternak and Lindholm's Cassidy said. "Other than that, I wish I had better news. I still don't think it's going to be long-term. But when we first got reports from Detroit and Columbus last week, I think both went further. Far." Both Pastrnak and Lindholm played before Tuesday's Boston morning skating event, so that's a little encouraging. Matt Gerzelsik ceded Sunday's loss to the Washington Capitals after a first-half injury. He did not resume action. The 28-year-old defender also won't play against the Blues, but he could return as early as Thursday night when the Bs host the Ottawa Senators. "Feeling a little better, but our goal is Thursday," Cassidy said of Grzelcyk. "Clifton will go in. We'll arrange some people." 🎥 Coach Cassidy Provides Update on David Pastrnak, Hampus Lindholm & Matt Grzelcyk Ahead of #NHLBruins vs St. Louis Blues: kfEVWm0zmY - Boston Bruins, April 12, 2022 Those injuries are worrisome with the 2022 Stanley Cup playoffs just a few weeks away. The Bruins' regular-season schedule ends on April 29. Unless Pasternack and Lindholm are at or near 100 percent healthy, the B's aren't going to make much progress in the playoffs. Boston has only two natural defenders, Mike Reilly and Derek Fobot, on the left, without Lindholm and Gerzelsick. Unsurprisingly, the power game has struggled with 0:16 in the past four games, with Pasternak being eliminated. His 14 power game goals are six more than any other player on the Bears roster.
Canucks 'believe is the word' after they avert disaster for Golden Knights
Elias Pettersson's global night ended with teammate Quinn Hughes scoring 51 seconds in overtime as the Vancouver Canucks scored in overtime on Tuesday Survived the third crash with a 5-4 victory over the Golden Knights. #Afteravoiding #disastervs #GoldenKnights #belief VANCOUVER — On paper, the Vegas Golden Knights have the better team. The Vancouver Canucks have the best players on the ice. Also a better goalie. Elias Paterson's World Night ended with teammate Quin Hughes scoring 51 seconds in overtime, Canucks survive third quarter to go 5-4 in overtime beat the Golden Knights. The game had major playoff implications for both teams -- the win allowed the Canucks to continue their unlikely Stanley Cup berth -- and reflected the mood of the Vancouver National Hockey League season ups and downs. The Canucks beat the Cavaliers 3-1 in the second half, and Peterson was the resurgent star who may have played the best hockey since joining the NHL four years ago, scoring all three goals. But they couldn't hold a two-goal lead in the third quarter when Metro Vancouver native Shea Theodore scored twice, including one with 42 seconds left, and Vegas made six of five. But the Canucks had lost four straight overtime games nine days ago, including a 3-2 win over the Golden Knights at Rogers Arena in which Vegas goalie Robin Reiner was in overtime. Conor Garland won in overtime after a save failed to find the ball. Hughes found it at his feet and calmly slid it away from Reiner before falling back into the open net. "Destructive is an inappropriate word, but it's definitely disappointing," Hughes said as he gambled away the lead in the third quarter. "Everyone knows the importance of the game. It's a shame though . . . our group didn't get fired all year. I think from my point of view, the only concern I have is that our overtime has not been good lately. So here's me The only thing that comes to mind is trying to have a good transition. Hughes' move is the Canucks' second move in overtime, and it's important because the Golden Knights can't make the switch as Vancouver retains possession while bringing new players to the ice . Garland sped past Theodore, took Lehner's chance, and Hughes was completely out of control on the rebound. "It's really important," said Hughes, who missed two games last week with an undisclosed non-COVID illness after scoring his biggest regular-season goal as Canuck. "We know where they are in the table and where we are. It would have been nice to have it in the rules, but in the end we still have two points and that's what we want to achieve." owns a Western Conference wild card team
Evan De Kane, Ryan Hartman, Edmonton Oilers, Minnesota Wild
#EvanderKane #RyanHartman #EdmontonOilers #MinnesotaWild Edmonton Oilers winger Evan De Kane and Minnesota Wild forward Ryan Hartman continued to argue in postgame comments after they were ruled out in Tuesday's 5-1 win over the Oilers. Both Kane and Hartman were given 10 minutes of misconduct, and in addition to the rough minor, Kane was given an additional cross-check of the minor with less than 10 minutes remaining on Tuesday. The incident started with Kane checking on Kirill Kapritsov after he fought off-ball Keller Yamamoto at the wild blue line. Several Wild members pounced on Kane, who exchanged jabs with the players in the scrum. Hartman jumps on Kane when he gets engaged to Matszucarello. The pair then attempted to throw punches while being restrained by the linesman before being separated. "He shot Kirill from the back in a very vulnerable spot," Hartman said of Kane. "It turns out we had five people there. They had no one there to help him." As the two were escorted off the ice, Hartman turned Kane away. The striker said after the game that any resulting fine was "worth it". Ryan Hartman on Evan der Kane and protecting Kirill Kapritsov: "It turns out we had five guys out there. None of them were there to help him. I don't think any of them would defend him ." Hartman says if he gets fined for his posture, it will be 'worth it' - Michael Russo, April 13, 2022 After the police had already intervened, Kane had his own reaction to the Hartman intervention. "All five guys used it, they couldn't trip me up," Kane said. "With that said, I definitely want to get out of this shackles. "These little guys, they want to play hard, but they wait for the linesman to come in. The Wilds and Oilers won't meet again this season, and at the time of writing, they may not meet again until the Western Conference finals.
NHL sits down to Penguins' Malkin 4 to recap Predators' Borowiecki
The NHL has suspended Pittsburgh Penguins forward Evgeni Malkin for four games for checking out Nashville Predators defenseman Mark Borowiecki. #NHLsuspends #Penguins #Malkin4 #gamescrosschecking Evgeni Malkin's four-game suspension for checking the face of Nashville's Mark Borowiecki was a major blow to the Pittsburgh Penguins as they looked to maintain a playoff spot. Malkin will miss upcoming games against the New York Islanders and Boston Bruins after the NHL's player safety department announced a suspension following a disciplinary hearing on Monday. In a video explaining the suspension, the league called Malkin's cross-check "retaliatory and aggressive." Malkin was initially given just four minutes of a small double after hitting Borowitzki in the mouth with a racket late in the second quarter on Sunday. "Emotional Game" "It was an emotional game," Penguins coach Mike Sullivan told reporters after the game. "It's physical, and sometimes this kind of thing happens. It's a physical game, especially in front of the net in the area where it happens. "Obviously we don't want our best players to be in the box, but these guys are competitive guys who will fight back. We'd rather have them on the ice. When they're on the ice, they give It's a better chance for us, of course. But one of the things we like about Geno is his competitiveness, so when you play emotional games like ours today, these things happen." This is Malkin's second suspension following a one-game suspension in 2019 for high stickiness. He has been fined 3 times. The suspension cost him $190,000 in salary. He is eligible for a comeback against Detroit on April 23. The Penguins beat the Predators in overtime for a four-game run. They've lost seven of their last 10 games and are in danger of falling from third in the Mets to a wild-card spot in the Eastern Conference. Malkin missed the first 34 games of the season while recovering from knee surgery. Since his season debut on January 11, the 35-year-old Russian center has become a scorer with 17 goals and 20 assists in 37 games.

Mavs optimist Luka Doncic's calf strain not serious
Mavericks optimist Luka Doncic's calf strain not serious - RealGM Wiretap #MavericksOptimistic #LukaDoncic #sCalf #StrainIs When Luka Doncic limped away in the Dallas Mavericks' season-ending win over the San Antonio Spurs, there were fears of the worst.

Winnipeg Jets Dave Lowry Paul Stastney Ottawa Senator
#WinnipegJets #DaveLowry #PaulStastny #OttawaSenators Is there any reason to believe the Jets can make the playoffs? The Winnipeg Jets got off to a slow start in the first half on Sunday, going 1-1 to a 12-5 victory over the Ottawa Senators. However, an impassioned speech from interim head coach Dave Lowry turned the tide, and the Jets bounced back in Game 2, beating the Senators 12-8 and taking a 3-1 lead in the final inning to end at 4 -3 wins. "We got scolded after the first quarter," said Jets veteran Paul Stastney, who scored in the second. "It wakes everyone up. We've needed this for a while, so it's great to have it." Lowry said after the game that he had no shortage of criticism for his team after a slow start in a must-win game. "I didn't like our first period," Lowry said. "I don't like our hockey management, I don't like the rhythm of our game, I don't like the urgency of our game. "With their support, we got answers in the second quarter, and in the second quarter, we did what we wanted to do at the start of the game." Sunday's win puts Winnipeg seven points behind the Dallas Stars for the final playoff spot in the Western Conference, with nine games remaining on the season. Winnipeg won one in four games, which Lowry credited to Conor Helleback's performance. "It's a goalie win," Lowry said. "He gave us a chance in the first third. He was probably the only one who started on time. He gave us a chance to start and then made some big saves for us at the end of the game." The Jets will return to the ice on Monday night, when they face the Montreal Canadiens in the only game on the NHL schedule.
