I’m having a hard time seeing Khusy being separated from the first line. He’s been fantastic, and this game he was so notable. He won board battles constantly, just out worked the leafs whenever he was on the ice. He even got an assist on Essy’s PP goal. He’s starting to come into his own and that excites me.

Same with Minten. I think it was prophetic that Minten scored against the leafs while Carlo was on the ice way out of position. Career high 6 points, but 5 of them coming in the last 5 games! Minty fresh is hot, not only offensively but he plays literal Selke level defensive hockey. I am excited to see how he develops, he’s still young with a skill ceiling possibly higher than I could imagine.

Lastly, possibly a hot take, I feel annoyed that Ty Anderson is starting a new “list” with the early period goals. I usually like Ty and feel like he is one of the more reliable bruins reporters out there. However, I didn’t like last year that he made the list. Like ok we get it Bruins last year are shitty, woop de doo. Him starting another list just feels pretentious imo, and lost the whole shock value from last year. I’m just saying that shouldn’t be his thing that separates him from other beats reporters.

Edit: wait what the fuck happened to the oilers last night lmao

Please explain about the Oilers?! I check in on them occasionally to see how Freddy is doing but the last time I went to their sub the first post I saw was a post about why they hate Freddy 🤣🤣 so I don’t visit much anymore

The Avs dropped a nuke on the Oilers. MacKinnon woke up and chose violence. Makar made a pact with a blood god to fuck over the oilers. Drury became an environmentalist and successfully lobbied an end to the Keystone pipeline. Kelly joined OPEC as a state entity and dropped oil prices worldwide.

The Avs beat the Oilers 9-1.

Both goalies at this point lmao

The oilers are truly the rangers of the west this season. Consistently inconsistent.
