He went down like he was shot, so that probably didn’t help.

Haha. Good.

It’s amazing to me that the Canadian Olympic squad hasn’t reached out to McDavid about joining their diving team

When’s the in-person hearing?

I don’t even care about the score I’m just happy the Leafs steamrolled McDrai. They were neutered.

They got under McDavid’s skin last night and I loved every second of it!

Is Tim Strudel the most influential player in hockey?
LostBeneathMySkin
No that is a pretty clear flop. He was trying to draw calls all night glad the refs weren’t having it.

Edmonton plays like a basketball team so many God damn picks and interferences.
Heck it’s how they got two of their goals last night

People – sorry I thought the title was clear sarcasm. McDavid is pushing off of Holmberg, feels contact from Holmberg skating, and goes down looking at the refs.

Oh no hockey happened.

That’s hockey, leafs need to do this stuff in the playoffs

He knows to go down anytime something comes near his skates. See it every oilers game.

The Oilers have an elite PP. They are also a league average team 5v5. Therefore, their players follow the lead of McDavid and dive/embellish all the time. Same story we saw with Tampa in the playoffs. Remember that phantom high stick in game 6. Difference with Tampa is they had elite goaltending and defense.
There was a period last night where McDavid/Draisitl were on the ice. Penalty got called and they still managed to play another 1:50 of the PP. That team lives/dies by the PP.

McDavid also sold it harder than a used car salesman. Refs may have called it a wash instead of calling both penalties.

Well according to a lot of hockey fans getting away with greasy shit is a skill so I say we own it.
germy-rogirs
Lol did the same thing with Mcmanns elbow/arm when he was backchecking

You went down like a sack of potatoes!

I give it 9.7/10
burningxmaslogs
A guy fell down trying to stop on ice. That’s not a missed tripping call, if anything refs could have called an embellishment penalty on Mcdavid
HatHaunting3205
Fuck I’m sorry mc David I can’t skate that well either
GritGrinder
Mcdavid has an amazingly hard time staying on his feet. He would probably get even more calls if he didn’t embellish so much and look so helpless at times.
rollsoftape
He’s a bit of a flopper.

This team can be frustrating at times but the one thing they’ve done really well over the past 3-4 years is contain McDavid and Draisatl. Even despite McDavid getting 3 assists

What a goon Pontus is. /s

Horrible dive. This shit has become ingrained in the league now.
Dismal-Frosting
are you stupid? that’s a dive all day
Fastlane19
If that’s what you call rattling a superstar only proves that the league has become soft. Crosby use to get completely destroyed with the stick work of the opposition

This happens a million times a game, you’re just seeing it because it’s mcdavid

I mean not really
That’s Pontus “Brad Marchand” Holmberg for you
Shouldn’t have touched Holmbergs shoulder.
Mcdavid was angling to earn a call that whole interaction.
I’m embarrassed for him
McDiver at it again
McFlop, all night long
I mean based off this call from earlier in the game that was actually a holding call that McDavid got away with.

Nurse was doing all kinds of bullshit all night
