There isn't a clear edge for either team imo. Ducks would have it on D but Fowler, Vatanen and Lindholm are all various degrees of dinged up.
To me the key is keeping Getzlafs line in check. He's a beast when he's rolling and Eaves/Rackell can score. Not worried about Kesler on Mcdvaid. Kesler can check alright but eventually chasing Jesus around will wear him out, plus he's a little rat(frank). I think Drycycle is going to have a massive series.

Can't stop McDavid. Can only slow him down.
He will get you sooner or later.

If Talbot continues to play the way he has this could go either way.

I am not sure why there is so much hype of Kesler laying into McDavid... ITs not the first time McDavid has faced a defensive center FFS... And I am certain if the abuse gets excessive someone will just take out that diving boys knees...

I was a regular commentor there before starting my own blog then getting hired here at HB and eventually at ON too. Maybe the circle of life will finally complete and I'll just go back to being a commentor again after they finally have had enough of me.

They also have that turd Bieksa let's hope that the stench of former Canuck ineptitude is still on these two.

My first move to make Canada great again is to move the entire country to Eastern Standard time so I can watch more games.

Hey IHBB, if you're around this is for you!

I'm the first to admit when I'm wrong and I'll accept that my original stance on the Eaves trade undersold the value of adding a player on the type of hot streak he's been on. Even if he were to go ice cold in this round and the Ducks were to lose out, he supplemented their team's scoring well and helped push them into 1st in the Pacific and through the first round. Considering that, the cost to acquire was far more reasonable than I expected.

I maintain that my stance wasn't outrageous as we've seen many hot streaks suddenly end upon being traded at the deadline through history, but in this case I was incorrect in my assessment of the metrics surrounding his scoring.

That aside, I'm still not used to being invested in playoff hockey AND following the draft. There's too much content to consume and too little time!

Jero would do well as a bi-coastal
