Yeah fellas, I’m sorry but we finally got a first line 🥲. Brings a tear to my eye, because the league will burn beneath our feet
Ok these are well timed ole
I still want a Suzuki hat trick though!
PP TIME
refs really like our PP
Now let’s get one of those for Primeau , hey I didn’t say it .
guys, i think i hear cole caufield boss music after the penalty🤔
The ducks are playing TERRIBLE
D-d-did they finally fix the pp? I don’t know what to do with my hands
Yikes that team really wants to finish last they don’t take any chances at getting out tank
Is the Ducks coach B.J. Blazkowicz?
PP2 will probably start but let’s hope for a hat trick with another feed from Slaf
Anaheim coach looks like he went through a 3 hours Hollywood make-up session to age him 20 years.
Slaf eats pressure for breakfast man I love it
steps up to the challenge every time
Man another powerplay. I’m already finished.
Is this what’s like to play against the Habs? PP after PP 😭
-Looks into mirror
Nick Hat Trick
Nick Hat Trick
Nick Hat Trick
Friendly reminder that Juraj Slafkovsky is 19 years old.
Wow dirty play on Caufield fuck you
I fucking love this first line so damn much
Did people really want to lose to these guys? What the fuck.
In the new NHL a 4 goal lead isn’t safe enough, so let’s go back with PP1
Lmao nvm ig we fumbling this one
slaf is like IM OPEN
too much passes
WHY WONT MATHESON PASS TO SLAF??
No goals on a powerplay? Come on, slackers! /s
That pp was ass
Oh look, Matheson found his eye patch again.
Did our PP1 played all the power plays tonight?
That powerplay😭 I really want Suzuki to finally get his hatty
but the anaheim player touched it? doesn’t that cancel the hand pass?
Wow. I’ve never seen Suzuki DEMANDING the puck like that lol
Matheson just don’t want to pass to Slaf, at all.
Maybe it’s just me, but cole as net front seems like a weird move
PP1 looks tired… Ducks strategy finally starting to pay off
WHY DOES HE NEVER PASS TO SLAF
good play by pezz to keep possession
Slaf is such a fucking beauty man i remember arguing with people as to why HuGo should pick him over Wright.
Caufield has had 10 shots on goal?
roy is genuinely good
Tanner Pearson feels so old but it’s just because everyone else is so young
this is without a doubt the most enjoyable and (so far) perfect game so far this season
Roy IQ and stick are elite
