GDT ***LA Kings @ Edmonton Oilers GDT 4/14/25 7:00pm on FanDuel & NHL Network***

I’ll withhold judgment until the final buzzer, but if there’s no retribution for that cheap shot on Byfield in the next five minutes, I’m going to be very, very agitated.
They have to look at the circumstances also with these two teams facing off in the playoffs you take a cheap shot on one of the best players to knock them out of the playoffs.
 
It's safe for the Kings to sit on their lead this time. Especially after all that fracas from the past two periods. And this is a complete opposite of the two periods as well as there's no penalty calls this time. Looks like the coaches told their players to behave.

Nurse might miss game 1 of the series. -Might-. Which is why I said it is foolish to let that play go unanswered on the ice.
 
Game over and hold that L, Deadmonton. You petulant nimrods got shut out again by LA. Thanks, Kuemper and Rittich, for getting that shared SO. Too bad there wasn't a message for that cheap-shot on Byfield, but let's savor the moment with this W. LA now has secured 2nd place in the division for this season.

Now on to Seattle, and I wager Rittich will start in net this time for LA, since this is a B2B.
 
If Byfield is fine, and his teammates knew that from the 2nd intermission, I suppose I can understand the lack of response. Just get out of the game unscathed. If Byfield is actually concussed or otherwise injured though, then god help this pack of pussies, because they’re going to get dummied in the first round by Edmonton.

I was commenting to my wife we don't have a.. goon. Jeannot will be missed in the series if he's out. Oilers have no problem gooning it up which unfortunately with superstar talent is a deadly playoff combo.

Hope Nyssa42 and Liz4LA had a great time and good luck getting to Seattle (and other places) for tomorrows game. Really hoping Q is precautionary and the NHL really needs to decide how much of this they want in the game. With all the focus on head shots we used to have, and the sensitivity the league has always had regarding using your stick on to the head, it would make total sense that there's no supplemental discipline....
