I am getting so sick of seeing guys using minor contact in front of the net as an excuse to run the goalie.
Tkachuk has done it numerous times this year on games I have seen. As well as other one off instances. Nurse had minor contact in front of the goal, the puck is already in, is nearly stopped right as he contacts Gustavsson then jumps into him to make the contact way worse. Please NHL, start calling that cheap play.
Also, where is the grit? Nobody goes after McDavid for the chicken wing? Nurse runs Gus and he gets some casual shoves from Zuccarello. How about it Guerin? Where is that team toughness?
11 games to the 4 nations face off. Have to stay afloat and get healthy. Definitely a slog right now for this team

Someone at the very least should’ve given McDavid a Jimmy Superfly elbow.
Keep your stick on the ice...
