See Red Posted June 8, 2021 Share Posted June 8, 2021 1 hour ago, Brass said: Color me surprised; I know it's happened before the delay of game penalty they assign today but never remember anybody getting penalized for it prior. Learn something new everyday. It used to be at the official's discretion whether or not it was deliberate. I believe if a goalie did it, it was automatic, though. It was obviously intended to stop players from deliberately putting the puck over the glass, but nobody is doing it deliberately. Since doing it is clearly not worth a two minute penalty, every time it happens is accidental where a player is trying to clear it down using the glass. The punishment doesn't fit. Enforce it like icing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And having been to literally hundreds of games, I can confirm that there isn't a rash of players firing pucks into the skulls of the horrified masses in the stands. It's bizarre to me that the NHL nailed it with the icing rule and no line changes, but completely overshot with the delay of game rule. Then again, the NHL Rules and Player Safety Departments are both complete and utter jokes, so I shouldn't be so surprised. I've got a dribbble, check it out if you like my stuff; alternatively, if you hate my stuff, send it to your enemies to punish their insolence!

They almost definitely beat the Habs if he isn't injured, and it's very likely they beat the Jets, too. I've also thought about this scenario... Tavares is still out in the Winnipeg series. Mark Scheifele take out Marner or Matthews instead with the Game 1 hit. Leafs are even more depleted and lose the series or they possibly face Vegas or Colorado down Tavares and Marner (or Matthews). The hockey gods and Dubas' poor cap management really screwed them this year.

Glover Posted June 9, 2021 Share Posted June 9, 2021 Hurricanes still have a bit to go before they are legitimate Stanley Cup threats. I'm not sure where the team can be realistically upgraded when you consider their cap situation. It will be an interesting off-season with Dougie set to hit the open market. Nedeljkovic and Svechnikov will both be RFA's, and at the very least Svech should be in position for a long-term deal sooner rather than later. Necas will be a RFA after next season too, and he is a guy you also would prefer to keep and build around. Some tough decisions to be made, but it sure as hell beats missing the playoffs for the better part of a decade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought they were going to be the toughest matchup Tampa had between this and last postseason. I think that it only went five games says more about how well the Lightning — especially Vasi — are playing right now than anything. Hoping for a Boston win tonight to push it seven and then indifferent beyond that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless you could guarantee the Islanders win Game 7, I respectfully disagree. I'd be just as happy with that series ending tonight. I consider the Bruins a tougher matchup and, while I like the Lightning's chances against either, I'd just as soon not tempt fate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ehh, if Rask is hurt, I think Boston's the preferred matchup given the state of their defense, especially since TB seems to have their number anyway. I'd rather avoid the Barry Trotz team, anyway. I try not to care either way, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brass Posted June 10, 2021 Share Posted June 10, 2021 That was easily one of the worst periods of hockey I’ve ever seen a team play - and I’ve watched a LOT of Hartford Whalers games. Their hockey IQ is non-existent. The Islanders are in their face, playing a great game, and the Bruins have done nothing to respond to that. They’re playing with absolutely no heart. They had a great first ten minutes, but now they’re over thinking everything and I believe this game could easily be 6-1, 7-1 right now. One more period to see what happens, but the teams needs an overhaul, starting at the top, and I hope it happens this summer. On 4/10/2017 at 3:05 PM, Rollins Man said: what the hell is ccslc?
