RedRenesis Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 Surprise, surprise, in his first game back from the 9 game suspension, Trevor Gillies gets tossed for a check from behind.Admittedly, I haven't seen the hit, so I can't comment whether it was deserved or not.It was a dumb play, an Islander got boarded by Clutterbuck and Gillies jumped and checked him into the boards in retaliation. Checking from behind? Debatable. Dirty hit? In the respect that he jumped to deliver the hit. Dumb because he is in his first game since being banned for nine for doing effectively the same thing? Yes. Anyone else, and they might get a game for the hit, in Gillies case and imo the NHL is about as likely to make an example out of him as they did the last go around, I say he gets 5 tops.

CJR Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 I'm not sure I care for what's, for lack of a better term, supermediocrity.The NHL calls that "parity." FantasyHockeySim.com || DetroitHockey.Net || DetroitHockey.Net FHL || cjr.dev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sport Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 Hockey is by nature a more paritous sport than basketball. Combine that with the fact that the talent of the NHL isn't colluding with each other and good players are spread around then it's easy to see why we've reached this level. I'd much rather have "super-mediocrity" than what the NBA has right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Six Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 Sometimes it's comforting to know that some teams are good and others blow. Yes. No matter how rough this world gets, I've always taken great comfort in knowing that the Washington Wizards are a bad team. It just makes me feel safe during these trying times.

Jones said there was 700 players in the NHL and one meathead(Gillies)I think Gillies should be expelled from the league along with the other meatheads such as Jarko Ruttu, Matt Cooke, etc. The Gillies hit was completely ridiculous as he launched himself at the player with both elbows up and a 100% intent to injure. This guy is the essence of goon. He thinks he's cool because he has that stupid mustache, and yet he alone is the deffinition of what needs to be cleaned up in hockey. Do we really expect the NHL to do anything. I doubt he'll even get suspended, that's just how ridiculous the league enforcement is! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee. Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 A face to face meeting with the league is usually a harbinger of a good-sized suspension.Then again... Welcome to DrunjFlix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Admiral Posted March 4, 2011 Share Posted March 4, 2011 I wonder how far Toews has to climb the leaderboard for MVP consideration. He's making a strong case down the stretch, but he's not going to snag it trailing Phil Kessel. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TFoA Posted March 4, 2011 Share Posted March 4, 2011 Don't care about records or rankings. The Thrashers are the worst team in the league right now. They have been stinking up the joint since the All-Star break & there's no signs of things improving. Can't score for (they've been getting tons of shots, but it literally takes a miracle for it to get past whoever's in net), every mistake they make on defense results in a goal, they don't get any of those lucky bounces, & just fold under adversity for the most part. It's like fan repellent.After the performances they had before the All-Star break, they really had me going when it came to hopes of the playoffs. Then the failboat anchored in Blueland once more, & it's been a wrap ever since. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don Posted March 4, 2011 Share Posted March 4, 2011 Jason Arnott tallies his first goal as a Washington Capital, a GWG in the 3rd period. 2 pts in 2 games for the new 2C in DC.

habsfan1 Posted March 4, 2011 Share Posted March 4, 2011 Carey Price offered another great performance and another shutout. It's nice when the Habs play this way.I wish I was there to see the game in Florida, with the other 10 000 Canadiens fans already in attendance. That would have been awesome!!

crashcarson15 Posted March 4, 2011 Share Posted March 4, 2011 Is tired of continually saying, "Maybe next year" when it comes to the Blue Jackets.I'll put the collapse if you'd call it, on the back of one play - Nashville's 3rd goal off of maybe the juiciest rebound attempt I've ever seen.Glad to see Upshall playing well for the CBJ, but it's going to be all for naught when he walks after a disappointing finish to the season.Jackets probably have to go 14-5 the rest of the way to make the playoffs. This includes games against Detroit, Boston, Washington, Chicago, Vancouver, (Red Hot) New Jersey, and finally, the 81st game in Nashville. Yeah, I'm not really seeing it. Can't believe the Jackets just lost to the Oilers again. About as :censored:ty of a performance as the first time they visited Edmonton. Almost have to go 5-0 in your next five if you're the Jackets - in Calgary, a home-and-home with the Blues (another place the Jackets can't seem to win), hosting Los Angeles, and in Raleigh to play the 'Canes. Yeah, I'm not seeing it. As some random dude said on Twitter, "March is the new December." I knew this was gonna happen the second I heard, "and in net for the Jackets, Matty Garon" on Sunday afternoon in Nashville. Don't say I didn't tell ya so oddball.There's always next year... that's now the 10th time we've said that as Jackets fans... I mean, all I want is a freaking playoff win this year. Just one game. *sigh* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
