Brass Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 Zdeno Chara needs to be suspended for the rest of the season.Even though I wouldn't mind him being gone for the rest of the season, you can't be serious. There was no intent to injure on that play. Just a bad location to hit someone.He drove his head into the turnbuckle!He was finishing his hit and riding him to the boards. I can almost guarantee that Chara, someone who's almost never physical, nevermind whether or not he plays clean or dirty, didn't even take into account the glass corner. It was a routine play someone would make to hit someone. Chara misjudged the angle he was hitting Pacioretty. He probably thought Pacioretty was just gonna bend over the bench and not slide into the glass.Awful things happen in sports. This is one of them.

He probably thought Pacioretty was just gonna bend over the bench and not slide into the glass.Awful things happen in sports. This is one of them.I'll have to see the check again to make sure, but I think Chara pushed a little bit at the end of his check and Pacioretty had no chance to miss the turnbuckle.Even if it's an awful and unfortunate event, you can't dismiss that there's bad blood between those two, especially since the last two meetings between both teams. Pacioretty cross-checked Chara after his OT goal. Chara didn't like that at all. Last game (the 8-6 Bruins win), he was blatantly going after Pacioretty every chance he got, throwing fists everywhere.With that, don't tell me it was just an accident, or finishing his check. He definitely knew who was coming and he most likely gave it a little extra nudge... You know, the nudge you give to someone who really pisses you off.Colin Campbell is a attending the game... It'll be interesting to see if there will be a suspension handed out by the league.

CS85 Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 Vokoun had the night of his life. The Hawks put 40-odd shots in his face, and he was all over the place. The Blackhawks basically had a 2-period power play of bombarding Vokoun with shot after shot, yet he only allowed 2 in the 2nd period. Give the hawks credit, they rebounded nicely after a horse- first period which Crawford's gotta forget, but this one is a tip-of-the-cap game to Vokoun.

Really bad Interference of course and it ended up in a scary situation, Bell Centre needs to change it's configuration because I doubt this will be the last time somebody gets piledrived in Jean Beliveau's seats or at least he sits around that place.

Don Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 It was a tough hit at a real unfortunate spot in the rink. Fine with what he got, if there was no call or just a minor on the play I could see a suspension.

oddball Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 The Chara hit was dirty. Chara was trying to make a statement to Pacioretty. There is history between the two and you can't ignore the issue. Was Chara trying to hurt Pacioretty? Yes and no. I don't think it was to injure him, but to let Pacioretty know he wasn't going to deal with his crap. Should Chara be suspended? Absolutely. 5-10 games. He drove Pacioretty's head into the support. What is the difference between that and a hit from behind? If the NHL wants to do something about concussions, you can't let Chara get away without a nice sized suspension. Do I dislike Chara? No. But that was a dirty hit as he came from behind and drove Pacioretty into the support. He knew the glass was there, don't give me the crap that he didn't know it was there. Do I expect a suspension? No, because the NHL set a standard of well... what is their standard. As a matter of fact, I expect Colin Cambell to suspend Pacioretty and Ray Borque for the hit. Pacioretty for being there, and Ray Borque for being a Boston Bruin defenseman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedRenesis Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 Even with the hit being on Pacioretty Im not convinced yet it was dirty. The one thing though I dont like is the use of this all encompassing major interference penalty the refs drop on a player when his action injures another and it doesnt qualify as another major.

NJTank Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 It was a clean play, it was just unfortunate the post at the end of the bench was there. If Chara gets suspended it would show once again, just how little Bettman understands hockey. www.sportsecyclopedia.com For the best in sports history go to the Sports E-Cyclopedia at http://www.sportsecyclopedia.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
