Northern Wish Posted April 18, 2012 Report Share Posted April 18, 2012 Martin Erat is so exciting, I am almost happy to see them move into Round 2. Almost.My Wings just don't have any spark this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheSloth Posted April 18, 2012 Report Share Posted April 18, 2012 Not to rub it in or anything Sean but I was sure the Wings were going to win that game after they tied it up. I just felt it.Really enjoying watching the Predators (despite Weber's first game antics). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Low Roller Posted April 19, 2012 Report Share Posted April 19, 2012 Of course you were wondering.Epic bed-shitting by the Flyers yesterday. I still hope that they knock out Pity City in five games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheSloth Posted April 19, 2012 Report Share Posted April 19, 2012 It's going to be an interesting game 5 with Neal back in the line-up. I hope Philly spends a shit load of time in the box like they did last night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ollie Posted April 21, 2012 Report Share Posted April 21, 2012 (edited) 25 games for Torres seems to be an over reaction of epic proportions. I mean, when the previously highest suspension this playoff is 5 games, 25 seems to be on the extreme end of the scale. Shanahan is a joke.

Booche Posted April 21, 2012 Report Share Posted April 21, 2012 Repeat offender'd.I love the suspension. It was extremely late and he left his feet. Get this type of crap out of the game, pronto. I wonder what you would be saying if it was Spezza who got bowled over by Torres. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ollie Posted April 21, 2012 Report Share Posted April 21, 2012 It's the inconsistency that bugs me. And didn't Shanahan once equate 1 playoff game to multiple regular season games (can't remember the number)?Anyway, this is a good piece on the matter:http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/nhl-puck-daddy/raffi-torres-suspended-25-games-putting-marian-hossa-170202850.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badams Posted April 21, 2012 Report Share Posted April 21, 2012 If they truly want to get this crap out of the game this is the kind of suspension that should have been handed out all along. I have no problem with it and we will see how serious the league is when a star player is the one who delivers a hit like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Northern Wish Posted April 21, 2012 Report Share Posted April 21, 2012 I think its appropriate. That hit checked off everything on the list for Shanny: intent to injure resulting in a serious injury, interference, leaving his feet, repeat offender.Finally! And Bye Bye Wings- it was a fun year. I finally got to Joe Louis so maybe I was the curse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Booche Posted April 21, 2012 Report Share Posted April 21, 2012 It's the inconsistency that bugs me. Please show me another recent example of a player hitting another player late, leaving his feet all the while he is a repeat repeat repeat repeat repeat offender. Shanny had to come down hard on Torres and he did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanada Kev Posted April 22, 2012 Report Share Posted April 22, 2012 Totally appropriate suspension. I wouldn't put all the heat on Shanahan though. It's Bettman and the owners who really decide what goes down. Fact is that ratings are UP. They don't want their "stars" to be suspended during this part of the season. This is not a court of law in a balanced judicial system. Precedent can be thrown out the window at any given time based on the criteria they use to "explain" their suspensions/non-suspensions. What has gone on in this first round is continually called "old-time hockey" and it's not. It's today's hockey and is being played within the limits that are set out by the league and the level of refereeing that enforces those boundaries. If there is something that needs to be fixed, they need to address it. If something they thought would work isn't, then do something about it. Seems they do this to one level in the regular season and then shit the bed in the playoffs. Ollie, i totally agree that the inconsistency in controlling/policing this is frustrating. badams, i totally agree and can't wait to see what happens when a "star" player does this and how punishment is delivered by the league. Low Roller, I think Fleury must have had some vaginoplasty or something 'cause that 5-hole got a bit tight compared to Jenna's Looking forward to a fun afternoon of hockey now ps - congrats to the Sens for capping another win against the #1 seed. Makes me puke in my mouth a little, but it's hard not to smile when a complete underdog cause grief to a #1 team in playoffs. They still are your team Ottawa, not Canada's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
