Just for the hell of it |
Caps will miss Wilson but as long as their top guys continue to step up they will be fine. The Wilson hit has taken away from what was a huge goal with a minute left. Scored and assisted the Caps top two players. Following up the shot by tapping the puck out of the air was amazing hand-eye coordination. Ovie has been playing some of his best hockey this year and has continued into the playoff. Now we need to get Oshie and Kuznetsov to step up a little more. Although I think both are playing a little injured. _____________________________________ Because in the end, you won’t remember the time you spent working in the office or mowing your lawn.

Great article on banning head shots. Spoiler: The last paragraph is perfect. The NHL Wouldn't Lose Fans By Banning Hits to the Head.

I agree wholeheartedly. If the player safety assoc really wants to put a stop to head injuries, this would do it. "You have the right not to be killed..." The Clash, "Know Your Rights" | |||

Right there next to Ovi. They all do it. The refs need to call the initial infractions more & not just the retaliation, but for some reason they don't. “Agnostic, gun owning, conservative, college educated hillbilly” | |||

Didn't say Crosby is a saint. I just said he would not check someone to the extent that they miss potentially 3+ rounds of playoff games. Does he cheap shot? Sure! And deserves a sweater-over-the-head beat down for it if he does it. Same with Ovi...he use to charge every flippin' time he checked...he plainly JUMPED INTO the other player CONSTANTLY and the league did NOTHING about it; he's gotten better about it. That's why I have no respect for him, though I wish the Caps well just for the sake of coach Trotz. That is only after my B's are eliminated... "If you’re a leader, you lead the way.

Doc Emrick: “Usually you shake the hand that gets hit.” Unless the Pens start getting some secondary scoring, the Caps will win. IIRC Crosby, Guentzel, & Hornqvist have 20 goals & the rest of the team has 15. “Agnostic, gun owning, conservative, college educated hillbilly” | |||

What is going on with Kessel? He's hardly moving, can't control the puck, and doesn't look anything like himself. Has he been drinking post-season or playing injured? "You have the right not to be killed..." The Clash, "Know Your Rights" | |||

Josh Yohe of the Athletic speculated that he's been fighting a hand injury as well as a shoulder injury. “Agnostic, gun owning, conservative, college educated hillbilly” | |||

I think playing drunk would be funny but likely an injury. Still playing adult league there seems to always be, that team in every league that shows up somewhat drunk for every game. _____________________________________ Because in the end, you won’t remember the time you spent working in the office or mowing your lawn.

If that's the case he needs to be benched. He isn't doing us any good playing. "You have the right not to be killed..." The Clash, "Know Your Rights" | |||

TJ Oshie with no class. Unwritten rule that when fighting and your opponent hits the ice you stop swinging. Not Oshie, he keeps swinging away. Not to mention he left his feet when he tried to check Letang. Sometimes, you gotta roll the hard six | |||

Good game. Best of three at this point. I hope we win two straight. Game 7 at home vs the pens never works out for us. Jesse Sic Semper Tyrannis | |||

Marchand should be suspended for the rest of his career. He's a disgusting little piece of shit. Guys like Marchand, Hornqvist, Wilson, etc., if the NHL was really serious about getting the head shots and other goonery out of the game then they'd all be serving long suspensions. | |||

Meh...Marchand isn't a goon in the pure sense of hockey. He is more like a little gnat; you LOVE it when he's on your team though, but yes...sometimes his antics get old and I wish he'd put that energy into scoring 10 more goals per season. PD...I'm 40/60 on whether the B's are done. Rick Nash must step up...that's why Bruce brought him to the team. There are so many things that frustrate the crap outta me about this team. Overall, I will say this...there's NO WAY the 1 and 2 seeds should be meeting in the second round. Same thing is going on in the West.

Rest of his career? Marchand gets his share of suspensions and penalties. This is the NHL. He’s pretty tame compared to old-school hockey. Remember when teams had their enforcers? | |||

Sorry but licking other players is disgusting and if this was old school hockey he'd probably still be lying on the ice after the first time it happened. The first time it happened the refs had a "talk" with him, I'm sure he said he'd never do it again...and then right in the following game he does it again. He's a dirty player, pure and simple. I would never want that dirt bag on my team. | |||
