Not that it makes it any better, but BizNasty just said on Twitter he rewatched it and the primary contact point was on the shoulder, not neck.

Still ugly.

How about the hit to the head afterward because the cross check just wasn't enough?

What a joke

Yeah I watched and it was, though IMO: not a hockey play + stick penalty + no meaningful in-game consequence should = suspension but nothing or a fine would probably be more consistent with how the NHL does things in the playoffs.

But when he tripped the guy who shoved him down really hard by pulling his skate out from under him while he was on the ice, an angel got its wings.

CBJ call up Sonny Milano, which feels like a move in anticipation of a suspension which DoPS apparently isn't going to hand out.

calvert needs to be suspended at least 2 games, not for justice because I know the NHL doesn't care about that, but to trigger the mechanism inside Torts that brings out the demon and make this series a sports entertainment trainwreck

weird how mentioning brandon dubinsky being third man in on the ensuing scrum slips your mind though

thankfully justice was served when he was penalized and the penguins scored on the ensuing power play

Target: Torts gets $100,000 in fines from the league (and perhaps the FCC) by the end of the series.

Went to the Bell Centre last night, it was crazy! The way the whole place blew up when they tied it and again when they won in OT was unreal. Definitely have to go again.

And they gave me chocolate milk on the way out the door, is that an OT thing?


Saw a couple of these.

I was just thinking about how the Pens used to goon it up when they were losing and how glad I am they don't do it anymore. Sullivan is just great.
