Brad "The Perfect Angel" Marchand has a hearing for his nutshot last night. New theory: Unless Marchand cheapshots opposing players on a regular basis his nose will grow so large he'll be unable see directly in front of him.

Lindy Ruff may not have been very good in Dallas but this is 100% Jim Nill firing the coach to save his own job. What the gently caress is any coach in the NHL supposed to do with that defense and goaltending?

JoelJoel posted:Don't you have some sort of government agency in place to prevent such monopolistic practices? I assume they don't routinely put execs from BCE and Roger's on their board. That would be too crazy. The Canadian government mandates that the major telecommunications companies maintain full wired service for TV, internet and phone anywhere in Canada, including the middle of bugfuck nowhere in the northern parts with very few people. This costs the telcos a ton of money and because of that the CRTC tends to be hands off regarding regulation unless it's absolutely egregious, and even then the response tends to be pretty uneven.

Henderson had to retire because of that hit, so his claim for lost wages is pretty legit given how much officials make. Also, "getting decked by a player" is likely well beyond reasonable danger associated with his job. Also gently caress the Flames and gently caress Wideman.

This is probably a 6-7 game series with more 1 goal games if Pittsburgh got punished for their mistakes and CBJ had .900 goaltending. I am trying, and failing, to figure out exactly what the gently caress point you're trying to make here. Columbus played like poo poo and Bobrovsky forgot how to goalie. It's mind-bogglingly stupid to say they "deserved better" because based on how they played, they got the exact result they deserved. grack fucked around with this message at 20:49 on Apr 21, 2017 |

Captain Internet posted:vvvvv it's all good my man, not sure how to explain a team playing really really well not being rewarded for it and a team getting out played and not getting punished for it in a way you could understand, so you just enjoy that torts hate boner.vvvvvv Columbus didn't play "really, really well". They played like absolute steaming poo poo through the first three games and only marginally better in games four and five. They took a ton of undisciplined penalties and Bobrovsky was awful. It wasn't an issue of puck luck, it was an issue of being outplayed by their opponent. I'm starting to wonder if you actually watched any of the games at this point because your opinion is literally the exact opposite of everyone else on the forums.
