  • We sincerely apologize for the extended downtime. Our hosting provider, XenForo Cloud, encountered a major issue with their backup system, which unfortunately resulted in the loss of some critical data from the past year.

    What This Means for You:

    • If you created an account after March 2024, it no longer exists. You will need to sign up again to access the forum.
    • If you registered before March 2024 but changed your email, username, or password in the past year, those changes were lost. You’ll need to update your account details manually once you're logged in.
    • Threads and posts created within the last year have been restored.
    • Our 2025 light and dark themes were lost, so we are rebuilding them. Light theme is currently available, but work in progress

    Our team is working with Xenforo Cloud to recover data using backups, sitemaps, and other available resources. We know this is frustrating, and we deeply regret the impact on our community. We are taking steps with Xenforo Cloud to ensure this never happens again. This is work in progress. Thank you for your patience and support as we work through this.

    In the meantime, feel free to join our Discord Server
There goes another guy on my team in my keeper league. Should be a 20 game suspension. Bad hit, interference and you should never be able to hit a guy who is already in a battle with another player.

One view looks like bigtime head contact.

I can see interference on the hit definitely. As for head contact, I'll just admit I'm not really sure.

Wasn't interference. Kulich was low. The hit was fine, but I do agree with the hitting a player already engaged, but it's within the rules. The Scott Steven's Special. The other part of the Special was the puck being gone for 25 minutes and then you throw a hit
 
By Howden of all people.
A useless cheap shots a good player. How is that not at the very least interference. The officials are complete morons.

IMO throwing a hit like that on a player who doesn't have the puck should be an ejection.

I thought the Howden hit was NOT dirty...albeit, Kulich was low to the ice, but honestly, what do you expect Howden to do, "well sir, your head is way down, and even though you have the puck, I will have to let you by to make a play".

Howden just went body on body. Kulich should NOT have been that low.

That all said, I don't believe players should have to fight after a clean hit, BUT, if you are the Sabres, you definitely need to take names and numbers, and return the favor by being physical right back.

If Krebs (Krebs, FFS!) is the only one who took issue with a teammate being killed, and not some other Sabre who should be doing that sort of work, then Buffalo really does have a problem.
