There’s people on this board complaining about how physical other teams are. That’s montreal canadien fanbase material
You and I definitely have different definitions of "physical hockey"There’s people on this board complaining about how physical other teams are. That’s montreal canadien fanbase material
let me guess you think the blues were dirty ?You and I definitely have different definitions of "physical hockey"
Yeah some Bruins fans in 2019 turned into the Canucks fans after 2011 about rough playoff hockey. The Blues had two guys suspended a game even and still won the series. Larry Robinson, who I know doesn’t know much about hockey said the game plan was to pound the smaller players on D. The constant ref whining reminds me of Habs fans howeverEach year we slowly become more and more like the Montreal canadiens fan base
Don't forget Thomas on Sedin. That was an unforgettable classic moment.Did you have an issue with Boychuk on Raymond or Marchand submarining one of the Sedin sisters?

This one is on me. I read it right after I saw the Wilson suspension. Made the wrong connection.Yeah some Bruins fans in 2019 turned into the Canucks fans after 2011 about rough playoff hockey.

Oh Wilson play was dirty for sure hahaThis one is on me. I read it right after I saw the Wilson suspension. Made the wrong connection.
I have a problem with wild swings of sticks into people's faces. The other stuff is hockey and I want more of it. Not less.
Sorry. That was my fault.
Bruins beat any of them.With NYI fading, looks like either Tampa,Detroit,Toronto,Washington or Philly will be our opponent round 1
No biggie. I agreeThis one is on me. I read it right after I saw the Wilson suspension. Made the wrong connection.

100%. Ridiculous that the league is going down this path, but also sadly predictable. I'll take a few dud calls any day over further slowing down and micro-analysing of the game, even in crucial moments. But all coaches want as much control over events as they can get, and team managers are in the business of winning at all costs, so the pressure to increase the scope of these sorts of reviews is always significant. The league buckles bit by bit and it's the fans and the quality of the product that suffers.
I thought Jones was their go to goalie……no?Wait, goalie injury for the leafs?
Looked in pain for sure though.
I think I heard them say he was coming in for relief but I had switched from tv to xbox so idk.I thought Jones was their go to goalie……no?
I’m the opposite….probably because I’m old now and don’t usually have anywhere to be…..but, I’ll gladly take the extra time it takes to get calls right and hopefully, eventually weed out the lousy officials.
Depends on the week you're asking.I thought Jones was their go to goalie……no?
Yeah I get that point of view. I just want the game to flow, more hockey less standing around looking at screens, or sometimes looking at other people looking at screens. I'll cop the occasional error for that. Besides, sometimes they do a video review and they still get it wrong, which is usually even more infuriating. Tech can just be one more crutch to lean on, it tends to make for lazy officiating, and as for weeding out the poor performers...yeah I'm not seeing it.
Honestly if we win the division I hope we avoid Washington. They've been on a heater recently. All underlying stats say they should suck but they don't
You mean the Reinhart play? Looked pretty accidental to me. Definitely unfortunate result though.Sneaky, but very dirty and intentional elbow by Bennett on Gustafson in OT of Rags and Panthers game,
