I remember Shane Doan yapping like an idiot in the handshake line after Dustin "the predator" Brown launched a missile that blew out Rozsival's knee and ended his career.

I thought it was Brown who initiated the dialogue with Doan, and Doan said he didn't wanna hear about it. He later whined to the media, but still he has guts 10 times more than a buffoon like Lucic. If anyone was acting like an idiot in that handshake line, it was Hanzal.
 
I hope he gets a long suspension from the league. Next time, when you call your shot, make sure it's something like "I guarantee that we'll win the next game" and not "I'm going kill you".

True, and considering he is an athlete in Boston he just might make good on the threat.
 
From the photoshop thread...

the post game handshakes after big games or series are always done. from midgets to the NHL, players shake hands. it is tradition.

the game is bigger than any one player, you honor the game, as well as, your opponent by exchanging handshakes.

win or lose, you graciously shake hands and move on without rubbing the outcome in one another's face.

People are making too big of a deal about it. Players are frustrated and pissed off, I think it is crazy it does not happen more often.
 
When asked about what he said to Weise, Lucic explained that the real unsportsmanlike thing to do was talk about it.

“That’s said on the ice so it’ll stay on the ice, so if he wants to be a baby about it, he can make it public,” Lucic said.

So happy the Bruins will be playing golf next week.
 
I thought Lucic was mischaracterized in the past, boy did his stupidity prove me wrong. He's such a dumb cement head. If you have a problem with the player, do something about it during the game. Not when it's over and done and you're shaking hands. Dumb *****.

Like score a goal. But nah, he's content with flapping his big mouth.

On a somewhat related note - Boston media is the worst in the country.
 
I haven't paid any attention to their media. What are they saying? I'm going to guess they're just making excuse and calling Lucic an ultra competitor to defend his actions.

That too. But I was browsing Twitter last night and one of their media guys posted (can't find it now which is frustrating) something along the lines of the Habs played dirty by getting Lucic off his game. LMAO how many times have coaches preached about getting someone off their game?

I guess that's unacceptable when it happens against the Bruins but totally acceptable when they do it to their opponents. I hate it when media members act like uneducated, biased fans.
 
I hate to be the guy but the east coast in general is like this. Lots of narcissism and meatheaded-ness. New flash: most people on the west coast don't give a **** about Boston, NY or Philly even though they think they are the center of the universe.

Yeah, but over the last 10 years no one has had more success than Boston. Their ego is huge. Trust me I have a ton of family on the East Coast and everything is Boston this and Boston that.
 
Twitter conversation with the Sharks twitter account:

@SanJoseSharks: QUIZ: For a chance to win a @Logancouture bobblehead, what is the max number of times per day you're allowed to vote #NHL15Couture?

@RonM11: @SanJoseSharks @NHL @Logancouture 4.
