Around the League 36-But Who's Counting...

[sabremike]

The whole Sabres team should sit a few games for wearing those terrible uniforms.

Honestly our reverse retro should've been the old home (white) version of the goatshead. Would've sold way better as well. To be fair if we used blue pants with them they would look a lot better.

Seriously, that’s some RHI looking garbage.

I’ve really not enjoyed how often everyone is rolling out reverse retros. They’re really working hard to make it difficult to tell what teams you’re looking at.

That’s the classic cross checking up because you’re short and whoopsie I got your face. Very bad as you said but I’d be shocked it is was intentional. Still merits a couple games off.

+1

Got pissed and went high and you have to be held responsible even if it wasn’t your intention to get the face. It’s hardly his style tho.

 

[AD Skinner]

Its the white pants. They never work

 

[Boom Boom Apathy]

Agree, especially when you are drinking red wine. Won't make that mistake again.

And after Labor Day no less...

3 games for Skinner, which is completely consistent with other rulings coming from cross checking the face....

Nah, I'm just kidding. It's the NHL Wheel of Justice again

 

[Negan4Coach]

I kinda understand Skins losing his cool though, Guentzel just hacked at their goalie, then gave him a stick to the jewels (both of which are patented Shitts moves)

Yeah I mean what am I, a bad guy or something for loving what Skinner did to that bastard?

What were the other rulings? (serious question as I don't recall what they were and who did it).

 

[Tryamw]

2 IIRC seems the most common.. Maybe because the match was 30sec + OT??

Matthews on Dahlin (2 games) and Malkin on Borowiecki (4 games) are the ones that I can remember.

Which is ironic, because Matthews was probably the most violent of the 3, while Malkin's was the least

It’s interesting though because it sure looked like Malkin intended to cross check him in the mouth. The other two could at least make the argument they went higher tha. They intended or got some shoulder pad first. Malik crossed check a guy in the mouth who didn’t even have a stick anymore (because Malkin slashed it out of his hands first. The idea that what Malkin did was worse than Matthews is silly though.

Or, if you like to stir shit up for funsies.

North American on European - 2 games
North American on North American - 3 games
Russian on North American - 4 games.

So North American on Russian - Russian gets 1 game?

Lol

Fined for diving.

 

[DaveG]

legit amazed that anyone ever broke that insane shift that Mike Keenan did to punish Kovalev back in the day.

Could be 1 automatic game for the match penalty and then 2 for the “normal” discipline.

Skinner isn't all that short and Guentzel isn't that tall. Guentzel is only an inch taller than Skinner. That was very much an 'accidentally on purpose' move by Skinner- he absolutely intended to do that and tried make it look accidental. And yeah, that's very much worth a game or three.

 

[mikeyfan]

Who’s the biggest Trash Talker on the Canes? In the league?

I would say Martinook for the Canes, not sure for the league

i would say Marchand for the league

I kinda liked ‘em, honestly.

Lol

We’re having a tough year!

 

[AhosDatsyukian]

Lol

what the f***, what a lack of SA

Also, 1/3rd of the way through the season and McDavid is on pace for 73 goals and 158 points.

When its a brawl of that many people, 1 cop can’t do anything. I ain’t mad at him. Tasers is where it is at.

Yeah, i didn’t post it because of the cop comment in tweet, just the brawl itself
