Around the league part 2

It’s pretty cringey going on the Perry thread that people can get infractions for rumors. It’s a hockey message board not a trusted publication..

Hf takes itself way too seriously for being a subreddit. Can you even have issues with libel on a forum? Especially when you’re an anonymous user.

Of course Edmonton/Vegas was a 3-point game. Lame.

Any truth to the rumor that the Blackhawks are going to draft Connor Perry in 2041?

Great discussion on goalies and NHL trends.

Ok then, Gabe.

He’s so whiny. Not Lizzo’s fault he’s made out of glass.

 

[Axl Rhoadz]

He's not wrong.

 

[Little Psycho]

He's not wrong.

He’s taking it personal and still resents the kings for sending him to the North Pole. It’s interesting that this is coming up all now. Now if it was Fiala who did that I would understand since he does stupid shit on a daily basis but it’s Lizzotte.

 

[kingsholygrail]

Any contact is a potential season ender for Vilardi.

I think its one thing if you're commenting on a player you've never played with before, someone like Tkachuk for example. But to do it in the media against your former teammate and the player in question is Blake Lizotte? I think that's a bit uncalled for to air this out in the media like that.

 

[AbsentMojo]

He's right about it being a stupid play. Lizo has no history of cheap hits that i know of.. so that part of his statement is suspect. Does anyone remember Lizo doing anything cheap before?

 

[Johnny Utah]

Boy this Vilardi has a lot to say once he got traded.

 

[BigKing]

If he doesn't do something about it on the ice, then he's a whiny bitch. Might be regardless.

No, he just plays balls to the wall, and a lot of people do not like that when you are playing against it.

Vilardi just needs to shut the f*** up and play hockey, worry about playing 82 games before you worry about anything else....

As far as the play itself, it wasn't stupid, it was hustle, it happens, it's hockey, get over it.

Yeah it’s pretty weird to that they will police the speculation of random users as if its libelous.

This site takes itself way too seriously. Especially the global moderators who act as if this is the CIA. Even the fact that you can’t even talk about mods is super gestappo to me.

Watch Lizotte get his stick in there and leverage his legs out - its basically a slewfoot type of check.. thats stupid/unnecessary to me. But whatever I think Vilardi should shutup about it.. he took into the personal when he said he's seen him do a lot of that before.

He goes to lift the stick of Vilardi, as Vilardi turns to protect it, he didn't leverage the f*** out of anything, again it was a HUSTLE play, it wasn't a slewfoot, f*** it wasn't even a check......well....attempted stick check, he didn't get his stick in between the legs, he lunged to lift the stick and get the puck, something he does dozens upon dozens times a game etc...

 

[Ziggy Stardust]

I remember when Todd once spoke out about a certain player with negative body language was bringing that negative energy to the rink, and how that hurt the team. It was pretty clear to me that the player whom Todd was talking about was Gabe Vilardi.

Funny enough, Pierre-Luc Dubois has had that same vibe in the past, but at least he’s exhibited some clutch performances in the playoffs and has produced 25+ goals and 60+ points consistently.

He goes in initally to lift his stick then sees the puck is gone and tries finish his check with a leveraged slewfoot type of check.. Sorry thats dirty

No idea what you are seeing there, seems like you have an unconscious bias, he finishes his check with a leveraged slewfoot type of check? What does that even mean honestly, he's going to lift his stick, VILARDI TURNS to protect the stick/puck, and gets taken down because of that turn, so what do you want Lizotte to do, not try and get the puck? What are his options when Vilardi turns?

Vilardi seems like a good guy to get out of a locker room.
