Well that just makes me want ot know MORE what he said, haha.

"no, not that" but enough to get a 10 and send a guy who hasn't thrown a hit in his life straight to the mental ward

The guy is the fratboy bro who thinks he can get away with anything and not face the consequences . Once again he hides behind players and refs, then later in the penalty box , acting the tough guy. He's gonna get the crap beat out of him, and it will be earned.

"the 10 isn't for mouthing off, it's for crosschecking a downed opponent in the upper back for nothing" isn't exactly the character defense you think it is either

I think thats what set off Stecher..the cheap shot after Henrique's cheap shot to a defenseless player on the ice...

Stecher confirmed that Zegras said something inappropriate. And he got a misconduct.

If they deemed it was an intent to injure, it would have been 5 + Game.

I'm glad Zegras didn't go after Stecher's dad, but let's not go the other way of, just because it wasn't what an amateur lip-reader thought, doesn't mean it was just a cheap shot or hockey play.

Rewatching it - it does back up what you said - Stecher came in hot pulled off Zegras helmet - got pulled away by a Duck, looked fairly calm then circled around and got into verbal w Zegras - at which point Stecher went ape shit. Good stuff

Zegras is putting a massive target on his back. He shit talks a ton and is super soft. Dude is legit asking for a headshot.

Islanders got Horvat for Beauvillier, Raty and a conditional first

I think Raty is going to be good. I am not looking forward to playing against him as a division rival
I don't think the Islanders are in a good position to parlay a 1st round pick, but at least it's a quality two-way player like Horvat.

Pretty rough that the Canucks opted to side with Miller, who just seems to be causing problems.

I always liked Beauvillier. Never took off as a power forward (mostly due to size), but the dude always punches above his weight class.

Indeed


Do you know the conditions of the pick?

edit- weird , now I am seeing it described as a protected 1st

The Canucks owner is the clown in all of this (before even discussing the disgusting allegations made against him by his own family). I don't think Rutherford and Alvin ever had permission for a true rebuild even if their moves since have been pretty bland up until this trade. Miller was re-signed assuming they'd be playoff competitive. They could have put together an absolute war chest of picks and prospects if they'd supplemented this Horvat deal by trading Kuzmenko and Miller rather than re-signing them.

anyone else think the top 13 protection on the first rounder going to New York seems greedy by Lou? Love it


especially once Horvat re-signs for $2m more/year
It shows the value attached to top picks this year. If Horvat can't get you in the top 12, not much will.

Yeah I agree I like Bo Horvat. Would much rather keep him than Miller.
