Took Minn Foligno 2:14 to target someone and take a 5 minute major

Little man says his team is not dirty, his player begs to differ by their actions

As the Brits say, bloody hell!

Stars score on the Foligno major. This guy just sucks, embarassing behavior after his antics cost his team game 4. Hopefully the parade to the PB continues for the Wild.

And it does…. 2 PP goals by Dallas so far

Good. f*** the Wild.

Good. f*** the Wild.

Foligno, Hartman and Reaves all dirty trashy head hunters. Evason as coach doesn’t help matters either.

Evason is the archetypical dinosaur.

Evason is the archetypical dinosaur.

I think he is legitimately insane.

 

[bustamente]

Even Jones and Olczyk said on the broadcast that the Wild need to stop with the shenanigans and play hockey

 

[hn777]

Unbelievable, this is getting so goofy now. Obviously I'm a homer but how does Makar only get 1 game and Scheifele 4 ? Just a joke.

Apparently it's the going rate this year for interference and injuring another player. Just like Hartman on Ehlers.

 

[RabidOne]

There are some on the main boards defending it as finishing his check. How do you even engage in a discussion with someone like that?

So if you hit a guy 5 minutes or half an hour after the puck is off his stick is that finishing your check?

Kolosars hit on lowry was pretty late and bad and no one talked about it that way

Evason wishes he could be a head hunter too... poor widdle guy

1.2 B committed for NEW Calgary arena and events centre, dread the day the Jets need a new arena!

Could we afford a new arena ?

Oh man!!! Are the leafs and oilers on a collision course for the Stanley Cup final?

God spare us the agony if that ever materialized. Who would one cheer for? Honestly as much as I despise Kane and wish him nothing but failure, I still cheer for Edmonton to win. Just don’t think I could stand tuning in for any of it.

Boston needs to get Bergeron and Krejci healthy and back into their lineup to ensure this doesn’t happen.

Leafs / Oilers final would be the best thing ever. Why? Because nobody south of the border would even watch it and it would drive Bettman insane. Acctually, Winnipeg / Toronto would be even better.

That’s one aspect, but for every non leaf’s and non oilers fans north of the border, it would be beyond insufferable especially if it was Toronto that won.

If Chipman is developing Portage Place too, he isn't planning on a new arena for many decades.

 

[Jets 31]

Could we afford a new arena ?

Thompson could, with just his sock money.

Could we afford a new arena ?

The question is , do we really need one? Yet?

As someone who spent a lot of time in the old Polo Park Winnipeg Arena, every time I step into the newer downtown barn, I honestly don't have too many issues. And yes I have had issues ( goddam Loge ), and could it have been better? Sure, but it was never built with the intention of hosting an NHL team. And improvements have been made and can continue to be made for a fraction of the cost of a new one. IMO we are probably 20 years away from even thinking about replacing it.

As far a Calgary's new barn... yes they needed a new arena given they had the second oldest in the NHL, but did they need one that costs $800 million ( $1.22 billion is the total deal )? Not a chance. They could have priced out a more than adequate arena for 2/3rds that ( Rogers Place cost $613.5 million ), except they couldn't because they had to do one better than Edmonton. This is nothing more than an arena pissing contest between Calgary and Edmonton. One that Winnipeg doesn't need to get caught up in.

is that 613M in 2016 dollars, or 2023? im assuming that's not the total deal as well.

Ya know time creeps by quickly. 50 years is a long time for a building like this. How old is it now ? 20 25 ?

That guy is an absolute POS, fits right in on that team.
