Around the NHL: Part XXXIII

[Boris Zubov]

I dont agree with that call.

Its based entirely on there being an injury on the play.

Its unfortunate but Tinordi brought that upon himself.

That's boarding regardless of the injury. I may have overstated the suspension implications before seeing the replay, but that's clearly an illegal hit.

The referees appear to disagree with you. There was no call until they reviewed it after seeing the injury.

 

[Boris Zubov]

The referees appear to disagree with you.

They called it 5 & a game for Boarding, so I'm unclear of what you mean.

 

[Black Aces]

The called it 5 & a game for Boarding, so I'm unclear of what you mean.

They didnt call the penalty until after he was injured and it required a review.

 

[ArPanet]

So now penalties can be called by review even if it’s not called during play?

 

[Boris Zubov]

They didnt call the penalty until after he was injured and it required a review.

They clearly said on the broadcast that the trailing referee made the call immediately & that was why they could review the play to confirm the call. You're arguing semantics at this point.

I am not arguing semantics. I am arguing that Tinordi put himself in a bad position.

I agree he turned into it, but the rules for boarding do not require a hit from behind. That was a clear boarding call as it gets, IMO. You're obviously free to disagree.

Go kick rocks, Caps

Useless

 

[DialUp]

This is absurd. It’s like the stars have all aligned to keep NYR out of the postseason

There is a non-zero chance the Rangers win out the full 12 games and still be a good ways out of the last spot. This year is bullshit, it's OK to just write it off completely.

I dont think it was a major.


In your opinion, if he wasn't injured would it have been called a 5 min major or would it have been 2 mins?

 

[PuckLuck3043]

I was being sarcastic cause of the Rangers usually making some unknown into the next Hasek.
But the lack of physicality on this Rangers team is concerning. This team would get beat up physically. How did Rangers management think that this is not an issue when they make the playoffs.

You always say this but I have not seen any games this year that I can recall that they lost because of not being physical enough. Not one. Stupid penalties? - yes, bad goaltending? - yes, too much passing and not enough shooting? - yes. Physically intimdated? NO.

Bettman has turned this into a hockey entertainment league so yes.

 

[Black Aces]

These last 3 Boston games have pissed me off so bad

 

[DialUp]

Just wait for their next 13, you are going to be furious

Yes. I thought it was a dangerous play from the get go. And I despise both of these teams, so I'm not favoring either side.

I also thought Wilson deserved 2 mins for elbowing Kurally in the head earlier in the period, despite the fact he was already falling down, so...

 

[Rangerfans]

Bruins are taking care of business. We can only hope to mimic their recent success.

 

[PuckLuck3043]

Boston is going to win the east.

 

[Black Aces]

Me too. He was going down but Wilson elbowed him.

 

[PuckLuck3043]

Me too. He was going down but Wilson elbowed him.

Wilson's a POS.

 

[Matt Rentfree]

So now penalties can be called by review even if it’s not called during play?

This happened to us earlier in the season. One of Gauthier's high sticking penalties in the game where he took 2 I think?

 

[aufheben]

Boston is going to win the east.

I’m not really impressed by them.

 

[PuckLuck3043]

I’m not really impressed by them.

You will be when the win the east.

 

[Black Aces]

Was Kuznetsov doing the condor celebration after that loss?

 

[aufheben]

You will be when the win the east.

My rationale is that they’re not the only team in the conference that plays good defense, and the other teams that play defense can score more than Boston can. Also I think Krug was irreplaceable for them.

Their goal differential is like +15. Ours is double that lol. Idk man...
