GDT: ECQF GAME 4 : WARNING: EXPLODING DEFENSEMEN (WSH vs NYR G4, 8pm)

[MikeyMike01]

No idea what the Rangers D was doing there.

Re-enacting this play:

 

[Bounces R Way]

Lindgren got walked badly

 

[Lazlo Hollyfeld]

Well, all of the ex-players, broadcasters, and reporters disagree with you. They are calling it a knee on knee even though tripping was the call.

It's great that you polled all of them. Good on ya with the appeal to authority.

By the NHL rulebook it's a trip.

4 dudes just watch Lafreniere score.

That wasn't Lafreniere

 

[AnInjuredJasonZucker]

Awesome goal by Lapierre.

 

[Lazlo Hollyfeld]

That wasn't Lafreniere

It would've been a helluva an own goal if it was though.

[Kupo]

Dude this post was so funny.

Your dorks just got scored on FYI.

Yes, they did some great watching. Igor should curse them (internally and silently)

Nobody is talking about the penalty call or arguing that it wasn't a trip. But it was clearly knee on knee, even if it wasn't intentional kneeing.

Ok I don't even know what we're talking about anymore. Yes his knee obviously made contact with Fox. But that doesn't automatically make it a kneeing penalty.

To be clear I'm not a fan of either team and really don't care that much about this one play. It didn't seem intentional, Fox appears to be ok, and the correct penalty was called.

Who here is arguing that it is a kneeling penalty? You know both things can be true, right?

It was knee on knee, but not a kneeing penalty.

I thought that's what people were arguing?

but I've also spent the day on the couch hopped up on cough medicine because I have a cold. So I might just be watching the screensaver on my tv and typing out messages on my dog's head thinking I'm posting on hfboards.

 

[Misery74]

Watching Lapierre since the halfway through point of the season.

A huge bright spot for Washington.

Because I hate myself, I just went through the conversation, and I think you are all saying the same thing. There was a misunderstanding at some point where it looks like LH thought someone saying "kneeing" meant it should be a kneeing penalty, which doesn't appear to be the case.

Hug it out.

You are doing the lord's work. Thank you.

I apologize for my part in any of the confusion.

Yeah, looks like most of the posts were just knee jerk reactions.

 

[OurlordAndSaviorKuch]

Rangers not playing the greatest now.

 

[Lazlo Hollyfeld]

Not sure who that drop pass by Oshie was for

 

[Pez68]

Rangers not playing the greatest now.

Pretty typical game 4, when one team is up 3-0.

 

[trilobyte]

TBH this series is not the most scintillating hockey

 

[Despote]

Panarin is genuinely one of the worst and most useless players in the league in 5vs5 playoff hockey

Objectively true, there’s only around 640 skaters in the league at any given time. He’s definitely one of the 640 worst.

It can be fun to watch playoff hockey when I don't really care who wins because I'm not an anxious wreck, but yeah.. this hasn't been super exciting.

Need another good 3rd period, something the Rangers have done well this season.
