Ook. Everyone looks ready for the bus so far.

Biggest pet peeve about modern hockey. Every big hit, even if it’s clean, results in a guy getting jumped. It’s a contact sport, hitting is legal.

Everyone says that until one of their guys gets hit and they start screaming why a guy like Ras is just standing there not responding

 

[norrisnick]

Nice controller disconnect on the PP, Kane

 

[Lazlo Hollyfeld]

honest opinion if shoe was on other foot i think it should b no goal. fleury couldnt position bc player was in blue pant.

Why though? DeBrincat did go into the crease on his own which is dicey, but there wasn't any contact on a bang bang play. I'd have a hard time believing he prevented Fleury from establishing position.

(and I say this as someone who thought Larkins goal probably shouldn't have counted)

 

[Steve Yzerlland]

Raymond has the wrist shot that people were saying Zadina had as a prospect.

Imagine if he did we would probably be cup contenders if he was who we hoped. Crazy bust

not sure on rule book but Imo goalie should have crease space to be able to position to make saves.

if i was a goalie i would have been right where dbc was was standing. fleury could have sold it better by making contact with dbc.

 

[KJoe88]

Worst power play attempt I’ve seen wth

I default to the goalie's body language. MAF was mad he got beat, not that he got bumped. Wild coaches should have conferred with Fleury rather than rolling the die.

Nah. Hockey is a tough sport. Take a number and get the guy back. All this crap after hard hits discourages hitting more than anything the DoPS does.

And a hard hit separates a guy from the puck and gives you an advantage. The scrums take away that advantage. Anyone fighting the guy who threw the check should always get 2, 5 and 10.

That's his ice to take if he needs it. If he's not trying to take that ice, we'll all assume he didn't need it.

Ras with another grade A chance and he fires it over the net.

 

[dalem177]

So if Copp has to go on desk duty for a bit, can Shine come back up?

 

[Christien]

Rasmussen is so trash

 

[Lazlo Hollyfeld]

That's a weak ass makeup call.

 

[Chelis Chili]

or the next on 7: Quinn Hughes

 

[GMR]

Should have been a diving call on Fleury to boot.

 

[norrisnick]

They've been trying to game manage this game like f***ing crazy...

Agreed I think if Fleury sold it by making contact then they'd have a strong case (like he just did with the flop on the Ras penalty).

Price used to be the master of that. He'd slide across the crease even away from where the shot is coming, but he'd make contact with a player in the blue and they'd call goaltender interference. It was maddening.

 

[Ulysses31]

fleury learned his lesson from last goal

 

[KJoe88]

lol what joke

 

[Lazlo Hollyfeld]

If I took a drink every time Ras has had a great scoring chance this game I'd currently be following the game on my phone in the emergency room.

 

[SoupGuru]

He hit the net!

 

[Lazlo Hollyfeld]

He hit the net!

Ras's favorite snipes are high and wide, and bullseye to the logo.
