Whoever made these Hyundai commercials should be punished physically

Hagel scores! I still think Tampa is better than Toronto. They may be inconsistent but they got the size and grit to just overcome adversity.

Don't know, Tampa is not impressing me

Experience WAHHHHHHHHHHHH

None of the teams besides Boston are impressing me

There are many pros and cons to both options but a lot of parents don't want their kids fighting with everything that's now known now about concussions. They especially don't want them fighting men in their 16-17 year old rookie seasons when their kids aren't even close to fully grown.

While having your 16 year-old son fighting a 20/21 year-old isn't ideal, they need to look into CTEs and concussions as your child is going to get that getting smoked.

There are players getting into maybe 1 fight a year, but taking a hundred hits a season.

And honestly, there are ALOT of people that don't undersrand head trauma can and does come from hitting.

Why is there no “Drouin cam” and the announcers aren’t even saying anything

Like how they had the camera glued to Bedard when he was on the bench at the WJC. I'd straight up die laughing.

I don't think many logical people would argue that the lightning aren't better. The question is how much gas they have in the tank.

This happened in some alternate dimension somewhere...

David Savard showing pillowy soft defense

Am I tripping balls or did we skip the 2nd? I can't believe it's already the 3rd. Quick game considering the late start with the ceremony.

 

[GobigorGohome]

I hope when Xhekaj comes back,MSL tells him No fighting unless Absolutely necessary

Not a lot of whistles.

Or they tell the medical staff to keep players put that are hurt.

 

[Stive Morgan]

Not a lot of whistles.

Feels like the only whistles have been penalties

I wonder if the people pushing for fights actually played junior and fought? If they want toughness maybe they should demonstrate by joining leagues with no age limits that allow fighting so they can demonstrate how much tougher they are than these junior players who actually want to play hockey?

It won't be long before there is no fighting in all three CHL leagues. They've been trending in that direction by putting in limits to number of fights. Most CHL players will never have a career in hockey and as we mentioned there are massive differences in physical maturity when it comes to 16 year olds vs fully grown 20-21 year old men. Imagine a 16 year old fighting someone like Jackeye last year!

As far as whether these posters pushing for fights have ever been in a fight ice, I often assume most of them don't get out of the house much let alone ever been in a hockey fight.

 

[Habs]

Have they showed drouin on the bench ? Is he wearing a little hat with a propeller on the top ?

 

[GobigorGohome]

There talking about how great Hedman was stopping Hoffman
Talk about a Low bar

 

[Tuggy]

Let me guess...broken hand for Anderson??

 

[The Great Weal]

How did Hoffman not score that

 

[Habs13]

Or they tell the medical staff to keep players put that are hurt.

He just sent threats to Radko Gudas last night so I don't see that happening.

How did Hoffman not score that

...he's Hoffman.

 

[Walrus26]

That picture from the bench said many words indeed. Ouch.

Quite the hot take. People can’t have an opinion because they aren’t fist fighting ? Lol

As opposed to our own dimension...
