this is just the way Ovechkin plays the game...hits from behind into boards...it's just how he plays the game so we have to let him do it.

thanks Keith Jones.

****ing dumb.

I thought the exact same thing when Jones said it.

Brutal, heaven forbid he criticize a star like OV. :shakehead

Always like Keith Jones. Not anymore. Ovi apologist. Ovi had his hand on Carlos head l...accident or not...and guided his face to the glass. Pathetic.

Surely with this many scrubs on the team one of them could respond. I thought this team is all about grit and character.

I just hate their style of play. They just don't care anymore, the fire is gone and has been for a while. If people like watching the "going through the motions" type of hockey, whatever.

It's just tough for me to watch a team that would be intimidated by pee-wees.

The fact that no one so much as went in and grabbed Ovechkin tells you all you need to know about the make up of this team. "Hey, go ahead... smash someone from behind, we won't do anything about it"

It's like getting sucker-punched by one guy at a bar while none of your 18 buddies step in. ****ing painful to watch when you have Chara, Miller, Backes, Beleskey, McQuaid and they don't respond

JFK looked better as the game moved fwd

nothing stands out though... the skating, faceoffs, stickhandling

like vanilla on the ice

Marchand first 20 games 0 goals 1 assist and dispised on HF

Wait he's dispised now :laugh:

I wish Acciari was playing, he's not afraid to hit and he's great at it.

Surprised Quaider hasn't announced his presence yet.

The team follows their captain and Chara has a brutal giveaway every shift. He's no longer the policeman and captain, the poor b@stard is just trying to hang on. And the team pays for it by getting drilled every game and the goalies getting run in their crease with no fear of retaliation. No fire, no desire.

Feel the same, are brand of hockey is fading away. Don't believe I'll be watching in a few more years. Shame the way the league has ruined this sport for their gain.

Keith Jones "I thought the hit was fine"

Really? This is one of the multitude of reasons why I don`t typically watch their intermission show.

I guess having a guy who`s numbers are literally staring at the incoming players then deciding to not only have your stick hooking his arm but then ramming his head into the boards is fine

Brutal

That play looked ugly the moment it happened and unless Carlo returns it means potentially big trouble on top of an already massive concern with Krug`s absence

JFK looked like a kid for sure, tentative and hesitant but watched his positioning defensively and he seemed ok, made 2 very nice decisions in the offensive zone that won`t get much air time as they were simply taking away passing lanes and forcing the D back both times

f*** I`m PO about that Carlo play

The minute they respond the league is all over them itching to suspend whoever.

One of them jumps OV and starts caving in his face, they are pretty much guaranteed a hearing.

Don't be pissed at Ovi for making that hit, be pissed at the Bruins for not responding.

If one of them went straight at Ovi I bet he would have been called for something and it would have been matching. Happens all the time around the NHL after a hit like that. Just standing idly by is full on ******** to do after someone does that to one of your top pairing d-men.
