Cheap call on OV the guy was holding his stick.

 

[Edgar Carrow]

They being the person who's shooting the puck like that. The right call was giving Kunitz no penalty? So there is no penalty with slapping the puck in those situations?

So you're all for players just blasting the puck at whistles for no reason?
No.

Correct.

I don't think shooting the puck at an empty net during a delayed penalty is enough to warrant a penalty.

So there is no issue with slapping the puck in those situations?
That depends on how you define "issue".

I still don't understand why Detroit is in the Eastern Conference, it makes zero sense and the Conferences are unbalanced because of it. It should be 15-15 teams per-conference, not 16-14.

because detroit is in the eastern time zone and they didnt like most of their away games in the western conference starting at 9 and 10 pm local

What about spraying the goalie? At what point do harmless antics become worthy of an unsportsmanlike call?

 

[Fondue]

Anyone else laugh every time Kuznetsov takes a faceoff and does his little twerk before the puck is dropped?

You noticed too !

Good period so far. Let's go Caps !

 

[Jack Straw]

This is funny. Phillies and Mets fighting for the division

Purely hypothetical of course.

And that spraying the goalie has been getting called more frequently these past couple of years.

 

[Alexander the Gr8]

What's with Pacioretty ? Is it serious ?

 

[FlaPanthers11]

Hit his head on the boards. Possible concussion.

Maybe someone else can upload a clip?

Looked like Letang last week

One thing to make it worthy of a call is for an opposing player to be physically involved.

 

[satbank]

What is it with Wings and Too Many Men penalty. I feel like they have a lot of those.

 

[sharks9]

Fantastic pass from Subban to Gallagher to put the Habs up 2-1

 

[X8oD]

******* thats a clean hipcheck.

Cleaner then Wilsons on Zdlicky. They let him take a running start and deliver a shot that catches his head, but call the hip check on thigh?

 

[hyduK]

Beauty check by Zidlicky.

 

[Do Make Say Think]

GOoOoOoO Washington!

 

[Classicnamesup]

What a joke of a call. You used to be able to hip check in the NHL and fans love it but Gary is neutering it

 

[mad4comp]

Pretty dirty hit by Marek. Puck was well away from the player and he went low to the knees.

 

[X8oD]

Thats just a picture perfect hit.

Pretty dirty hit by Marek. Puck was well away from the player and he went low to the knees.

replay shows it a clean hit And it was immediately after he dumped the puck in.

 

[Lazlo Hollyfeld]

Garbage call.

Hits to the head are ok, good hip checks are not.

 

[Hockeyfan2390]

Since when is that a penalty?

 

[Classicnamesup]

Pretty dirty hit by Marek. Puck was well away from the player and he went low to the knees.

You had better go look at a diagram of a human body and make sure your knees are in the right spot

Puck had just left and it was hip to hip.
