Yea that’s a bad dive haha


Much (maybe most) of what people here call dives is really just large men moving fast on tiny knives losing the balance. I’ve noticed some of the regular accused are guys who are particular agile/great edge work


But nah that’s a dive right there haha. They have to fine that

How has Stutzle avoided any fines? Guy is an Olympic level diver.

Typical Oiler

Exactly

 

[MetalheadPenguinsFan]

Oilers being pathetic as usual

When I think of embellishers, Skinner and Stutzle always come to mind.

I see it's finally caught up with one of them.

Yah yah, Subban this and that. Habs fans heard it all.

Nobody actually cares about diving, so don't pretend like you do.

Maybe Skinner needs to write a letter to dispute the fine like Rantanen did. That's why they won't dare to fine Rantanen anymore

 

[TooManyHumans]

How dare you try to fool our idiot officials!

I mean - fining for diving is great in my opinion - but I'm not going to lie, it feels a little bit wacky that this is what's getting a fine.

Literally he just falls and gets back up and keeps playing. Didn't even look like he was looking for a call?

I feel like there's more egregious dives with head snaps and litigious arguments with refs in almost every game.

But far from me to get offended on behalf of thousands of a multimillionaires dollars.

The guys rubbing their faces after their heads haven't even been touched.

Pettersson too.

Larkin had a worse dive on Dec 1st.

Would be nice to see consistency

In related news, the NHL has announced that Mason Marchment will have the last digit of his pinky finger removed for excessive diving...

These $2,000 fines will sure teach these millionaire athletes a lesson.

 

[aylib]

Was Stutzle pardoned preemptively?

 

[NailsHoglander]

These $2,000 fines will sure teach these millionaire athletes a lesson.

In McDavids case, it would be like getting fined $15 for someone earning $100k/yr

 

[BayStBullies]

I bet he fell off his seat when he got the news!

 

[Breakers]

What’s the deal with Skinner?

Like is this his final year of guaranteed contracts and he is probably looking at PTO’s next?

 

[Leafs87]

Probably a bunch more that led to embelishing teams player going on the PP so they can’t fine to not ruin the refs “integrity”

 

[10YearsHaveGotBehind]

When does Rantanen get his fine for the dive over the weekend?

I care......when it results in my team getting a penalty.
