[tycoonheart]

Damnnnn never seen Barry like that

 

[Capsman]

I like this Jeanot kid!

 

[RedRocking]

Damn, Malkin going nuts on Borowiecki at the horn. Swung his stick, then clipped him up high, lots of blood, maybe missing teeth.

TNT crew calling immediately for suspension. This could matter in a potential chase for 3rd.

 

[g00n]

Malkin is a criminal.

 

[traparatus]

Yeah, he'll sit for a few here. Maybe more than a few.

 

[max21]

 

[Drakon]

Really gross.

 

[marcel snapshot]

He’s such a f***ing coward weasel. Never seems to straight up go with someone, but always eager to do dirty, scummy crap like that

 

[tycoonheart]

Pitt won.

Him, Letang, and Crosby are all the same. They’re so damn good but they have the same emotional response when something happens on the ice that my four year old has when I tell him no dessert if he doesn’t eat his dinner. They’re the worst with the cross checks and slashes and sucker punches.

Sounds great, they must be winning a lot of games

He is protected, there are those who can’t do wrong and those who can’t do right. Different rules for different folks

Honestly, I expected Malkin to do this yesterday.

 

[IafrateOvie34]

Big boy can't throw em like Ovy, has to use his stick to play tough guy.

 

[VaCaps Fan]

There is a reason Ovie f***ed him up.

 

[Empty Goal Net]

and the refs gave him ... a double minor? Not a major and a game for deliberate intent to injure?

The NHL must figure out how games can be referreed in the third decade of the 21st century. The unevenness is a detriment to the game.

 

[pman25]

Dang rough weekend for Pittsburgh fans, back to back games where you have defend some dirty plays your team did! No good!

I guess he needed to throw in a slew foot to complete Malkin Bingo?

It was after the horn, they should have started with a major, and then took the break to review and decide if they wanted to downgrade it.

He’s a recidivist, so hopefully DoPS gives him 5 games. They gave Mathews 2 (right?) for far less.

 

[g00n]

Malkin is what fans around the league imagine Tom Wilson to be.

 

[crab]

If Malkin doesn’t get 3+ games for that the league is a complete joke. He really should be getting 5+ games but the league has always gone easy on him.

Backstrom got a one game suspension for cross checking in the playoffs on a lesser play with absolutely zero history.

 

[hb13xchamps]

Malkin has a hearing with DoPs

 

[AlexModvechkin8]

Malkin has a hearing with DoPs

I'm going with 3, maybe 4 games. He either gets 2-3 for the incident and another 1 for being a repeat defender. Honestly anything between 2-5 games wouldn't surprise me.
