[Fugazy]

Sooooo many penalties.

 

[Irishguy42]

It's preseason. Let them play ffs

 

[Vinny DeAngelo]

Wow theyre calling a penalty now if two guys get thrown out?

 

[Lindberg Cheese]

Each game is going to take 5 hours this year

 

[Mac n Gs]

Whoever made that a new rule should be fired and abolished from making an NHL rule ever again.

Go Bettman!

 

[yrrebbor]

Faceoff violation? WTF is that?

 

[AIexisLafreniereNYR]

LOL wtf is this

 

[NickyFotiu]

I hear ya.
I guess I have a little Torts in me when it comes to work ethic lol

LOL don't worry little Torts. I can see McD and JT look to be in good shape even if they take it easy this game

 

[SA16]

But preseason is the best time to try and crack down on a rule like this...the result doesn't matter and you let the players know right away what will and won't be tolerated and hopefully by the time the regular season starts they adjust.

 

[Doctyl]

Faceoff violation? WTF is that?

Using your hand to win a faceoff?

 

[Vinny DeAngelo]

Honestly though, its been a very long time since we had one of his caliber. Hes legitimately a top 3 PP specialist in the league.

Yandle?

Richards was considered a top notch ppqb when signed

 

[Machinehead]

I see the NHL is going for the "90 powerplays a game" strategy to increase offense.

**** flow and excitement, as long as games end 3-2 instead of 2-1.

 

[nyr2k2]

I think it's delay of game, and I also believe they implemented that a few years ago.

 

[Tawnos]

No, it's preseason... let the players adjust to the rule changes now rather than during the regular season.

 

[SA16]

That rule has been in the rule book forever they just never throw out the second guy

 

[Doctyl]

Yandle?

Richards was considered a top notch ppqb when signed

Shatts better than both.

 

[KOVALEV022473]

DeAngelo has looked fantastic so far!

 

[Ail]

Honestly, better they take all the penalties now than when it matters. Rather the refs set the tone now.

"I'm lost" - Sam Rosen

 

[Machinehead]

I'm finally seeing the game

 

[Loff]

Great game. Nice flow. Amazing refs.

 

[Ori]

yeah too many penalties.

 

[Leetch3]

Wow theyre calling a penalty now if two guys get thrown out?

pretty sure that was a new rule last year but like always they only call things in the preseason and then stop calling it so they can claim the players have adjusted lol

He didn't use his hand, they just swung. (At the game, not watching on tv)
