what if someone puts huge bet on the panthers now and they actually end up winning the game. whats the payout for the odds now?

 

[Guided by Veseys]

Looked like charging to me but pretty close. It was a dangerous hit with steps and acceleration involved.

 

[robertocarlos]

There's a shitbag rat in Boston you may like. Used to lowbridge people looking to hit him all the time. Did it once to one of the kindest humans on the planet causing a head injury too. FOH with this mentality.

He can't help it he's short.

 

[Tobias Kahun]

Tkachuk got a 10 minute misconduct for hitting him too hard.

"boys, we can still find our game if we reconcile our identity and our non-identity" - Carter VerHegel, locker room speech before the 3rd period

I don’t know what “it all came from that hit” means, it doesn’t say MT was given a penalty for the hit.

People were saying he was penalized for the hit itself but he wasn’t.

He got a misconduct for the fighting afterwards.

I don’t know what the exactly happened between him and Barbashev.

They drag the refs out to make comments on more obvious stuff but not this mess.

I’m not sure why they don’t explain this for everyone considering that many people think the hit got the penalty. That‘s not what the call was though.

Everything stemmed from that hit. He didn’t fight anyone? He pushed a few guys.

If you’re calling 10 on Tkachuk, why not call 10 on the two Golden Knights that went right after him immediately?

Tkachuk got a 10 minute misconduct for hitting him too hard.

Pronger physics.

 

[Sheppy]

Tell that to the person who wrote the rule, not me. I'm just quoting it.

It’s still not a charge, dude.

 

[Ducks DVM]

How are people not understanding this, I keep reading it was for after the hit, why was there no instigator for Vegas for retaliating after a clean hit lmao it's so bad.

Because there were no fighting penalties, just roughing. Instigator requires actual fighting calls.

 

[Nucker101]

I don't know why some people are having a hard time figuring this out. The hit was clean; the penalties were given for the scrum afterward because it's 4-0 and the refs are trying to keep the genie in the bottle.

That's stupid though, you have to deserve a 10 minute misconduct, this game management bullshit is just ridiculous.

Just like how a team who takes the first 2 or 3 penalties of a game and is losing has like a 80% chance of getting the next powerplay

 

[toothlessgoon]

Bobrovsky back to his choking ways. The Panthers sweeping the conference finals was a mistake. It ruined Bobrovsky's momentum and allowed him to get into his own head.

 

[biturbo19]

Not sure it was a "trip" more than it was him locking up and trying to bail as best he could because he saw the truck coming at the very last second.

Yeah. I wouldn't say Eichel "tripped". It really was just like a weird deer in headlights decision at the last second. He sorta just blanked for a second and ended up kind of going head/shoulder first into the oncoming big hit like a missile that fizzled on launch.

Clearly not a good decision. But really more of an unfortunate panic reaction than a "decision" tbh.

This is a silly way to read how charging is called in today's NHL. Charging is almost never called unless there is an upward acceleration or launching into the hit. Tkachuk doesn't do this and instead skates in the same plane driving through the shoulder of Eichel. It's as clean a hit as has ever been landed in the playoffs imo.

To even insinuate it's charging is silly given what counts as charging in the playoffs. Hell, #8 in WSH made a career of charging people with no calls.

If you bet with the legal sports sites, worse than it should be.

 

[Bozo Nicholson]

That’s the issue with having a well earned reputation as being a shit disturber. You get zero benefit of the doubt. I say that as a long time Ducks fan, and knowing that’s how it works for that type of player. His behavior 48 hours ago certainly didn’t help.

 

[robertocarlos]

So how does Eichel avoid the hit?

[William H Bonney]

Misconducts are the calls we have the least amount of insight into as fans. You can't analyze them the way you do a regular penalty. It won't stop everyone but at least stop pretending like you know why it was assessed.

 

[EverTheCynic]

I can only watch the highlights right now. No TV. How is the game flow? Is Vegas dominating as much as the score would suggest?

Not fall into it.

Responding to threads on live threads sucks ass.

one million dollars.

 

[ObeyPerry]

That is fine keep thinking that.

Skating with the puck counting his toes.

Yes. They're clearly the better team and executing exactly how they should as well. The Panthers are not executing AT ALL. At anything.

 

[JeffP]

yea, thats just not a good time to even things up IMHO, clean hit.
also, nothing wrong when Hill whacked him for being a turd in the net, he deserved that.

refs, step out of this and let the teams play unless it's getting crazy- look at the score
