GDT: Toronto Maple Leafs @ Winnipeg Jets 7:00pm on CBC Sat, Oct, 22nd

How can a play that would be a crime out on the streets (elbow to a guys head) not be a penalty? Marner has the evidence all over his face.

For the love of God this league is stuck in the 1980s "penalty management" era. It's 2022, protect the players, they need to be sound of mind after their playing days are over.

 

[robertmac43]

Clifford is a joke man, cannot be taking penalties like that..

 

[fahad203]

So is anyone on the team going to stick up for Marner and make someone pay?

There are two bubble guys who was on waivers are dressed tonight. I mean if they are not going to do anything, I am not really not sure why you even dressed them

 

[BayStBullies]

The Jets are headhunting star players instead of the enforcers. When your PP is cold, there is no risk.

 

[Darcy Tucker]

You clowns got your wish. Marner just got Kris Draper'ed on national TV. Tomorrow should be a fun reading day.

 

[therealkoho]

Good thing about HNIC 1st intermissions now is it gives me a full 15 minutes to do what I need to do

Hopefully Tara Sloane is going to be given 5 minutes to rant about Grapes, she seems to be on a cancel crusade, it seems there's been some talk about sanctifying the Coach somewhere recently. WTFknows

 

[as Pure as Evil]

clifford and simmonds are just biding they're time, sooner or later with the long change they will go after who is needed.

 

[fahad203]

That was not anywhere near Draper. But someone in the team should be reminding the jets
I wouldn't be a bit bothered if you start with Dubois.

 

[Al14]

That hit on Marner should have been boarding!

It's their thing the last few years, Wheeler, Pionk and Dubois have always been dirty pticks

 

[Canada4Gold]

Bieksa

Nah it's nothing, I mean oh yeah that looks bad, maybe it might have could have been something sometimes maybe

I'm paraphrasing

 

[BackPassChampions]

We were on PP

For sure, but the fact that this team has had this pattern of behaviour which creates a certain soft perception around the league is pathetic.

Your star player gets drilled from behind, clearly in pain on the ice and no call. That's an instant scrap in my books. F^&* the power play.

This team just doesn't protect one another the way a TEAM should. It's alarming and happening for too long and isn't being corrected. This IS a PROBLEM.

 

[robertmac43]

No penalty on that Marner play is ridiculous.

 

[Teeder Keon]

Or
Anyone else disappointed in ZAR thus far ?
I thought he would be a hell of a lot more physical, nasty and in your face and so far anyway , a little underwhelming

 

[Darcy Tucker]

I'd eat his and your breakfast and laugh.

There are still 2 periods to go. Let's judge the team after the game
I'll be really surprised if Simmonds or Clifford doesn't do anything

They both know they are on borrowed time right now.

 

[Leafblooded]

Wow Bieska and Ron need to shut the f*** up

 

[egd27]

That hit on Marner should have been boarding!

Which ref is #24 because he was staring right at the play.

 

[therealkoho]

Bieksa can committ unnatural acts on dead skunks

 

[Azail]

So is anyone on the team going to stick up for Marner and make someone pay?

But I thought having Clifford and Simmonds in the game would protect our stars...

 

[CantLoseWithMatthews]

I'm surprised Marner was boarded even though Clifford and Simmonds are playing. It's almost like the idea of a physical deterrent on the 4th line is meaningless

 

[fahad203]

I am. I thought he would bring a bit more zest to the game. Can't say I have seen anything.
I am more dissapointed in Jarnkrok.... he's so vanilla

 

[SprDaVE]

It's just a f***ing joke and shameless how that goes uncalled. Leafs just can't get a break.

I'm sure the next hit will be called charging randomly. They love to do that.

Thats blind willy, he didn't see anything

#24 is Skilliter
