Someone mentioned they played a tune from Punch-Out!! as well at some point

Congorats Dallas. No sweep!

 

[Fata1moose]

So all the home ice teams went 2-0 in the WC, now three of the series are 2-1.

Hope San Jose players watch out for Brown's knee. Maybe Cooke will be made an example of before then.

Edit: Mike Yeo said he didn't see the hit, what a cunt. He knew what happened.

 

[Freyjadour]

Someone post a link of the FF music when it hits the butts.

It was literally right in front of him when it happened. Willing to bet if you go back and watch the footage he'll be in frame staring at it happening.

Really, what they need to do is get rid of the instigator rule.

Then assholes like Cooke wouldn't be able to get away with what they do without having to pay the price.

Never forget.

Avs should trade for Kane in the offseason.

 

[Red_Man]

Montreal is the only team to go 3-0. Who would have thought.

Edit: Forgot Sharks still have a chance

I don't really like the kid but god damn seeing that right now is pretty cathartic. Now if only Bordeleau would do his fucking job.

 

[DERF]

We will

Who are these newbie fans with their lack of hope. LACK OF HOPE!

Edit: wow at these penalties in this game.

My wife is the hardcore hockey fan, she is slowly converting me to one as well.

His knee is already swung out ready to go, when Barrie turned Cooke then pivoted so his knee was still pointed at Barrie's.

"And you hope Cooke is okay" he says unconvincingly.

 

[Unhandled Exception]

Anyway, apologies to any innocent bystanders who got my salt on them today. I had a feeling before the game started that Cooke getting more ice time would lead to something bad happening. Then the injuries kept coming, Wild fans booing injured players on the ice etc. It was not a good night. Varlamov was godly though.. so there's that I guess. Also I'm somehow not banned by the grace of bish.

Why are you failing to review the other angle where Barrie tries to duck the hit? Cook was committed and he ducked it, that knee collision would not have happened otherwise.

Night fishing with friends doesn't get much better

Relax people playoffs would been better some of u need to chill out it's crazy

Bish is a fair and just ruler.

I'm surprised your salt didn't get you a couple days.

I said Barrie turned and tried to avoid it and Cooke adjusted his knee so it was still pointing, not that it matters anyway you don't blame the victim for getting kneed, because Barrie tried to avoid Cooke sticking his knee out at him doesn't make it peachy.

Bish is Salladhor Saan.

Ducks need a Brad May type player to keep Dallas honest.

Yeah, cos I'm invested in either of these teams. I call it like I see it, objectively.

Clearly you see poorly, because fuckface adjusted his path with his knee still leading after Barrie sidestepped. It was intentional.

You said something objectively stupid, that's about it.

You said something objectively stupid, maybe.

There's obviously no reasoning with you two. I'm not saying the onus is on Barrie for taking a knee shot, however from the replay I don't think Cooke could have prevented it, nor do I believe he was intentionally trying to injure Barrie.

 

[TrueGrime]

Cooke up to his shit again? I can't see the video on my phone. Connection is so slow here.

 

[Giggzy]

He led with his fucking knee the entire way through. Give me some of that dope you're smoking

 

[Unhandled Exception]

Pretty sure that's the same Flames fan swearing what's his face didn't hit Sedin in the numbers a week or two ago. Not even going to bother.

edit: Here is my comedic relief for the night - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NKgE4_Oxa0o

 

[Vman]

The Matt Cooke factor in full effect. Should be a game or two but will be many more due to his rep even though he's not a repeat offender as considered by the league. IN person hearing btw.

Seriously? Checking the avs' schedule shows they played the flames then and won. Pretty sure I felt the same way when the avs beat the rangers a few weeks back. That doesn't mean he's not objective at all

I'm joking, we actually lost that game though.

I hope he wasn't trying to injure Barrie either.

However, after watching the video several times, I think Cooke had plenty of time to realize that he was going to miss his hit. Instead of missing the hit, he opted to catch Barrie's knee instead.

Well aren't I a fool?

Someone give Melynk a call and have his forensics crew investigate this.

Sharp knees are all that can get Cooke off anymore

GG ducks gaf see you Wednesday

I think he's technically not a repeat offender, so they can't fine him as much, but they still can take past actions into account for suspensions so in that case he is a repeat offender, no expiration date on that. I don't know, The NHL is fucking stupid when it comes to rules/guidelines.

That's kind of the joke though. Not to mention I'm fairly certain the CBA really only says repeat offenders will be fined more, not necessarily be given more games when disciplined. Prior history is where that will play into things and stupidly enough there is a difference in how the league defines those two terms.

 

[TrueGrime]

That is a disgusting rap sheet.

 

[Giggzy]

Yeah it is. Targets the top players on the opposition as well. Would like to see how long those hits put the other player out for compared to his soft suspensions

Well, of that list of players he ruined one career/quality of life. How do we calculate that?

Of course it wouldn't have happened otherwise. So what? You're allowed to avoid hits. Hell, I'm pretty sure you're encouraged to. That doesn't mean that the other player is given free license to knee you. Matt Cooke, reborn, paid his debts to society, a productive citizen, surprise surprise he's still a reckless, kneeing fuckhead.
