Well, in this fantasy land called "What would YOU do?" I would also make it an automatic $10K fine for hitting the goalie in the head while in the trapezoid.
Thanks for the link. I'd give Backstrom 1 game, just like I said I would have given Asham 1 game, until Asham then jumped on Schenn and punched him in the back of the head.
Backstrom - 1 game
Asham - out for series. Had he just kept it to the high cross check I would have said 1 game
The point is that Shanny needs to be consistent. Weber getting away with banging a guy's head into the glass and then Shaw getting 3 games for brushing past Smith and hitting him in the head with a shoulder (NOT a raised elbow)? Fucking ridiculous how terribly inconsistent this is.
Oh man... this is so awesome. =D And I have no idea why the Bruins players did that. Were they reacting a to a potential goal in OT?
Plinko
Wildcard berths that can't beat teams without a winning record should have homefield advantage
That's ridiculous and not even close to Asham's.
Is that Pierre?

That's who I thought it was.....
I hope NBC doesn't send him back to Canada because of this.
I would have disbanded the league and thrown the Cup into Mt. Doom.
I guess suspending everyone is a bit harsh. I guess just those who were in line for punishment will suffice.

That's awesome, where are you sitting?
My brother is going to the game today. I might be able to get a ticket for his office's box for the next game but I really should be saving up on money

flyers shirts they're giving away before tomorrow's game:
But do we have the death sentence on twelve systems?
haha yeah, the guy's face is my reaction upon figuring out that's Pierre in the Bruins GIF
kind of a reach, but it's a funny photo anyway
Well Shaw got 3 games already, Shanahan is busy today. What meeting is on now, Asham's?

Asham was @ 5EST, I would think they're close to wrapping up though I don't know how long these can go for.
That's according to McKenzie, he waived the in-person to do it over the phone. I almost expect this will be the longest (playoff suspension) since Rome but you know how useless it is to guess suspensions.
ashams meeting whenever the penguins come to philly, which i guess will be tomorrow. neals hearings are done.
or 5est like fixed said....

by the way bish, my tag link broke so we need a new link
Not convinced letting Daniel play is the best idea, especially during the playoffs, when you just know LA is gonna take a run at him.

If he plays it is going to be a huge mistake. Well depend on if he actually is ready to or not.
Richards is probably going to make them regret having him play.
Booth should not be with the Sedins.
And I don't understand how Daniel could possibly play tomorrow. His status over the past 8 days has been so sporadic. If there's any risk, I'd think he won't be playing. The organization wouldn't be so stupid to risk his long-term health when down 3-0.
Shanahan has no idea what he's doing

I would think that he will only play if the team doctors 100% confident in that re-injury is unlikely. It has been ~3 weeks so who knows really.

This poster pulses with an appeal so broad the typical restraints of our societies fall by the wayside.
I'm pretty sure that was from Game 2 against the Flyers last year. Krejci scored in OT but it wasn't initially ruled a goal because it hit the center pipe and came out of the net; it had to be reviewed. Good times.

I can see it either way, Booth can be a pretty big physical presence on the ice at time which always helps mobile forwards, at the same time he seems at his best on the rush with the puck, not on a cycle.
4 weeks.

I was close to saying a month and thought that there's no way it's been that long but you're right. Fuck that's kinda sad.

God, when I did a gif involving blood it took forever and looks like shit. There is much to be learned
I was going to do the same gif (Smith being decapitated) and when I thought about the work it would take to do the blood I didn't bother. Would probably take a while to do it the first time (albeit a lot easier/quicker every time after that once you've figured it out).

Looking at it, whoever made it changed the blood every three or so frames instead of every frame (which is what I did) and probably cuts down on a ton of the work. Gotta get that technique going

So, no one's hyped for Devils/Panthers Game 3 at the Rock in Newark?
I am. I cant wait for the Panthers to win tonight.

I don't think Shaw should be suspended, and I'm a coyotes fan. He got 5 minutes and kicked out of the game. Coyotes scored a pp goal off of it. Fine him $2.5k and get on with it.

New Johnny Canuck video! They're always extremely well made, definitely worth a watch.

Now thursdays game feels like a must win, I hope you wil be watching, that goes out to you too Big buba Guns. The hockey is a lot different but still great.
And there should be some better streams next game.
Extremely well made, as always.
Poorly timed. They obviously didn't expect the Canucks to be in this situation so soon.
What if Smith was done for the series because of the collision?

Then we lose, cry myself to sleep, and move on
Oh the Coyotes will be doing a lot of moving in the offseason alright.
