Yeah in theory sounds simple but then when I think about the fact of exactly what phone am I calling his job with? Impersonating a cop I am pretty sure is against the law and I'm sure this office probably has call display in this day and age.
Seems more likely this would blow up on me then him.
Yeah, I looked at the gifs I made last night over and over again, even in slo mo. I still think it's easy to see the head contact and seeing his head snap back before any other body reaction. But.. I'm done discussing it, hoping a speedy recovery for Eller.
My main issue is the thought mentality going through a players mind when they go to deliver a hit that will no doubt crush the player. You can say you don't intent to injure, but when a hit is that clean, what do you expect to happen? When freight trains run over a car on the tracks, it's always a disaster. If that gets labelled a clean hockey hit, I guess I've got an issue with "clean hockey hits" *shrug* That being said, Subban's hit on Neil was great.

Come on now, there is only about 30 ducks fans out there, I wouldn't call that sizeable.
We're like the 300 Spartans. Fuck all compared to original 6 teams/armies, but we seriously won't shut up. It's painful having to put up with all these shirtless Ducks fans with Teemu tattooed on their chest yelling "ALL WE DO IS WEEN WEEN".
Would he let you use his phone? Or was he implying you use yours? If you have to use yours, then yeah, fuck that. But right now it sounds like some dickhead who is trying to get out of work (... by getting into trouble with the cops?) and just needs a big dude with a deep voice to say he's getting pounded in the cell by Harley and his Superleague of Friendly Fondling.

Da fuq...something tells me that will not happen lmao.
Anyway I trust in Bobby Mac and Kerry Fraiser who both agree it was a clean hit. Let's see what the league does.

Well shit, that one circumstance truly outweighs the numerous missed calls we've gotten. And definitely outweighs the Souray penalty we got in the 3rd that was the only one given from a net scramble where 3 different penalty-giving circumstances from both teams occurred.
Plus they're serious about 3 certain penalties this season: Goaltender interference, Delay of game and Embellishment.

@Tabris: ... which is why the Canucks currently suck.

At this point you're kind've just scraping for reasons to be happy about yesterday, aren'tcha Solo?
What's the franchise record for amount of purple Gatorade drunk in a period? Maybe they broke that!

Peverley skating with the 3rd line today, Daugavins with the scratches.
I think you're giving the Habs a bit too much credit here, they thoroughly dominated the second period, yes, but the rest of the game was pretty much a wash IMO.
Edit: I really hope Eller is ok, he seems like a great guy.

But HFboards told me he's a career backup goalie.
We probably had opening night jitters, considering how many rookies make up our lineup.
I hope "BGally" and/or Prust will be seeing a dentist tomorrow night if they so much as look at Anderson the wrong way.

It makes me so happy when fans of East teams get to witness how much of a fuckwit Brown is during any part of the season.

Really does feel good. How many times have the sens outplayed their opponent only to get fucked by either their own goalie or the other team's (or both).
That being said, the second period of last night's game cannot happen again.

You guys would have won anyway if price didn't let in those two softies in the third.
My friend, a huge red wings fans, introduced me to that name. He agreed that the refs favored his team these past two games.
*shrugs*
Brown is a dirty bastard.
Knees the guy.
Tries to hit him in the face with the elbow as well.
He ALWAYS does this...Brown is a dirty bastard.
Outside of Kesler during the Kings series, embellishment hasn't really been a problem for the Canucks since the 2011 playoffs (when it seemed like it was a problem across several teams). But they did still get called for it a few times this season, just as reputation calls. They haven't been able to shake it.
Yeah I know you just wanted to burn Tabris but I see these comments all the time from people who are going by *nothing* and thought it deserved a reply for once.

OK, as long as we're clear on this.
I watched the last game, and that wasn't even on the radar as an issue.
I don't drink beer, sucka! Free food for me!!!I'll say what. Refs love giving momentum to Detroit
Great game last night. I'm happy with the way we fought back but overall I'm disappointed in our play. We have an extremely bad habit of coming out flat and the opposing team will always take advantage of it. Making defensive zone errors with datsyuk and zetterburg on the ice is a recipe for disaster. Bruce needs to iron that out.
BBQ at my house for the game Saturday. All are invited

Do you drink at all, or just not beer?
I don't actually care if you do or not, nobody should have to conform to ANYTHING to do with ingestion, just curious really.
Brown is a dirty bastard.
Wow. Fuck this guy. Seriously. Fuck him. He should get a suspension for the intent alone. Had he connected with knee and elbow, the other player could have been seriously fucked up. This is just a disgusting play. Fuck. This. Guy.

How about:
Bourque-Plekanec-Pacioretty

Prust-Galchenyuk-Gallagher
Moen-Halpern-White
Fuck DD off the 1st line. Might be good for Pleky too. He hasn't been at the top of his game lately.
Brown is a dirty bastard.
Bring that %*$? to the vet already.
Bullshit. Everybody needs Poutine.
CONFORM!
I don't like the taste of beer... or, I haven't found a beer I like. I'll drink it at special events but I won't go out and drink.
I'm a fan of jello shots or shots in general. Wine is mighty good too.

You guys are making it seem like he's dead... geez. He'll be back in no time stretching boxing.
Brown is a dirty bastard.
For a moment, I thought I was watching a playoff game from last year vs. Phoenix.
Somehow I hadn't really heard the term suicide pass before. In rugby & league they call it a hospital pass.

Bruins D pairings at practice:
Zdeno Chara-Adam McQuaid
Dennis Seidenberg-Johnny Boychuk
Wade Redden-Dougie Hamilton
Andrew Ference-Aaron Johnson
They had been having Dougie with either Chara or Seidenberg all year.

Suicide pass / hospital pass are awesome names for this. Much better than saying "hanging your receiver out to dry" in football.

I really hope the league accelerates its plans to overhaul player equipment. I think once soft pads are used again we won't see those kinds of hits any more (unless Gryba wanted to shatter his shoulder).
Well, shit. I think the Isles will bring their legs this game however.
