Commentary in that game is going to be UNBEARABLE, isn't it?
That's a very good point. Someone in charge needs to pull his head out of his ass and do something before something really bad happens.
My biggest pet peeve is the lack of helmet improvements, or carelessness by players. IMO face shields/cages should mandatory, not just visors. Also, I've mentioned it before, but please make the players have their helmets locked on tight for the love of god, they come off way too damn easily.
Eller hit knocking him out not withstanding, if the majority of damage comes from his face hitting the ice, which seems to be the case, that would've a non issue if he wore a full face cage.
Don't bring this crap here.

Do you know what, I'm just going to soak in this win and watch this over and over and over again until we collapse in game 3:

Found this pic amusing. And a little boggling.
Apparently the Rangers can jump.

It'll be funny when the Pens lose tonight.
If I had my way DD wouldn't even be on the team.
Hopefully. Some players are never the same after these kind of injuries. This playoff was supposed to be Eller's coming out party.

Brown is a dirty bastard.
Yeah, that's some b.s.
I was already rooting against them because of Jeff Carter, this just adds to it.
Come on, Blues.
I like you.
Just put that Ottawa Sun cover on the bulletin board. No need for anything else.
Lol i was going to post this!

You misunderstand me. Don't post it to get the guys bloodthirsty and take dumb penalties. Post it to motivate them to win for Larry.

Had we won this game, I'd be feeling really confident about this series. Now, I don't know...
I WANT TO BELIEVE!

I'm amazed that Cleary didn't fall down at any point in that gif.
Yeah... If I had my way I'd start Budaj too.
In what kind of state of mind is Price right now? If he allows one more bad goal he'll be crushed and you know the crowd sure as fuck won't help. Back to back games. Perfect excuse.
Oh man... I dunno really. It's a bit of lose-lose situation...
Anyway. Not gonna happen. Hopefully Carey gets his shit together STAT.
Proves it wasnt a headshot and the worse was face first on the ice
How the hell does that prove anything?
Ice will be suspended for game two.
Don't think it proves anything. He was out cold BEFORE hit he the ice. The broken nose and teeth came from the fall, because he was unconscious and couldn't protect himself.
So something happened on the initial hit that knocked him out.
:lol

Awww isn't that cute, wanna-be tough guy Prust is upset at our coach now.
You tell me that's not a headshot the way his head snaps back first before anything else. edit: but yes, as I did mention, the majority of facial damage does come his face hitting the ice, which is not helped by the fact he was out cold and defenseless on his way down.
the quote :lol :lol
ouch, shoulder to head. gryba has his arm tucked though. The hit is a little off the mark but it's not really a "dirty" hit.
I like Eller and it sucks to see him laid out but Diaz probably shouldn't have sent him that murder pass.

That might be the intent going in, but I can see Subban or Prust taking the message too much to heart.

It's mostly whiplash. If any head contact was made it was under the chin, you can see it as his body moves up during the initial contact.

Hope he sticks around and takes some dumb penalties. If that's what is on his and the Habs mind instead of the game then by all means.

Pacioretty and Gionta out for tonight with upper-body injuries D:
what the fuck

Wildcard berths that can't beat teams without a winning record should have homefield advantage

Looks like Crosby is back in the lineup for tonight.
He still isn't eating solid food, probably way underweight and fragile.

I hate to be a smartass but last time I checked, the chin was part of the head. So the first contact WAS the head.
Anyway... A suspension won't bring Eller back on the lineup so I don't really give a fuck to be honest.
Good thing we get to relax until Saturday! Professional sports postseasons are making less and less sense.
Wow.
