Johnny English, is that your fine British accent beneath that centurion costume? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gi5nCd1ZVrw
I think you're barking up the wrong forum contesting that the entire sport of hockey is a joke because of the way a suspension is handled
From RangersOnDemand (apparently) Lines for tonight: Fedotenko - Richards - Gaborik Duby - Ansimov - Callahan Kreider - Boyle - Prust Mitchell - Stepan - Rupp McD - Girardi Staal - Stralman Del Zotto - Bickel
It could be worse, imagine if the NHL was like the NBA :rofl: Now there's a joke of a league where the refs decide the rules as they go along. NFL seems to be the best run in general, but you still have some wacky suspensions from the commissioner's office
that was assault and battery on the ice what Canker did. Sorry, that's outside the bounds of what should be accepted in society. IDGAF if fighting is accepted in hockey. To get only 1 game for that is disgusting.
What do you want me to tell you? Don't watch if you get so hot and bothered over it. There's a lot of great athletes that do special things to a couple ounces of rubber with a composite stick. For you to discount everything else just to highlight the parts you don't like isn't really fair either. Great time of year where there's plenty of other choices in the world of sports, go watch YES, SNY, MSG, ESPN, TNT.
Andrew Gross said Scott has a nameplate above his locker but Kreider doesn't, meaning Scott might be playing this one. Take it with a grain of salt, b/c Torts might just be keeping Ottawa guessing wrong. I hope we see Kreider though. If those are the lines, they make sense. Feds has a history playing with Richards down in Tampa and Torts is putting the Pack Line back together. I would think Kreider starts on the 4th line to get his feet wet, but there really aren't any other options other than moving Steps to 3rd line LW and having Mitchell Center the 4th line. I don't have a good feeling about tonight. Apparently Alfredsson passed all his baseline concussion tests and will be playing.
thank you Fatman. I'm watching the pens-flyers rerun right now to pass the time from yesterday, and the 3 game suspension to hagelin looks even weaker than it already is. lots of cheap shots going on all over the place.
Torts is trolling everybody. Switched Kreider/Scott half a dozen times before finally going with Kreider.
