  1. Just watched the replay ... I'd send the ref to the protocol room.
  2. I can't stand the guy, but great freeze, shot, by Marchand
  3. Good sixty minutes ... Let's make it worthwhile I have no stats, but ROR seemed nearly unbeatable on face offs.
  4. I have isolation issues ....
  5. Chara -Gionta ---- I'm waiting for Jack to question Jack's IQ for punching someone smaller!
  6. You caught me! I posted in the wrong thread! I was hitting re-fresh and wondering where everyone went.
  7. I'm with you ... I'm with you ...
  8. The puck seems to, oh, I don't know ... find some guys.
  9. Yes ... And then moved out of the crease to "exchange pleasantries" with him!
  10. Russians don't take a dump, son, without a plan ....
  11. A bit late to the fun .... I'm not staking a claim, but I think there's a bit of Frasier in me, as We've posited. And I see a bit of Eleven in him, as Eleven remarked, but I can't see Frasier doing a blue cheese palm wash!
  12. Confession: it was easy for me to provide a gross over simplification. I can defend the logic. However, the league has more parties it's responsible to than I have. Pure logic at the expense of anything else isn't one of the parties. I just heard the full league's pronouncement on Sirius XM. They admitted to splitting the baby and acknowledged the concussion. Perhaps their gray is better than my black and white. Paraphrasing - He was concussed, but had the presence of mind and control of his faculties sufficient to skate steadily to the bench, tap the ice and raise his stick for a line change, and return to action. He was quite aware of his surroundings. Although cloudy, judgment was present and the act was deliberate. #WorldsFastestBacktracker PS: An interesting conversation could follow regarding medical help, a player's input, and the pressures of competitive world class competition and huge dollars. Ask a man making huge money at the top of his profession, with hundreds of nearly as capable men lined up to take his joy/livelihood away, if he wants to submit to a test that becomes a negative part of his record if he fails it. "No, I'm good" is what you'll get. This is a big NHLPA hot potato, I'm sure.
  13. PastaJoe- I dig the avatar. I will no longer think of you (most respectfully) as James Carville. Instead, I will think of you as John Scott and HRC as Ryan Miller. If/when she's POTUS, I'll elevate you to Dave Semenko and HRC to Gretzky.
  14. Dear rules committee: A concussed human being cannot accurately self assess. Respectfully yours, Common Sense. CC: NHLPA. Gross Over-Simplification. The suspension should be 0 games or Life, depending on the medical report.
  15. One of the interesting things I've found over forty years of watching hockey: the concepts of "grit" and "hard to play against" entering the lexicon when discussing European hockey players. I grew up when Europeans were "soft". Of course, they never were. The triumph of evidence over prejudice!
  16. This is just such a good post. Bruised, not jaded or cynical, captures a belief I have with a word I hadn't.
  17. Rand Paul is an honorable Senator whose view is important to inform, and too narrow to govern, 330 million people. I'd live in his world. That proves my point. I think Madison would vote for him.
  18. Vision ...
  19. Bone in ribeye
  20. Haven't been there, but I've been to the Salt Rock right up the road. Visit!
  21. Just let me know! I like that area.
  22. I think Montreal having played since the ASG has helped them.
  23. PK Subban -- always engaged or often distracted?
  24. This time of year there's some truth to that. Sarasota, Fort Myers and Naples are worse.
  25. TBJ - Tampa ... Brandon, actually ... 90 minutes
