TrueBlueGED Posted April 15, 2012 Report Share Posted April 15, 2012 Look for Asham and Neal to be suspended. $2500 fines. Nothing to see here. Maybe you can argue what Asham did was worse since he used his stick as a weapon...but how is what Neal did any worse than Weber deliberately smashing Zetterberg's face into the glass? Actually scratch that, $2500 fines would mean some semblance of consistency, so I fully expect suspensions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Punch Posted April 15, 2012 Report Share Posted April 15, 2012 The Penguins can never live that down... even if Hartnell is a ######. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eleven Posted April 15, 2012 Report Share Posted April 15, 2012 Adams for third man in and hair-pulling? Any one of four or five guys for instigating within the last five minutes? All sorts of possibilities, here. Let's see how Shanny screws this one up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darksabre Posted April 15, 2012 Report Share Posted April 15, 2012 I don't understand why Crosby hasn't been thrown out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weave Posted April 15, 2012 Report Share Posted April 15, 2012 Holy mother of................... What a stinkin mess. I don't understand why Crosby hasn't been thrown out. I don;t know why he'd even be on the ice during all that. I'd have his ass safely on the bench while all that tension was out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eleven Posted April 15, 2012 Report Share Posted April 15, 2012 Rinaldo should have known that a hit like that late in a game like this was 2. And then he should have shut up about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weave Posted April 15, 2012 Report Share Posted April 15, 2012 He was the one instigating all of it. I don't know. I'd say Neal had the most to do with it. By the time Crosby got tangled up with Hartnell Neal had already got the bees buzzing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bmwolf21 Posted April 15, 2012 Report Share Posted April 15, 2012 Refs completely lost control of that situation while they were sorting out the penalties and getting guys to the box. And I couldn't care less if Hartnell's hair got pulled. You don't want your hair pulled in a fight, you can either a) not fight b) cut your hair or c) a and b.

By the time Crosby got tangled up with Hartnell Neal had already got the bees buzzing. Simmonds started it w/ Neal, I thought. Then Hartnell wanted to go over and join the "conversation," and Crosby horse-collared him. If the league is serious about this no-instigating-in-final-five stuff, there will be hearings for Simmonds and Crosby. But there won't be, of course. They should replace God Bless America with circus music. :lol: Nice one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheChimp Posted April 15, 2012 Report Share Posted April 15, 2012 You're not alone... imagine empty nets at both ends. That would be old midway through one period. I see. So the game ended with Philly only having taken 8 shots to Pittsburgh's 4 shots, then. And they all went in. Yeah, I see your point. :ph34r: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheChimp Posted April 15, 2012 Report Share Posted April 15, 2012 I wish both of these teams could lose. Pittsburgh is going to lose this series, and unfortunately it doesn't even look like they'll make it back home for game 5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JJFIVEOH Posted April 15, 2012 Report Share Posted April 15, 2012 I don't understand why Crosby hasn't been thrown out. I do, he's the NHL's Golden Boy. It's an embarassment to the league the way they cater to him. He was the one instigating all of it. EXACTLY!!! With all the instigating he's been involved in this series he deserves to get his ass beat because the league certainly won't do anything about it. Simmonds started it w/ Neal, I thought. Then Hartnell wanted to go over and join the "conversation," and Crosby horse-collared him. If the league is serious about this no-instigating-in-final-five stuff, there will be hearings for Simmonds and Crosby. But there won't be, of course. Nice one The league may have done something about that situation, but now that Cindy is involved it will get swept under the rug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thesportsbuff Posted April 16, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2012 Crosby didn't "instigate" anything lol. Neal brought it upon himself, Crosby was just being a good team mate by grabbing a much bigger guy in Hartnell to prevent him from getting after Neal, who already had Simmonds and another Flyer after him. I mean, I get the hate for Crosby making Miller his bitch every time they're on the same ice, but let's not make stuff up... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm totally with you, but man, you know this is a giant redwood you're barking up, right? I don't know if there is a single team's fanbase that isn't fully stocked with Crosby haters, and they will literally cricicise him for A N Y T H I N G now.
