inkman Posted October 29, 2015 Report Share Posted October 29, 2015 That was the one example of why I want Kane on his line. I'll take Delauries for a $1000 Alex. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doohicksie Posted October 29, 2015 Report Share Posted October 29, 2015 ...and then there's Pierre McGuire.... Watching Pens/Caps with Emrick/McGuire calling the game. I can't listen to McGuire anymore without picturing Leggio doing an impersonation of him. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't listen to McGuire anymore without picturing Leggio doing an impersonation of him. :D You know what the video needs at the end? "Oh, and the Pens Score! What a great play by Crosby there, he was on the bench but clearly had a large part in that goal."

LTS Posted October 29, 2015 Report Share Posted October 29, 2015 You see that a lot. Sometimes I think it's an optical illusion where on TV it looks like they're a stride away but in reality the distance might be so great the backchecker knows he's not getting there and might let up. It's no excuse. There might be a rebound or something and he'd want to be down the ice as quickly as possible. Hockey's a very tough sport to analyze while watching on TV. It's still no goal. I can't wrap my head around wanting to allow kicked-in goals. It's not hockey anymore, and it's dangerous. I would be more clear on how I said that. Kicking should only account if the foot is barely off the ice. Clearly don't want someone raising a skate up too high there. But on a play like the Foligno play.. that should be a goal all day long. There is a desire to increase scoring.. let it happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure any Buffalo fan wants to encourage more skate blades flying around (Malarchuk, Zednick). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
