Thorny Posted September 26, 2020 Report Share Posted September 26, 2020 (edited) "He didn't actually feel it cause he has the regular equipment on so he must have been faking" is a take. Edited September 26, 2020 by Thorny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every time a player drops his stick after being slashed they all of a sudden have weak grip? Can't tell if serious? "Hey Sid, did that slash on the arm get under the pad? No? Ok, NO CALL!" I’m absolutely serious. And you are going to have a hard time proving me wrong. To the NHL, the result of a play has almost been the largest factor in how they dole out punishment.

To the NHL, the result of a play has almost been the largest factor in how they dole out punishment. I didn't say the result and neither did you. You said he wouldn't have felt it cause he had a jock on. Whether he felt pain or not is irrelevant. I don't have to prove you wrong - you are wrong. Pain is not a determining factor for penalty calls. The closest is blood on a high sticking call, and even that doesn't necessarily imply pain/how much was felt. If you high stick someone in the visor, it's a penalty. Regardless of contact/pain. Edited September 26, 2020 by Thorny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwampD Posted September 26, 2020 Report Share Posted September 26, 2020 I’m a hockey rube, and even I know that if I feel a stick in my junk, I’m taking a dive to get the call. He dove. Get over it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m saying that the reason he stopped skating and fell to the ice was not because he was hit in the nuggets, it was because he new if he did that, he could draw a penalty. That’s a dive.

That’s a dive. Just not going to be able to get there. Your position is assuming several pieces of knowledge from within the player's head, it's too dicey for my liking. I'm simply looking at the amount of contact being made and determining it to be sufficient to constitute a hook. This wasn't a hard determination to make as it was very comparable to the contact of most other hooking calls. It's just about consistency. I'm arguing it in a practical sense and you are more on the ideological side. I can see your point it's just not how the game is generally officiated.

Spun Posted September 26, 2020 Report Share Posted September 26, 2020 Hooking one’s vulnerable zone for what reason? I doubt it was stimulating nor invigorating. Dallas caught a break on the 5-hole hook and got screwed on the GWG. The officiating was bad tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spun Posted September 26, 2020 Report Share Posted September 26, 2020 I listened to the TB radio feed (WFLA) for a couple of games earlier in the playoffs. They have a guy doing the play-by-play. Not bad, very passionate on the TB goals. And they have this other guy who sounded rough and very unpolished. I knew I had heard the voice before. Phil Esposito! Openly rooting! Moaning and groaning! It was very hard to listen to the broadcast. But then some of his analysis was spot on.. I guess he is about 78 y.o. He was never popular in Buffalo as he was part of the Big Bad Bruins when the Sabres entered the league. Still not! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All of a sudden his legs just don’t work anymore?! He embelished. Good call. I play hockey.. I wear a cup, I've taken a stick to the nuggets.. you most assuredly feel it.

I just acknowledge that he is (more was, but still a little bit) a good hockey player with an edge to his game that helps win games. Every winning line up needs some guys like that on it.
