Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Stanley cup thread?

Unbiased Pens fan here, and I concur. It was a fast play on the puck that resulted in a bad collision. Kadri, for a change, had no ill-intent on that play.

As a blues fan I can't believe NO ONE jumped on Kadri after that. There wasn't a penalty and I guess they didn't want to take one, but defend your dang teammate come on guys! After the Barbashev his on Girard I figured something was coming but didn't expect that. I also don't think Kadri had "ill intent" on the hit but regardless there should have been a scrap over that!

I don't think Kadri did it intentionally, it is the game he plays and as you point out, but consequences have to follow that kind of play, that's hockey, always has been.

Bertuzzi should of never played another game, like Moore never did.

I'm not surprised that neither team wanted to take a penalty. Regular season yes, but this was a key game for both teams to advance.

I just heard Girard is out for the rest of the year...spleen. It looked like a concussion by the blood from his nose, but I guess he really got compressed into the boards, that's too bad.

I just read that he had a broken sternum. That play to me was worse than the collision with the goalie, but what do I know?

Kadri was tied up with the defenseman, if you watch the replay you can see him turn his skates and try to slow down before he got there. Barbashev checked Girard's head into the boards.

Cheap shot with the intent of hurting someone is bush league. If you intentionally injure someone, your minimum suspension should be the length of time they are out. If it's career ending, so be it.

Av's fan, but the Doug Draper hit by Claude Lemieux was egregious too and he should have been tossed until Draper recovered and then served additional time.

Bertuzzi should have never played again. Vancouver putting a bounty on Moore was criminal. Scott May and Marc Crawford were culpable too.

All sports have a risk of injury, but sucker punches are BS. Throwing at the head of batters, vicious face mask, and so on need to stop.

I think what has happened in Hockey is they have unintentionally interfered with the natural law of how shyte works. You run a guy, someone drops the gloves etc...now you run a guy, the players look up at the clock to see if there are any penalties.

Gordie Howe was one of the dirties players ever, his favorite infraction was an elbow, not driving someones head into the boards, Gordie Howe dropped the gloves often.

Tampa Bay for the sweep?

Missed that one today, but looks that way.
Watching the McDavid show right now, not even halfway through the game and he has about 6 highlights, 2 points and the Oilers are up 3-0. Just when you think he can't step it up...he does.

Well the part of me that still is sour on the whole incident is how he claimed he was pushed.
Hell he took out the blues player so they both could take out the goalie. Then he can sit back and claim victim. Im not sold just yet it was an accident. Even if it wasn’t, protocol says the note should have done something.

You know he ain't sorry about taking out what really is the ace for the blues, Binnie's exellent.

It’s not the he ain’t sorry issue, it’s the I still think he he knew exactly what he was doing and did so with the intent to achieve the end result and knowing he could some how pass it off as an unfortunate event.

They just said Binnie is out for the rest of the year.

Luciic knew exactly what he was doing tonight on Miller that was intentional to achieve the end result no one else involved
My opinion on the Kadri incident was hard nose playoff hockey
Girard hit was clean playoff hit

Miller came back & finished the game

Mike Smith is his name. Lucic isn't known for cheap play, Kadri is.

SWEEEEEP

TB looks tough to beat going forward.
Everyone wants to destroy Kadri over on the other one lol.

Playoff hockey is tough. Kadri was pushed while going after a loose puck in front of the net.
