Yeah, that was embarrassing for the league. What a tool.
Since it wasn't breaking any rule or anything at the time he was doing it, from what I understand he isn't even going to be punished for it. No fines, no suspension, nothing. Hopefully someone on the Devils takes care of him in the next game. That was one of the stupidest cheap things I've seen done in a professional game in awhile.

Actually, he did.
75.4 Misconduct Penalty
(iii) Any player or goalkeeper who, after warning by the Referee, persists in any course of conduct (including threatening or abusive language or gestures or similar actions) designed to incite an opponent into incurring a penalty.
The NHL issued a clarification on rule 75 today, saying that brandishing a high stick in somebody's face counts, as well it should.
Yeah I do too. We got exposed on Sunday for being a soft team. We cant be soft if we are going to win the Stanley Cup. I think the refs calls some BS power plays but we didnt match their physical side nor we let them skate all around us.
Power plays are key in this series. We seen them with those two power plays and they got goals from them and they snatched the momentum and came back. When we are on a power play its a struggle to even just set up. We need to hit them right back and match them physically. Sunday we got hit in the mouth and got punked and didnt do a d*** thing about it
yeah - another mediocre canadian team muscling them a little and creating odd chances and owning the specials play - i think i've read this script before
the team also needs to realize that their strength isn't playing a defensive game - they are great at puck control, movement and holding the offensive zone - everytime they lay back they get killed
also, don't let you captain get his head ran into the boards and bloodied without taking some kind of action - idiotic how this team plays sometimes

Man, I wanted to beat up the Cryers in the next round

Sorry, Philly, but though I want your guys to advance, it's only so the Pens can knock the Cryers out of the playoffs
On a serious note, though, what's with that one thug on Philly? Starts with an H...can't remember the name. He came out in the next-to-last game against the Pens literally trying to hurt someone. I wouldn't mind having him lose a few teeth in the playoffs!
Yeah, the Pens. Lawd.
I can't recall who you're talking about. I didn't see that Pens/Flyers game. I can tell you that it seems to get a lil chippy when we do meet. I wouldn't mind bringing you a little agony myself Stout. Maybe we'll have to do a lil somethin' somethin' if it gets to that!

I'd love nothing more than to meet the Flyers in the playoffs. I figure we'll win, but I know a few Flyers fans (you included) so it would be a fun series.
By-the-by, I was hoping to make it out for the draft again, but I won't be able to. I should have a new job shortly with the state, and I will do 2 weeks of training in the Harrisburg area (I'm out West). If I was in training, I would have been able to make it, but I won't be hired until probably mid-May. Oh well.

Two Game 7s tomorrow! I sure hope the Caps can complete the comeback against the Flyers, what a fun team to watch. San Jose and Calgary should be another great one as well.

Nah, I want the Cryers in there...I want to personally eliminate them, via the Pens! Of course, I don't much like Ovechkin either, so it would be fun to put them out. I know it all depends on the matchups, so I know we wouldn't get the Cryers next round anyway, but perhaps in the conference finals.
