Rangers up 1-0. Looks like the rampage might hold off if They can win this series.

So Weber was fined, but Bitz gets 2 games. Hmm i know the Bitz hit was from behind, but isn't slamming someone's head in to the glass worthy of a suspension? I'd think so.. Although, this is the NHL :/

For all the emphasis on reducing blows to the head during the regular season, they hypocritically slap Weber on the wrist for slamming a guy's HEAD into the dasher. Zetterberg's helmet cracked in 3 places from it. Sure he wasn't hurt immediately after and he's in the lineup tonight, but what happens if concussion symptoms begin to show in a few days or a week later?

 

I want retribution from somewhere tonight, but not at the expense of going down 0-2 in the series. If Kronwall has a chance in the play to do his usual wrecking ball hit into Weber, go for it, but don't go out of the play seeking it.

I agree, The NHL says they want to get rid of hits to the head and stuff like that, but when it happens (Weber incident) they give him a fine of $2,500. Which to him is like a parking ticket.

 

Yes, if he must get retribution for the incident, it's wise to not let it effect his focus on the game. Because you just can't afford to go down 0-2 in a playoff series.

 

Side Note: Go Canucks, Flyers, Red Wings, Florida! (I think a Nucks vs Wings series would be very entertaining)

 

This Philly/Pitts series is really entertaining :o

Yay Red Wings tying the series up 1-1. That's why I don't mind not having home ice. So much pressure to win games 1 and 2 if you're the home team.

 

Also yay Flyers (hate Crosby/Pittsburgh) and yay Kings (underdogs)

I gotta say, Vancouver has A++ music selection during stoppages and breaks. So many sweet songs played on the organ lol.

Wouldn't it be crazy if all four higher seeds lost in the first round? Vancouver 0-2, St. Louis 0-1, well Phoenix is up 1-0, but Nashville tied 1-1

 

That would give the Wings home ice for the next 2 rounds lol.

I only saw a few seconds of highlights but damn tonight's Ottawa/Rangers game looked brutal. I saw one Sens player just wailing on a Ranger along the boards (Dubinsky?) then on Twitter I see Carl Hagelin (former U. of Michigan star who I've seen play the past 3 years) is going to have a hearing about a hit on Alfredsson.

This Wings/Predators series has been crap.

 

The dominant team has lost each game because of fluky bounces and breaks. Wings should have won games 1 and 3 and Predators should have won game 2.

 

Frustrating.

Vancouver's play thus far has been just... awful :/ i hope they can turn it around tonight in LA.

 

And yet again, the Philly/Pitts series is not disappointing in the entertainment category!

This is awesome. Pittsburgh's true colors as sniveling cowards are being exposed on national TV. Crosby isn't a leader, he's a whiny pansy.

 

I don't care if you're a Penguins fan, I hate them because of their attitude, Cindy, and their management.

 

Malkin is the only genuine star of that team and he deserves better.

 

Hockey purists have to be livid at the quality of play so far these playoffs lol.

 

Penguins/Flyers has been a glorified bar fight all series. Senators/Rangers had their TNT ignited last night. Weber incident. SJ/StL has had some rough moments.

 

Great job Shanahan and Bettman.

oh pens, u so silly

 

I didn't watch the game, but if that didn't break the record for most penalty minutes in a 1st period, I don't know what will

 

Vancouver v LA is also coming up... not optimistic for Vancouver, they would be better off starting schneider for this one, in addition to, you know, not failing

Sweet sassy molassy! Penguins got steam rolled by Philly, i don't see them coming back in the series. It's possible though, but still.

 

Schneider to start for Vancouver, this could spark them, they seem to play better in front of Schneids, but you just never know with the Canucks. I am going to be optimistic though, It'd be nice if we went all beast and won 4 games to win the series, but that probably won't happen. Just hoping for a solid effort tonight!

This just in! The NHL's tool when it comes to determining suspensions and fines!

Hagelin gets 3 games for his elbow to Alfredsson

Carkner gets 1 game for mercilessly pounding on Boyle

 

Can't wait to see what they come up with for all the Pens/Flyers craziness tomorrow. *rolls eyes*

Man I'm going to be so pissed if the Wings get eliminated after the Canucks do. Vancouver is the only team I feared facing. Everyone else I feel we can take.
