Ghost of Dwight Drane Posted April 7, 2011 Report Posted April 7, 2011 Most of the time I think the suspensions are too light. That sounds too heavy to me. That's why I warn...when you call for a witch hunt, this is what happens. I agree with Torres that the league needs to figure out where it wants to be in a few years. Defunct is an option slowly gaining momentum.

Except the league has shown no interest in participating in that witch hunt. They constantly suspend on the low end and then all of a sudden this one happens.
Taro T Posted April 7, 2011 Report Posted April 7, 2011 Except the league has shown no interest in participating in that witch hunt. They constantly suspend on the low end and then all of a sudden this one happens. I don't recall the On the Fly crew calling out for suspensions for Chara and Bertuzzi. The On the Fly broadcast that night was all over suspending Torres. I wonder if those guys had already gotten an inclination from the league office that the suspension was coming. Again, watching the hit on replay, I didn't think it should be a suspension. Watching it at full speed for the 1st time, I thought it looked bad and understood why the ref called it the way he did. I didn't think that the league would throw the book at him after they could see the hit from multiple angles, etc. I didn't think that hit, nor Bertuzzi's hit, should have garnered a suspension though I understood why both got the in game penalties that they received - the hits 'looked bad' in real time.
Buffalo Wings Posted April 8, 2011 Report Posted April 8, 2011 I agree with everything you said except it's 3 teams fighting for two spots. The Rags should be scared. I heard in the game last night that the Canes have the tie breaker over them. Their magic number is 3, not 1. Although I'd rather be playing Atlanta and NJ then Philly and columbus. Correct - my bad.
Corp000085 Posted April 8, 2011 Report Posted April 8, 2011 2 goals in 15 seconds Atlanta 2 - Rangers 0 Awesome. Now, if Atlanta goes up by 3, we all should start preparing for 8th place.
X. Benedict Posted April 8, 2011 Report Posted April 8, 2011 Awesome. Now, if Atlanta goes up by 3, we all should start preparing for 8th place. I hate when the Rangers look dead in the water too. :lol:
wjag Posted April 8, 2011 Report Posted April 8, 2011 Montreal 1 - Ottawa 0; Habs like 6th, want them Bruins.
tom webster Posted April 8, 2011 Report Posted April 8, 2011 The irony of Friday is that by beating Philly we will most assuredly secure 7th place for the Sabres and unfortunately 2nd for Pittsburgh which is the one team I don't want to face.

No kidding. Not that I think Pittsburgh is the best team, I just think that is the worst match-up for Buffalo.
Buffalo Wings Posted April 8, 2011 Report Posted April 8, 2011 Montreal 1 - Ottawa 0; Habs like 6th, want them Bruins. They want at least 4 shots at Chara.
tom webster Posted April 8, 2011 Report Posted April 8, 2011 No kidding. Not that I think Pittsburgh is the best team, I just think that is the worst match-up for Buffalo. My sentiments exactly.

I've been worrying about this for about two weeks now. No kidding. Not that I think Pittsburgh is the best team, I just think that is the worst match-up for Buffalo. Pittsburgh just plays way too physical for Buffalo My sentiments exactly. They won't be blow outs, but I was really hoping someone else would get Pit. My preference in order would be Philly, Bruins, Washington, Pit.
wjag Posted April 8, 2011 Report Posted April 8, 2011 Awesome. Now, if Atlanta goes up by 3, we all should start preparing for 8th place. Got your wish. 3-0 Atlanta

BeachedNLA Posted April 8, 2011 Report Posted April 8, 2011 & Ottawa scores, Spezza... It's 1-1 Habs / Sens.
DR HOLLIDAY Posted April 8, 2011 Report Posted April 8, 2011 & Ottawa scores, Spezza... It's 1-1 Habs / Sens. Been watching this game, Habs couldn't score on a 5minute power play right after Ottawa scored.
wjag Posted April 8, 2011 Report Posted April 8, 2011 Been watching this game, Habs couldn't score on a 5minute power play right after Ottawa scored. Good.. :worthy:
X. Benedict Posted April 8, 2011 Report Posted April 8, 2011 Rangers have Devils Sat.....baring a huge last minute comeback...they no longer control their fate.
