BuffaloFansR_Crazy Posted February 13, 2011 Report Posted February 13, 2011 Anyone else watching the Bruins vs Wings game on NBC? At intermission Pierre and Milbury basically apologized on behave of the NHL for the Montreal vs Boston and Pittsburgh vs New York Islanders games. If you didn't see them, look them up. Pierre suggested that the NHL reduce the number of players on the bench from 18 down to 17 so there are less "enforcers." All I can say is they were the best games I've seen all year. Feel free to call NBC (good luck) at 818-777-1000.

BuffaloFansR_Crazy Posted February 13, 2011 Author Report Posted February 13, 2011 And tell them what? You agree or disagree with what they said.
deluca67 Posted February 13, 2011 Report Posted February 13, 2011 You agree or disagree with what they said. What if I am indifferent to the comments? Should I still call?
dumb_dumb88 Posted February 13, 2011 Report Posted February 13, 2011 What if I am indifferent to the comments? Should I still call? Yes you can. Call and tell them to stop wasting air time speaking on it :blink:
deluca67 Posted February 13, 2011 Report Posted February 13, 2011 Yes you can. Call and tell them to stop wasting air time speaking on it :blink: I would hate to get anyone in trouble. I don't think I am going to call.
Stoner Posted February 13, 2011 Report Posted February 13, 2011 I'm not calling. I have to make some phone sex calls before the game. Listen, that game set hockey back 35 years. If it's your thing, fine, but you might be better off spending your time with UFC or professional wrestling. Hockey, eventually, is going to move on from this nonsense.

I'm assuming you are talking about the Pens NYI game?

We don't agree often, but we're on the same page here. If you eliminate fighting from the game, do cheap-shots go up? I think McGuire was right about one thing - the Pitt-Isles game (I didn't see a lot of the Montreal-Boston fracas) was not about fighting in hockey, it was about vengeance and the Isles, as an organization, wanting to extract their pound of flesh.
BuffaloFansR_Crazy Posted February 13, 2011 Author Report Posted February 13, 2011 What if I am indifferent to the comments? Should I still call? You are missing the point. They were grouping two different games with two different situations into one.

Thank god for hands free devices.

The Montreal Boston game certainty didn't. That was a great game and my whole point. Pens vs Islander game may have reminded you of the 80s goons day. I have never seen more coaches than players on the bench before. NYI brought Haley up just for that. Makes me wonder what they are going to do today.

inkman Posted February 13, 2011 Report Posted February 13, 2011 I'm not calling. I have to make some phone sex calls before the game. Someone needs to explain this phone sex to me. No, not what it is but rather why would anyone pay for this? Someone pretends to have sex with you on the phone or they fondle themselves (supposedly) while you do the same and she talks about her parts and you parts. My girls uncle calls these lines all the time, I think thus makes him certifiable. For what they charge couldn't you pay for actual sex from a prostitute?

He has to pay for his Center Ice somehow.

And how does Pitt get nothing from that game????

Sabre Dance Posted February 14, 2011 Report Posted February 14, 2011 If you eliminate fighting from the game, do cheap-shots go up? Not if the league enforces the rules AND hands out consistent (and meaningful) supplementary discipline. Fighting has been removed from hockey at other levels (such as the NCAA) and I've seen some pretty rough college contests. I'm not sure why hockey feels the need to keep fighting as "part of the game" (other than Milbury's correct observation that fans like it). Look, in the NFL, a defensive back can come across the field and lay a crushing hit on a receiver, but when the play is over they both hop up, pat each other on the hiney and go back to the huddle. Why don't they tear off their helmets and go toe to toe? Because hitting is part of the game and they both realize that AND fighting in the NFL gets you suspended. You can extend this to MLB and the NBA - a catcher gets run over by a base runner, a guard gets bowled over by a forward crashing the glass. These guys get hit hard, just like NHL players. Once in a great while, they may start a shoving match, but they very rarely throw a punch. So, I ask again....why (other than the fact that we like it) is fighting still in pro hockey? (By the way, I don't mind a good toe-to-toe battle once in a while, but the brawling that went on the other day between the Islanders and the Penguins....nope. I saw enough of that with the Flyers in the '70s.)
