Whining

Gamesmanship. Too much at stake for it to get any nastier than last night. Noone wants to be the guy in the box when the game winning goal is scored.

 

I really think the fans get more out of this sort of thing than the players do.

"They're really doing a lot of whining. I didn't hear any whining when they had 10 power plays in Philly and I didn't hear any whining when the power plays in the first game were lopsided," Ruff said. "But all of a sudden, there's all this whining about, we're getting away with murder?"

 

Sounds like what everyone here has been saying since game 1. Way to go, Ruff.

I love how Richard's says we're getting away with murder and how they have done a great job of "walking away from their [the sabres] B.S.". Yet never mentions the spear to Gerbe's sac by Timonen. That's busch league. I really think he's just crying so the officials will go lightly on them the rest of the series. If they can't handle the scrums that playoffs entail then why are they suiting up every night? Go home, go golf.

Or how about the sabre who was crosschecked into the crossbar face first.

Yeah, seriously... I think that was MAG if I'm remembering correctly.

It was definitely Butler. Ouch! :cry:

A play like that when the league is trying to get serious with hits to the head. I would consider that a hit to the head or intent to injure but no call. Heck, interference?

Wasn't it Butler? Idk it has happened each game it seems like.

Hmmm ... I would actually bet money that it was MAG.

They did make the call when MAG was put face first into the net.

I'll take that bet. It was Van Rymsdyke that crosschecked Butler in the back then he went chin first into the crossbar.

Yeah, I can perfectly picture MAG looking up at the ref like "what was that?!" He hit the post on the goaltender's left more than the crossbar. Wasn't there a penalty called? I've looked back through the game recaps and haven't found a penalty (crosschecking or interference) drawn by Butler or Gragnani.

We got a 5 on 3 out of Grags face plant into the post.

I'll bet you two are talking about different plays.

That's because it happened to both of them in different games.

The play I was talking about our guy hit his face on the crossbar and his head raked back as he went under like a drunk limbo dancer. Could have been very ugly

"They're hard on the right guys," Flyers forward Daniel Carcillo said after Game Four. "They haven't said boo to some of the other guys who they know will fight back."

 

So since everybody saw them hard on Carcillo several times, does that mean he's calling himself one of the easy targets? :rolleyes:
