korab rules Posted October 17, 2011 Report Posted October 17, 2011 Wait, does this mean the sky isn't falling anymore?
X. Benedict Posted October 17, 2011 Report Posted October 17, 2011 Props to Kassian for going toe to toe against veteran fighter Garrett Exelby tho. It was Exelby? No kidding.
inkman Posted October 17, 2011 Report Posted October 17, 2011 Wait, does this mean the sky isn't falling anymore? Yeah maybe that first game was an abberation.
inkman Posted October 17, 2011 Report Posted October 17, 2011 It was Exelby? No kidding. I missed that in all my beeriness. The result is never as important as the intention. Good to see Zack get into something he knew he might not get the best result of.
Weave Posted October 17, 2011 Report Posted October 17, 2011 Exelby is a tough dude. Good learning experience for Kass.
Andrew Amerk Posted October 17, 2011 Report Posted October 17, 2011 Much better performance by the boys tonight. Very fun game. 65 PIM in the 3rd. Kassian now on a 4 game points streak.
shrader Posted October 17, 2011 Report Posted October 17, 2011 Exelby is a tough dude. Good learning experience for Kass. You pretty much have to be after your parents name you Garnet.
nobody Posted October 17, 2011 Report Posted October 17, 2011 Foligno & Kassian both get in scraps on the next shift Foligno gets the better of his opponent. Kassian not so much. Both get tossed Foligno for boarding, Kassian for 2nd altercation. hopefully no suspensions - wouldn't want to start seeing the guys being suspended so early in the season.
Weave Posted October 17, 2011 Report Posted October 17, 2011 Looks like Kassian learned that an experienced fighter is going to try to keep him off balance. Doesn't look like either Exelby or Kass got in any shots of substance. Foligno was starting to tee off on his opponent before the camera went to Kassian-Exelby. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JwHSVQOoQbU I'm betting Tropp has a suspension in his near future. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R0nYO9MiwD0&feature=related
That Aud Smell Posted October 17, 2011 Report Posted October 17, 2011 I'm betting Tropp has a suspension in his near future. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R0nYO9MiwD0&feature=related chris neil-esque. and not in a good way. also, i want to get the slowed squeaky-voiced audio on a loop - "i. can't. see it...? oh, right dare, yeah."

God I hope not. The guy got caught puck watching. He was slowing, looked like he was going to curl to the near boards, then cuts left like he is going to cross in front of the net a just as tropp is trying to curl up towards the near boards to get involved in the breakout. The guy tropp hit had no idea tropp was there, and tropp thought he was going a different direction - I don't see any intent by tropp to hit the guy - why would he - it would be dumb as hell. The puck is nowhere near him, its blind side and from behind.

He sure as hell doesn't lead with the elbow.

Thanks for posting those. Looked like Marcus was handling himself well. :pirate: Poor work by the linesman on the Kassian-Exelby fight. That bump could have cost Kassian a broken orbital. Tropp.....well....that was nasty. :pirate: (<= need an uncle sam to replace the pirate)

He sure as hell doesn't lead with the elbow. You can see tropp start to take evasive action himself, but he is too close to avoid contact at that point. The thing that makes it look bad is Tropp kind of throws his arm out at the end - not sure why - whether he was trying to swing his arm up over the guys head to avoid hitting him, just trying to push him away or something else.

It's tough to tell from the video, but it seemed like it was post-contact to me. That's nothing more than a reflex. The only thing that even makes that whole thing look like a penalty is that one guy stays on his feet and the other doesn't.
