Claude Balls Posted February 29, 2012 Report Posted February 29, 2012 Edwards and Brickley must be the two biggest jag off announcers in the NHL. Edwards loses his mind after Turris hits Corvo saying Turris left his feet. He needs to get some glasses because Turris' right skate never leaves the ice until after contact with Corvo. Bet he had no problem with the Lucic hit on Miller that got no suspension, but he thinks Turris should be suspended for eons. And as much as I can't stand Neil, his hit on Boychuk was a thing of beauty. Apparently Chara can slam a guy into the stanchion fracturing his neck, but when someone cleanly pastes his own guy in open ice, that's wrong. I applaud Neil for standing up and fighting Chara later on in the game and taking Chara to the ice where he had a clean shot at the goon but held back as Zdeno was flinching like a little female dog trying to block his face. The Bruins and their announcers don't like their own style of play to be played against them. And as for Turris.....no suspension! Karma is a biznitch huh Edwards? http://youtu.be/cEpf5uVCu20 http://youtu.be/gaY4UvMgvzg
... Posted February 29, 2012 Report Posted February 29, 2012 HAHA! Awesome, can't believe I cheered for Neil! AHAhahahah!
darksabre Posted February 29, 2012 Report Posted February 29, 2012 The Neil hit was close, but the Turris hit was clearly to the head of Corvo.
... Posted February 29, 2012 Report Posted February 29, 2012 The Neil hit was close, but the Turris hit was clearly to the head of Corvo. Neil hit looked clean. Turris hit - illegal. Boston likes to play a physical game, though, so... B-)
Guest Posted February 29, 2012 Report Posted February 29, 2012 The Neil hit was close, but the Turris hit was clearly to the head of Corvo. Yes Turris hit him in the head, but my point is that Edwards says Turris should be suspended because he left his feet, which he clearly didn't. If there was a suspension, it would have been for a hit to the head. These guys are complete morons, and that's not even mentioning Edwards saying how Turris came from so far away to hit him. He wasn't that far behind him and Corvo had just gotten rid of the puck not even a second before he got hit.
K-9 Posted February 29, 2012 Report Posted February 29, 2012 The absolute best part about those hits in that game is that Boston had little answer immediately and even less of an answer last night. Live by the goon, die by the goon. GO SABRES!!!
Guest Posted February 29, 2012 Report Posted February 29, 2012 Oops, I'm sorry. Turris came from a "ridiculous distance" to make that hit :doh:
wonderbread Posted February 29, 2012 Report Posted February 29, 2012 Live by the sword die by the sword.
Weave Posted February 29, 2012 Report Posted February 29, 2012 And that, my friends, is what is missing from Buffalo.
Who Else? Posted February 29, 2012 Report Posted February 29, 2012 I love the Neil hit. That is a perfect hard hit. Its nice to seen him go after another big player. If players are getting suspended and fined over bad hits, maybe Neil should get a get out of jail free card. Oh wait he pre-emptively used it against Drury. Man I hate that guy.
Bmwolf21 Posted February 29, 2012 Report Posted February 29, 2012 And that, my friends, is what is missing from Buffalo. Douchebag announcers?
... Posted March 1, 2012 Report Posted March 1, 2012 Douchebag announcers? I would almost prefer that to the senile and cranky A team and unlistenable B team.
Guest Posted March 1, 2012 Report Posted March 1, 2012 I would almost prefer that to the senile and cranky A team and unlistenable B team. Sylvester is absolutely horrible to listen to. I know the Rangers have a Gaborik on the team, but I never knew they had a Gabarack.
bunomatic Posted March 1, 2012 Report Posted March 1, 2012 Its incredible to hear the Bawston guys whine about rough play. It was also great to see Neil make Chara his Biatch. Even if it was for just a little while.
Bmwolf21 Posted March 1, 2012 Report Posted March 1, 2012 I would almost prefer that to the senile and cranky A team and unlistenable B team. Drop Neale and the Cranky/Senile A team is suddenly a whole lot better.
Captainkirk001 Posted March 1, 2012 Report Posted March 1, 2012 I still cant believe that Ottawa is within one point of Boston...the Boston fans are going to be crying in their chowda!!!
TheMatrix31 Posted March 1, 2012 Report Posted March 1, 2012 You hear that, Boston announcers? It's the world's smallest violin.
drnkirishone Posted March 1, 2012 Report Posted March 1, 2012 You hear that, Boston announcers? It's the world's smallest violin. Is it a Gerbe model?
Drunkard Posted March 1, 2012 Report Posted March 1, 2012 I still hate Neil and Ottawa in general but that was great to watch given how much I absolutely despise Boston. The Turris hit was to the head but he didn't leave his feet and the Neil hit was clean in my opinion.
Kristian Posted March 1, 2012 Report Posted March 1, 2012 Good to see Boychuk on his ass, especially since the hit looked clean to me.
That Aud Smell Posted March 1, 2012 Report Posted March 1, 2012 i got no beef with the boston announcers -- they're unabashed homers. then again, so is RJ. C'mon - you know the call "leopold recovers in the corner and plays it up to ennis, and HERE COMES [opposing player] AND HE JUST LEVELS LEOPOLD FROM BEHIND WITH A HIT TO THE HEAD ... AND NNNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOO PENALTY ON THE PLAY-- OH, BROTHER!" neil hit was a perfect hockey hit. no way to take that out of the game as far as i can see. the turris hit looked wrong to me. turris comes from behind/lateral, and, at the very last second, gets a north/south line of contact, and it looks like the head is the principal point of contact.
