JJFIVEOH Posted April 1, 2016 Report Share Posted April 1, 2016 6 pts, my bad. Looked at the GP, not our pts. Still, could be 3 points, depending on who we lost those shootouts to Wanna try again? :lol: Seriously, I get your point though. The skills competition has hindered this team terribly all year. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The skills competition has hindered this team terribly all year. ;) I'm so fried right now, but I think I have it. :lol: At 75pts, 4(2) = 8 pts, 75+8 => 83pts, Flyers have the last spot at 89pts.

sodbuster Posted April 2, 2016 Report Share Posted April 2, 2016 Keith got 6 games, which cuts one game into the playoffs. I think that's a pretty reasonable suspension. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrueBlueGED Posted April 2, 2016 Report Share Posted April 2, 2016 James Mirtle @mirtle 24m24 minutes ago Duncan Keith suspended six games. Will miss first game of playoffs. The reaction to this is pretty amazing so far. The NHL has set the bar for punishment so low that an attempted decapitation with a stick getting 1 game of a 7 game series is earning the DoPS a bunch pats on the back for being harsher than expected. Seriously, the Hawks have clinched a playoff spot, so the 5 regular season games is just a nice resting period for Keith before he plays 30 minutes a night.

The first five games amounts to what you mentioned, a nice rest up for the playoffs. It feels like they basically just tacked on a single playoff game as if to pretend like they were giving him a worthy suspension. Everyone knows that Keith deserves a larger suspension for what amounts to an attack on the ice. And this is for a guy who performed many questionable acts in the past.

WildCard Posted April 2, 2016 Report Share Posted April 2, 2016 (edited) Gotta love how, with a week left and playoffs on the line, the NHL has made a full slate of interleague play.

LTS Posted April 2, 2016 Report Share Posted April 2, 2016 BOOOOM! That was was huge and you can even hear Wilson's skates beginning to grab the ice... just a great opportunistic hit.

Eleven Posted April 2, 2016 Report Share Posted April 2, 2016 Hey.. for those who might know. Is there a reason the NHLPA could not be in charge of decided suspensions, etc? let's talk about the Keith incident.. it's an incident between two members of the NHLPA union. Shouldn't the union be in charge of disciplining their own? I dunno.. it's an interesting thought exercise I guess.. (at least for me) The league needs to do it to try to convince the public courts that it is doing all it can to ensure safety. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huckleberry Posted April 2, 2016 Report Share Posted April 2, 2016 The league needs to do it to try to convince the public courts that it is doing all it can to ensure safety. I'm a bit confused though, sometimes I think how much can you blame the league, and how much of the onus is on the players on the ice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eleven Posted April 2, 2016 Report Share Posted April 2, 2016 I'm a bit confused though, sometimes I think how much can you blame the league, and how much of the onus is on the players on the ice. I'm in total agreement. But they're not going to sue each other unless it's the extremely rare Steve Moore type of incident. I think my career has jaded me.

JJFIVEOH Posted April 2, 2016 Report Share Posted April 2, 2016 (edited) Fleury out indefinitely with a concussion, his second of the season. I shake my head every year at teams that blow big $$ on goaltenders with unknowns backing them up. Anaheim has been going with split duty, many don't. How is Dallas gonna make out with Crawford? Rinne in Nashville? How did Montreal make out after setting a league record with consecutive regulation wins? Do Blackhawks fans really think there's another Cinderella story in Darling? Don't count on it. As much as Fleury sucks most years in the playoffs, they don't have a Vokoun type backup to do any better. Matt Murray? Who?

Beer Posted April 2, 2016 Report Share Posted April 2, 2016 crushing hityou can hear his team mate screeming "look out" That was a massive hit. I think Z took a short nap there on the ice. I hope he's ok. The Capitals are a team with a purpose. I think I will be pulling for them with the Sabres out of the playoffs. I'd like to see Ovi lift the Cup.
