2019-2020 NHL Season Thread Hockey • Page 334

Watching NHL playoffs while working is one of the best (and only) good things to come out of Covid.

 

Sullivan to return as Penguins coach; three assistants out

 

Getting rid of Gonchar is strictly to send a message to Malkin. Good move IMO.

 

Some things will just never make sense

 

What why? Malkin was great last season

 

Of course it goes to OT hahahaha

 

Hope this one doesn't go multiple OT's lol

 

Haven’t been able to watch, hows the game been

 

Ya gradually going towards 3 on 3 would be perfect.

 

Soft call on Skjei

But also fuck him so please score

 

Clear slash no call but they call that bullshit

 

Refs suck this game what else is new

and 2OT here we come

 

Man, they are going to have to sort this out differently. Having games in one building is not doing them any favors.

 

Well, at least we didn't lose in the 5th OT...

 

what the hell was that angle Mrazek

 

Love Malkin but I think it's just more of sending a message to the entire team. Gonchar was only there as he was Malkin's buddy and they train together. I don't think it has to do with stats, it's more of a "take this shit seriously" thing. Just my opinion but that's how I read it.

 

Can't wait for them to play again... tomorrow. :)

 

Isles had two shots in the first? Woof

 

Literally One of two things that have been positive about transitioning to a work-from-home role. Unlimited access to sports and other media, and a new desk chair that smells like a new car and has a massager in the lumbar support.

 

Yikes caps

 

Just make the correct calls and you wont be called out like this

 

The call on the ice was correct. Mrazek playing the puck nullified any hand pass/high stick. Just because he had possession of the puck doesn't mean he had it absolutely secured, or that the whistle should have blown. Hockey players are taught from day one to play until the whistle, especially when a puck is loose in the crease. The Bruins did just that and ended up with a goal.

I get Brind'Amour is frustrated, because it's such a strange sequence of events, but that's the game.

 

I get that the hand pass was nullified, but in what league are you allowed to jab the puck out of the goalie’s glove when he clearly has it covered to ice the puck? Lol

 

Apparently the NHL. Go B’s lmao.

 

You can dig at the goalie until the whistle blows, as long as you don't slash or anything like that. Hence why you always see players trying to pry the puck loose under equipment. In this instance, Mrazek tried to cover the puck but obviously didn't have a good grasp on it if it came out literally less than a second after he made the attempt to secure it.
