I don't have too many problems with the Penguins play - the cross check to the throat bothered me a lot. The other stuff is just silly, and I see it mostly as their self destructing, which is only helping us. I'm glad the Flyers have maintained their composure while still defending themselves so far.
Yeah, the Flyers are the stereotypical goons of the league, we know. That has nothing to do with this team.

Washington forward Nicklas Backstrom faces a hearing with the Department of Player Safety on Tuesday afternoon for the match penalty he received after cross-checking Boston's Rich Peverley in the waning seconds of the Bruins' 4-3 Game 4 victory Monday night at Verizon Center.
Backstrom is suspended for Game 4 pending a review of the incident by the League's Department of Player Safety.
Shanahan suspends Shaw 3 games....what a fucking joke this guy is.
That was the hit on the PHX Goalie ?
I wouldn't call it a hit as much as I would say contact with the goalie. Giving him a five min major and game misconduct was enough. If Shea weber can deliberately try and smash a guys head into the glass and only get a $2500 fine this should've been nothing...what a jackass shanahan is

Exactly. It's just so inconsistent and makes zero sense. I don't even know what else to say about it anymore. It's a fucking embarassment to the NHL.

Yikes
yeah it was so bad the goalie stayed in the game
From the officiating in each game to Shanahan its been a horrible time for the league right now

All I can say is that he made zero attempt to avoid contact.
shanahan is a joke ... 1 game max ... but he's not a "star" player so therefore ... he's gonna try and make up for his previously shitty rulings by over-penalizing this guy ...

haha, true. shaw got 1 game for himself, a game for weber, and a game for neal (who's gonna get off).
I agree with the consensus, the rulings have been a joke. The playoffs have been incredible though.

Life long Blackhawk fan. I agree, 3 games? There was no intention.
I`ve been around hockey all my life - Dad was drafted by Detoit (played some games), spent most time in minors, playing, then as playing coach (oldtime hockey), then straight coaching. The game changes. He says goaltenders should tend goal, the crease is there for a reason. Now goalies want to come out and play the puck, some like Smith are throwing head fakes. As soon as they do this they are no longer goalies but acting as a player and should be treated as such, this is a contact sport - keep your head up!

Just saw that highlight of Patrick Roy skating the puck to the red line. So if goalies want to try this they get a free pass? I know it`s a dumb thing todo but the question still remains.
When a puck is dumped in and the goalie plays it behind the net what's the guy supposed to do? What he did wasn't intentional and there wasn't room to do much. Smith gets the oscar for best dramatic performance
All I can say is that he made zero attempt to avoid contact.
If you mean Shaw made zero attempt I disagree. It`s Smith following thru with his pass that takes his head into contact. Shaw doesn`t change his line, if Smith doesn`t turn into him there`s no contact.
I couldn't agree more...when the skill players are allowed to display thier skill the game can be a thing of beauty. I go back to last years game 7 Vancouver vs. Chicago...still one of the best games I've ever seen.
Please don't make me think about that game. :evil:
Here that! Had to get a new playstation controller after that - had to throw something.

No intention at all. It would be one thing if Shaw went in there and just laid out the goalie, but that wasn't the case. For Shaw to get 3 games and Weber to get a fine for what he did just boggles my fucking mind. This Shanahan thing better only last for 1 year....

I don't understand this suspension, and never will. You can't make and example of someone after the playoffs have started. There have been numerous far more severe hits this postseason without any games lost. You start changing the game when you are not consistent with your suspensions and fines. It has to be called the same, that's all I'm saying. Bullshit! Suspend Smith for terrible acting then also.

now how many games will this fucking scumbag Torres get? Hawks didn't even get a penalty out of it either.
if i were in charge, the rest of the playoffs...only way you'll get it to stop is make the penalty hurt...he didn't need to leave his feet...it would have been a solid hit if he hadn't jammed his shoulder into hossa
