I disagree with the charging call. He did not charge him at all. Watch Z gliding for several feet before the hit.
I agree, he did launch into the check.
Shanahan is basically admitting that the result of the hit had a factor in his ruling.
And so you see, I have come to doubt All that I once held as true I stand alone without beliefs The only truth I know is you.

A star player isn't getting 4 games and just like in the playoffs, it should be the action and not the result of the action that determines the suspension.
Alright, alright, alright!

Flyers 2012 first round pick Scott Laughton, who opened the NHL season with the big club and played five games before returning to the OHL's Oshawa Generals, has played with sky-high confidence ever since returning to the Ontario League. Last night, he racked up three assists in Oshawa's 4-2 win over Kingston. For the OHL season, the shutdown defensive center has posted 54 points (22 goals, 32 assists) in 46 games, to go along with a plus-22 rating.
Nick Cousins is still serving a four-game suspension for a checking from behind incident. He is eligible to return to the lineup on March 7. The controversial center has dropped to a tie for second in the league scoring race with 98 points (26 goals, 72 assists in 58 games).
Cant wait to see this guy rip someone's head off
Peterborough Petes' forward Derek Mathers is widely regarded as the toughest fighter in the OHL. Last night against Sault Ste. Marie, he had a fight and an instigator penalty. With a partial crackdown on fighting this season, Mathers has had to pick his spots for fighting a little more carefully. He has 125 penalty minutes this season in 63 games, down from 177 in 62 games a year ago.
This is a tough week of action with us playing the ranagers, Pens and also boston.
still waiting for Ilya to stop giving up bad rebounds.
The bigger question ... when will the flyers actually get themselves a real good goalie? Hearing there's a possibly that Vancouver might trade Schneider ...

there is no way Vancouver will trade Schneider unless they lost all there senses.
Ilya is still a good goalie but makes simple mistakes but he is playing better this year.

yeah, he's been pretty solid. I don't think you can fairly criticize the guy. He's night and day from last year's bryzaster

Don't count on that ... Schneider will bring a lot more back to Vancouver than Lu will, and it's obvious no team is willing to part with much for Lu ... and Vancouver needs to recognize that the opening for them to win a cup is closing and closing fast ... it still makes me laugh at how many people blame Lu for the Canucks failure to win a cup ... Lu got them to game 7 of the finals, yes he had some shaky games in the finals but he still back stopped them top game 7. I still think the Sedin twins are more the reason for Vancouver struggles ...

Why does everyone say they are .500. They have 10 wins and 11 losses.
The standings that I am looking at has them at 11-11-1.
yup....11-11-1
Point is the same. 11 wins and 12 losses is BELOW .500.

Cant wait until Cousins makes the jump to the NHL. He has some legal issues to deal with first.
He may turn out to be a good, gritty 3rd line forward with solid scoring ability and a great agitator.
High Ceiling is a second line player.

what was up with the stupid beam that kept coming into camera view as the play went into the offensive zones (on flyers comcast broadcast)? that was terrible.
still surprised more guys don't wear visors. that was a scary play.
It's all on the defense with this team. Once Grossmann left we were severely undermanned. On Callahan's 2nd goal near the end of the 1st, on the radio someone said that Bryz said his skate wasn't against the post so he couldn't push off and lead to the restricted poke check we saw. BS. He's got to poke that puck out of there. That was awful and he is awful with his stickwork.
Alright, alright, alright!

At what point does Laviolette get put under the gun?
Continuously off to poor starts...
Two goals were a direct result of bad line changes.
Can no longer seem to beat the Rangers after owning them for several years in a row.
Hip flexor injury for Grossmann
I think it would be dumb to get rid of laviolette. Young team, shitty defense, weird season, lot of injuries. Just throw this year out and improve the roster in the offseason (keep in mind that they got shut out last offseason with FAs).
people need to be patient with this team. they have a quality young core group...roster isn't a finished product at this point.

If they fail to make the playoffs, I think they will start fresh next year with a new coach to lead these young guys.
Many of the vets will be gone. They need a new system. The guys Holmgren keeps getting do not fit into Lavioletts system of play.

I don't think it has much to do with the style of play. some of the vets they have brought in just aren't good...fedotenko, knuble, foster, gervais, etc
briere had a nice run here (esp in playoffs). he's done though. I don't think he has won a battle along the boards all season. They gotta take advantage of the amnesty clause and get rid of him and his contract (including his no trade clause) while they can.

When people say crap like this I just shake my head. Niemi just won a cup a few years ago. JS gigure. etc
I'm not saying that bryz is great or anything. Plenty of goalies with less talent have won cups.
The flyers problem is their defense. patrick roy in his prime wouldn't win a cup with this group of dmen
if you say so ...
