2010-11 NHL Playoff Thread: HOUSE RULES: ENGAGED

[Callisto]

Wow Kings

[Selamis]

Damn that's a sweet goal right there.

In addition, they didn't actually have any players ejected - just several that received 10 minute misconducts (with a few getting them with less than 10 left in the game).

There is 0% chance the NHL chooses to diminish viewership and incur criticism with a forced forfeit, even if it is possible in the rules.

Meh, that might be the distinction here.

I guess I should have prefaced my original post on this with saying it was second hand info. He was relaying what the announcers on ESPN1000 were saying postgame. Sorry for nothing else solid here or for any misinformation.

Man I hate the Kings, but love watching the Sharks choke. What a dilemma.

This, no actual ejections. Also it doesn't matter in the playoffs, last year Burrows (I think, maybe Kesler, definitely one of the two though) got an end-of-game ejection that per the rule book should have been an automatic one-game suspension and the league didn't even glance at it.

Lest we look back also two years ago when Malkin got tossed with like 18 seconds left in the game trying to fite Zetterberg, which under normal circumstances would carry a one game suspension and went unpunished.

Was Simmonds, lol.

[Thoronas]

If San Jose chokes in the first round I wonder how many reporters are going to quote Kyle Wellwood's comments on the Canucks.

[Deader2818]

Not sure if ive ever seen a period end like that.

[Chips]

Not sure if ive ever seen a period end like that.

[Flarega]

The most surprising thing about this game is that Westgarth has a point.
