    Saint Patrick revived!

    http://blogs.edmontonjournal.com/201...-head-hunting/

    When the NHL stars come out at night, it’s not necessary to turn their lights out (knocking them on their keister is allowed, too) but Edmonton Oilers centre Taylor Hall has avoided two runs at his head since training camp started.

    The latest close-call came Tuesday night, when Jacob Trouba, the hugely impressive rookie Winnipeg Jets defenceman, barely missed connecting with Hall’s cranium in the third period of the 5-4 Oilers loss.

    Trouba, who played 10 minutes in the third (25 in all in his first NHL game), almost unloaded on Hall with either a shoulder or an elbow on a Hall rush.

    Hall ducked just in time, but if he hadn’t, we might be talking about concussion protocol, and Trouba quite likely would be hearing from Brendan Shanahan, the league’s head of player safety.

    “He (Trouba) had his elbow out. I don’t know why he’s doing that … I wasn’t expecting it,” said Hall.

    “I had my head up but you can’t always expect a guy will be coming at you with a flying blow.”

    In exhibition season, Vancouver’s Dale Weise also took a run at Hall’s noggin and got suspended for the rest of pre-season.

    Trouba, who was paired with Zach Bogosian throughout the Jets 5-4 rally, was tossed out there repeatedly by former Oilers and Jets assistant coach Charlie Huddy, who handles Winnipeg’s defence, He played half the third period and was on the ice in the last minute when Hall and the Oilers were pressing for the tying goal.

    The 19-year-old is a helluva player, but sorry, that was a head-hunting expedition on Hall.

    Again, two such incidents in the last 10 days on the Oilers centre, who blamed himself on Weise’s run, saying he wasn’t prepared.
    Dawwwww, poor Hall. A rookie in his first NHL game was definitely looking to head hunt one of the oppositions star player.

    And unfortunately the league does nothing unless something happens. If you avoid it, the offender gets nothing.
    Its pretty shitty protocol, and then "wreckless" but clearly acidental plays can get 4-5 games suspension.

    Roy was awesome; I'm glad I stayed up until the end of the game.

    And Perds open the season tonight against the Blues. Amped does not even begin to describe how I feel; boss is out of town, so I'm sitting in my office with a 4-day beard and my gold Josi jersey on. LET'S GO PERDS!

    Vancouver season opener tonight! Finally! Not expecting much from them, just hoping we show some glimmer of competitiveness and Torts new system doesnt break Kesler and the Sedins.

    I'm actually looking forward to that game; I wanna see Vancouver get their shit together. And I want to start laughing at all the idiots who picked SJ for the Cup this year.

    I think Kesler will thrive under Torts. I don't know about the sisters though. What I'm most interested in is Luongo's performance. Price looked pretty great on Tuesday, Crawford got pumped but still looked all right. Canada's Olympic goalie situation is a pretty interesting race.

    Ugh I can't wait to go to me and my fiance's first game of the year this Sunday.. too bad it's against the Flyers so it will be obnoxious as hell in Raleigh.
    Game number 2 comes next Sunday a day after getting married. 1PM game. I am scared of hangover hockey.

    NHL 14 is awesome but the big hit = immediate fight thing is the fucking worst.

    Anyway, Caps claimed Alexander Urbom from New Jersey, is this the heir apparent of ERSKINE SMASH!?!??!?

    Who the fuck is picking the Sharks for the cup? If anything this is our last legit shot at it since Thorton, Gutless and Boyle are all FA's at the end of the year.

    I have to go out to a friends birthday on Saturday night so I'll miss the game .

    Buffalo usually plays well against Pittsburgh (not counting Crosby) too.

    Would be interesting to see a Sharks vs Bruins final. I lived around San Jose for 15 years.

    No more East Coast vs. West Coast finals allowed, half the games I can barely get home from work in time to see and the other half I have to stay up until midnight to watch :/
