NHL 15-16 Regular Season Thread: F I R E _ T H E R R I E N

yea, though it was prolly not worthy of an ejection. He shouldn't have finished the hit but Campbell started to turn in front of him, saw him and turned his back to him instead, at the last moment and went hard into the boards, I think he was ejected cause there was blood but it could be because he's Tom Wilson, idk. I didn't care to bitch cause we played like trash and it wasn't the smartest hit.

"clean player" Tom Wilson

Campbell didn't turn at the last second. Campbell's numbers are all that seen from Wilson's POV the entire 8-10 strides he took over to him and Campbell's front logo crest was never not facing the boards.

[Sepukku]

You tell me where in the GIF sequence you can see any part of the front half of Campbell's jersey

Its nothing but numbers. Yes Campbell looks over his shoulder for a quarter second but he didnt rotate his whole body to do it. He was still facing the boards when he did his lookback.

[Judai]

Campbell clearly turns his head, as he starts to turn up ice, sees Wilson and instead turns back to the boards. Yes, it all happens in like 1s but you can see him decide to keep his back to Wilson instead of turn up ice. That very first frame is him turning up ice, seeing Wilson and saying, nope, here's my back. Also, if he didn't shift his hips in that last frame, Wilson gets more side then back.

Like I said, not a good hit but not an ejection, unless a little blood is auto eject.

So players are required to make themselves available to be hit? DOPS across multiple dept heads has repeatedly said the onus is on the hitter to make a safe hit

[Brill Weave]

Oh yeah,

Don't forget a racist comment about Subban.

[Richybear]

Screwed either way tonight.
We Win: BK whines more about AV
We Lose: It's a barrage of how the Rangers were outplayed for 99.999999999% of the game and pulled one out for ol' Slatsy


That being said, I hope Nash gets Gryba'd

[BadKarma]

Does this mean you hope Nash becomes a fringe NHLer who wouldnt have a roster spot on an actual hockey team?

[BadKarma]

Oh if you wonder why I hate AV heres a few reasons: Tanner Glass. Poor zone deployments up until this past week.

Lee Stempniak was traded to accommodate Tanner Glass.

Tanner Glass was called up from Hartford over Jayson Megna, Brian Gibbons, Ryan Borque. Ya know actual hockey players.

TODAY, Alain Vigneault had to struggle with thought of benching Kevin Hayes (ya know, whos an actual good player) and keeping Glass in the lineup. Instead he scratched Viktor Stalberg (actual hockey player) instead of Tanner Glass (cardboard Orpik) so Emerson Etem could get a game in.

He is not a good coach, and I honestly would like to see him get fired. If Lundqvist gets hurt again, this team is absolutely fucked.

[Richybear]

So... I should return the Glass jersey I got you for a BG Secret Santa event I just made up on the spot?

That or you give it to me and I burn it in a youtube video while doing a dance naked around the fire pit with the blood of small animals smeared upon my form.

All I can think about are the idiots with the Lebron jerseys several years ago.
They're mostly idiots because lolbasketball though.


But best of luck to ya tonight. There's a ceremony before the game to honour Sather with a banner raising etc. I really hope instead of it being like NAME and then underneath it, it's usually a jersey #, that it's SATHER with a cigar underneath it.

[NynJa]

Edmonton hasnt raised a banner in so long, theyre raising one in Sathers honor

Lol

[Richybear]

Yes, because you've had shit all to cheer about since '93 yourself

[NynJa]

<-- 110 point season bitch

[Richybear]

I forgot they make rings for those - or do they just have a Shark on them saying "Maybe next year, guys."?

I'll let Melena answer that one
Or maybe one of the resident Nucks fans can

[Obsidian]

So how was that goal in Nashville last night not goaltender interference? They pitchforked Rinne into the net to knock the puck loose...

[BadKarma]

Nynja at least Edmonton has a conference championship banner to raise

It's called media profit - more money for NHL if Kane continues his streak
