Jesus christ that is fucking hideous. He's gonna get 6+ games for that. And he does something like this when Detroit is already going downhill.

Bruins looky sexy as fuck.

man, he nearly hit Spurgeon in the eye, that shit could have been really fucking bad, buuuuut 1 game suspension from the NHL prolly.

Bruins shut out the Canadiens at home 4-0, and with Price in net?

He has an in-person hearing so he's basically guaranteed 5+.

Edit: Habs have 6 regulation wins in their last 24 games (I think, that stat might be out of date), pretty sure they've been playing below .500 since December.

Sounds pretty familiar.

Fuck Nyqueef

[Vaspinne]

For comparison's sake, Duncan Keith got 6 regular season games +1 playoff game for this high stick last season



I could see Nyquist easily getting close to 10 (if not more) for his given how he deliberately shoved the end of the blade of his stick going towards Spurgeon's eyeball under the visor.

[Obsidian]

Keith got 5 games taken off his suspension for being a Chicago Blackhawk though.

[Vaspinne]

Brent Burns 2 points off of the league lead. Un-fucking-real. I don't think he'll win the Art Ross race at the end of the season but would be amazing if he somehow beat both McJesus and Crosby. Bobby Orr has been the only defenseman to win it and he won it twice no less lol. The last time being back in 1975.

[Sepukku]

"Defenseman".... I guess after Erik karlsson got called that you can throw that label on anyone now

[Obsidian]

"He puts up points, he must be terrible at defense." - Every idiot, ever.

1-5-1 since Feb
9-10-2 since Jan
15-14-6 since Dec

But you know...


Another year where Therrien isnt fired because of some excuse, like Price was hurt, or the team had many injuries to overcome.

[Richybear]

It's like the whole team goes Brian Savage now.
Start off October unstoppable, then by December just disappear

[Judai]

I've seen more talk about MTL making another big trade, then I have about them getting rid of Therrien.

inc Patches for Jeff Carter or Price for Lundqvist.

[Richybear]

Nah, Price for Fleury to put more pressure on a French Canadian

[Vaspinne]

I've actually seen stuff on Twitter calling for Therrien's firing... it was only 1 article from The Score... and it barely delved into the idea of firing him, but it's a start!!!

[NynJa]

Theyll trade another young stud citing locker room rifts, hence why they failed this year.

[Vaspinne]

Nyquist waived his right to an in-person hearing. Gonna get ban-hammered hard over the phone.
