Agreed. The talent is definitely there. It's almost as if we expect to score 3+ goals night in and night out without any effort at all. Sometimes it is as simple as chipping the puck in deep, wearing down the opposition's defensemen on the forecheck, and crashing the net. Abdelkader needs to step up and play the way we brought him up to. Stir it up, and go to the areas not many others on the team are willing to go. Back to basics.

Agreed. I think they should ease up a little bit on the hooking and holding. We've seen many incidents where a puck is dumped in and the defenseman gets wasted because his partner can't obstruct the forechecking player in any way at all. Even just a little tug or hold in that situation would be ideal.

Great hit. Nothing wrong with that. The Pens commentators are the biggest idiotic homers, I thought Jack Edwards was bad.

NHL could lose Air Canada sponsorship over headshots

So...basically this is the beginning of big corporations dictating how the league is run? -
TBL Pavel Kubina suspended three games
Bring Back The Bruise Bros replied to commadore183's topic in General
So we're gonna suspend players based on the outcomes of their hits? -
3/11 GDT: Oilers 1 at Red Wings 2 (OT)

Janik back in? -
Another year or two and we'll see him in Detroit?
-
It's getting to the point where if the head is touched, there is a penalty called, no questions asked.

I can't wait for this kid to make his way here. Sounds like another McCarty All I hear about this kid is good news, never anything bad. He's been on such a tear, and he's not showing any signs of slowing down.

TBL Pavel Kubina suspended three games
Bring Back The Bruise Bros replied to commadore183's topic in General
Didn't look too malicious, but the contact to the head was definitely there. Has Kubina been suspended before? -
Look forward to seeing him back up. He seems to play decent whenever called upon.
-
I don't see how that's a charge. The color commentator even went to the extent of saying the game is "being attacked", because of disciplinary action for seemingly good hockey hits. At worst, it was MAYBE a 2 minute minor for a charge. No way in hell was that's a 5 and a game.

I never said what Gillies did was right. I never said he wasn't taunted before. I don't know where you're getting that from.
-
Come on, now. You can never have too much leadership on a team, but at the same time, you don't want an overly elderly team. Who knows what Osgood, Draper, Modano, and Salei will do after this year. I do think we need to get a little bit younger, at least.
-
Only more fuel for the fire.
-
When Johnson dropped Dipietro, the entire Pittsburgh bench was laughing and taunting, and there weren't many hissy fits about that. Same idea with Gillies. Obviously, the hit deserved a suspension, but some people on here act like they've never seen taunting in the game of hockey before.
-
Wish him the best and hope to see him back on the ice. One of the toughest players in today's game.

L.A. seems to have our number lately. Lets play some defense. LGW -
The person below me game...
Bring Back The Bruise Bros replied to SouthernWingsFan's topic in Water Cooler
All I know is, he's a whiny little ******. The person below me isn't too excited about going to work tomorrow. -
It's obviously debatable, but I think 5 and a game is fair discipline. I think the reason behind the game misconduct was to just get him outta the game so they wouldn't have a scrum after every whistle with Habs going after Chara. I don't think any suspension is necessary here. Chara doesn't have a history of cheapshots and dirty hits. Was it ugly? Yes. Was it an obvious cheapshot? Not in my eyes. If anything, it was late. Then again, I can't imagine Chara had no clue where he was on the ice.

Bring Back The Bruise Bros replied to SouthernWingsFan's topic in Water Cooler
I do not. Deodorant gets the job done for me. The person below me is worried gas will soar to over $4 a gallon before the end of the month across the country. -
Beauty. He's really developing into a decent two-way player. Don't wanna see him in any other jersey.
-
Can't believe there wasn't a suspension. I'm waiting for video of Steve Ott's 5 minute major and game misconduct for spearing in tonight's game between the Stars and Kings.

Wings Playoff/Cup chances?
Bring Back The Bruise Bros replied to Mabuhay Red Wings's topic in General
There needs to be a few shake ups on defense. Clearly, that's our biggest problem. If Lids retires, that obviously magnifies the issue. I don't see many shake ups as far as forwards. I'd like to see a gritty bottom 6 guy, but that could depend on whether Draper decides to play another year. -
Can't believe Carcillo didn't get dealt at the deadline. Scratched again today.
