Sharks player fell over boards?

[Red Wings 2010 9]

Did anyone remember seeing this? he was sitting in the bench, leaned out and fell out onto the ice, knocking the ref now. I can't find a video of it.

You bet your ass I do. I'd love to see a video, too.

My girlfriend is somewhat new to hockey and she's been watching with me. When it happened she was like, "what the f*** was that?!"

[hooon 1,089]

I saw this too. It was when Franzen or Helm or someone was rushing up the boards into their zone with the puck. I couldn't really see what happened, but it was like an avalanche of bodies falling off the bench lol.

I believe it was in the 3rd period. Towards the end perhaps?

[deltawing 12]

I saw it too and laughed out loud pretty hard. Great s***.

[Red Wings 2010 9]

Damn, I wanna see it again. I couldn't even tell who fell. And yeah, I think it was in the 3rd period, 1 wing was rushing into offensive zone.

[Sprsquirt7 45]

It was Abdelkader I believe. two bodies came rolling out right by him. If he had interfered with the play would that have been a too many men on the ice call? Or do you call interference on him even if he's playing a player with the puck?

At the time I was thinking, "Uhm, too many men penalty for the Sharks?" though I wasn't sure if it was a failed line change or what.

Same here. It happened right as the Wings were headed up that side of ice and all of a sudden it looked like someone tumbled towards the puck. I definitely had a "WTF was that!? Too many men?!" moment too.

Last nights game to me seemed like a circus act out there. Players running into there own team and now this.. haha.

[brett 1,029]

it was abs rushing up the boards. i was pretty surprised to see him jump over and avoid the ref and the shark player

Anyone know when it was? I can get a video if i know where to look in the game

It was a Sharks player jumping over the boards right where the linesman was skating by. The sharks player stayed on his skates, but leaned forward a bit. He just jumped on and didn't see the linesman coming.

I think sometime in the last half of the 3rd when Abby had the puck. Right by the Sharks bench.

Especially considering he wiped a ref out, if I recall

[Z Winged Dangler 2,082]

sure did

not sure why SJ are jumping the refs...they got the 5 on 3 PP's

I was thinking to many men one the ice as well. I just thought the official he took out was probably the one who would have made the call.

[eva unit zero 271]

It would only have been a too many men penalty had he interfered with the play before the player he was replacing left the ice, or the player he was replacing been an unreasonable distance from the bench, so if he got on the ice and all that happened was he took out a linesman, there's no penalty.
