And Berube said some things before that, maybe the NHL will open their eyes

You should be on Comedy Central with comedy like that.

As Vladdy said, "freakin" should be used instead.

I don't use 'freakin' in my real life, I don't suppose I will in my imaginary one either. There are thresholds, though.

Heat of the moment usually is fine. Casual conversation should be kept respectful. It's only polite. Whether you're an adult or not, as most of us are, is immaterial. Matt has asked us all to be judicious in the use of curse words is all. Dropping an F bomb in every other post is going to get edited or deleted, and it's silly to lose posting privileges over it.

I gotcha. I was just trying to hypothetically draw the line so I knew which side to stand on.


BACK ON TOPIC: Did Orpik get suspended for the preseason knee on Franzen, last year was it? I don't remember.

He did not.

Unless we see a magical apology in the next couple of days, haha.

You mean like, Mike noballs Milbury? Frickin spineless s***head.

Spineless s***head? Seriously?

[Detroit # 1 Fan]

Was just watching a clip of Sid responding to Torts comments on the Score, he said Callahan whines to the refs more then he or Malkin And that Torts will just apologize like Milbury and all will be forgotten. Pfft, this kid is a clown. I hope to god he never captains Team Canada, and I really hope the Flyer can pull the upset on these dummies in the first round.

Someone, anyone, please clean this clown's clock.

[Crashnburnluder]

Did he really say he will just apologize for it?

Also is there really no discipline????

There are a great many insults that can be slung in Milbury's direction, but I don't think a lack of chutzpah is among them. If you doubt me, I dare you to call him spineless to his face.

You know what, I LOVE TORTORELLA. HAHA. Nice. It validates wings fans since 2008 calling Crosby a whiner. Other team fans didn't agree, now they should be more convinced of it. I love it...

I hope Philly rams Crosby and knocks him out of the playoffs. Despite the talent, he's a moron. Of course, I am hoping for a clean hit...sorta .

So I just watched the hit by Orpik. How is that defendable in any way whatsoever? The guy LEAD with his knee...unbelievable. I don't know how Orpik doesn't get more suspension time. Torts was right, absolutely ridiculous.

I'd be pissed if I was the coach, too.

I'm trying to figure out how you can say "I don't know how Orpik doesn't get more suspension time." and "I hope Philly rams Crosby and knocks him out of the playoffs." in the same post.

I'll do it again...

Watch this:

"I don't know how Orpik doesn't get more suspension time." and "I hope Philly rams Crosby and knocks him out of the playoffs."

I don't like Crosby, never have. No I am not jealous, since I think Datsyuk is a better player. Crosby is on his last leg anyways, and Bettman, who has thrown everything the NHL has to offer behind Crosby, knows it. So, they'll do their best to protect him.

But, once you start having concussions, you're very likely to have more. Crosby's career is already in jeopardy and it won't take a dirty hit to knock him out.

This is what the league wanted by changing the rules and bringing in the instigator rule. Nobody to blame but themselves...

And the fact that you're wishing a potentially career ending and life changing injury on another human being doesn't even enter the equation?

[GMRwings1983]

Yeah, Philly doesn't have any whiners on their team.

Briere and Jagr come to mind. I'm sure there's others if I thought hard about it.

I'm sure hell apologize today about it, and everything will be forgotten.

Hahah, the only way people will forget about Crosby being a whiny ****** is if he starts acting like a man, and continues to do so for the rest of his career. Even then people will slam him for being a ***** for his first 7 seasons.

He wont change, even after being called out twice in one week. What a cowardly little whiner, can't stand his attitude.

[Hockeymom1960]

Wow, now it's $20,000. Hell if I had $20,000 to throw around I'd pay Tort's fine. Never heard that you couldn't say something about another team. I know you can't call out the minions or Buttman.

[Red Wings Addict]

Did Berube get a fine?

[Doc Holliday]

"John Tortorella has been fined $10,000 for his comments about the Pittsburgh Penguins on Thursday..."

I was 10 grand off. Damn.

[Vladifan]

It'd be fun to start a fund to pay Tortorella's fine. Probably illegal, but oh, if we could...I'm sure fans from all over the league would donate.

Also - didn't NHL players vote Crosby the whiniest sob in the league some time ago? What's Bettman gonna do? Fine all of them? What.an.arrogant.idiot.
