BottleOfSmoke 5,965 Report post Posted May 5, 2013 Ok, I'm trying really hard to be objective. If the Ducks laid that hit on a Wing, I would be pissed and think the major was warranted. But a game and talk of suspension? Get the f*** out of here... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
turbowhistle86 155 Report post Posted May 5, 2013 Can already hear the phone conversation.... Secretary---"Mr Babcock, it's Shanny on line two" Babs----"Just ask him how many" Shanny---"he's got to sit until you can go a full period without a stupid penalty" Babs---"Geez might as well be until Quincey scores!" He then instructs Kronwall to give the phone the business end of a signature hit. 1 datterberg1340 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lomekian 201 Report post Posted May 5, 2013 Even Mike Keenan thinks he should be suspended. My only regret (besides that it probably costs us the game), is that it wasn't on Selanne's head. I'd love to see just how strong that "unusual" helmet of his is. Mike Keenan isn't exactly unbiased though! 2 Hockeymom1960 and MTU_Huskies963 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GoalieManPat 1,007 Report post Posted May 5, 2013 Was a stupid play by Abby, and I bet he is suspended for it. Maybe the Wings might actually step up this period. Doing his job and hitting a player clean was stupid? It was a clean play straight up. Saying otherwise is not understanding the rules. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RedWingsRox 614 Report post Posted May 5, 2013 Shanny likes the Wings ... right? No further suspension. 5 and game misconduct served the purpose. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pucktividi 472 Report post Posted May 5, 2013 Ok so no Abby,no Tootoo let's win a game on pure skill and finesse.That's what Babs wanted with this lineup anyway Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
26point2 203 Report post Posted May 5, 2013 I'm sorry to all the left leaning folks on this board...but I'm sick and ******* tired of the pussification of this game. NBC can just go and fail as a TV network. Let's start showing hockey on A&E, at least they show folks shooting guns, fighting alligators and beavers and peeling the skin off of small furry creatures. Or better yet...the History Channel...they have a show that is 100% sword and axe fighting Scandinavians. 6 evilmrt, Hockeymom1960, zztop40 and 3 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hockeymom1960 5,107 Report post Posted May 5, 2013 There was head contact in that hit, and he left his feet. I don't know what you people are seeing, or if you have your homer glasses on. Reallyf****** dumb play by Abby No one has their homer glasses on. They just see it differently than YOU do. 2 evilmrt and puckloo39 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Reallyf****** dumb play by Abby Learn the rules. The fact that the head took contact means nothing. The head has to be the principle point of contact on the hit. If it was just the head taking contact there would be no hits in any game ever. Abby got his shoulder, chest, and then head. 2 Hockeymom1960 and datterberg1340 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
