Why oh why is this game at 10PM on a Sunday?! This league will always be second rate, because they pull crap like this. Want people to watch your sport, how about putting big games at a reasonable start time for everyone.
How the f*** do you have ONE shot on goal in a 5 minute PP? UNREAL!!!!!
Cause all they do is pass. No creativity at all! Frustrating to watch and funny. When do you stop passing and just notice the ducks are not giving you lanes to shoot.
Wings need to be more physical and match the ducks. The kronner hit was ncie but the wings passed up so many hits and just peeled away, they need to finally jsut play playoff hockey.
This is why tootoo needs to be playing . He does not just bring energy, he brings fear that if I do not play this puck properly tootoo will level me. Players make mistakes when they have to play with their head on a swivel.
Shanahan pointed one thing out that I didn't notice until I watched the video. Abdelkader skated in a huge "C" all the way around the offensive zone before lining up that hit. That's pretty much the definition of charging. He never said Abby left his feet, but you can't deny the fact that Abby was going dangerously fast for a high-ish hot like that
If you hold on to the puck that long with your head down you deserve to get leveled, but cleanly. If abby would have stayed low, we would be talking about how that was one of the best hits of the playoffs. I agree that he should have been suspended for 1 game. I am just frustrated with how the league handles suspensions these days.
