Polak may have been okay, but the league wants to crackdown on dangerous late blindside hits as history showed us in this past that it never really ends well for the player throwing the bit nor the guy that receives the hit

Gudas hit on Farnham in Februrary didn't warrant susp, and Virtanen's did? Consistency.

have you seen (or read about) who runs the nhl?
player safety department is player safety by name only

might as well be monkeys in the background determining logic for suspensions

Nabatron 03-31-2016 08:54 AM

wow that doesnt make any sense! practically the same hit just not as fast...

I failed u because the league isnt cracking down on shit! They are so inconsistent it isnt even funny...exhibit A gudas hit on farnham pretty much the exact hit on polak just not going at a faster speed...the NHL is a joke when it comes out to handing out suspensions...

In light of what is happening with Duncan Keith right now, I leave this here.

Blackhawks? Duncan Keith rips into female Vancouver reporter | National Post

He is a great player but can snap and go Raffe Torries/Matt Cooke too.

Jmac 03-31-2016 11:45 AM

On Gudas, at that point he had already been ejected from 2 games in the prior month for illegal checks. So that was his 3rd game misconduct/match penalty for illegal hits in 4 weeks. And didn't receive a single suspension.

He did get suspended earlier this season for a check on Mika Zibanejad and also received another game misconduct (no suspension) for a hit in October.

Basically, he's Raffi Torres ... But he plays for the Flyers, so the NHL doesn't care.

Nabatron 03-31-2016 12:55 PM

Raffi is he man! When gillis didn't resign him all our grit and hits left as well...till kenins showed that he could hit for half a season then is most likely gone at the end of the year!

PiuYi 03-31-2016 02:29 PM

the commentator on the Gudas hit: "I don't think that's a match penalty, a minor maybe." :lawl:

I'm not the biggest McCann fan and I'd cringe at that trade... if we lose Tanev I'm going berzerk

TjAlmeida 03-31-2016 02:43 PM

IMO, and i am sure a lot of people wont agree, as well I am sure Nabatron will fail me for an opinion and reply with a lot of !!!!!!!!

but..

I think Mccann has a higher ceiling then Virtanen, Virtanen has been able to show more this season because of his size right out of junior where Mccann needs to put on 10-15lbs.


..Flame on

i kinda agree but its way too early still to really concretely say who's got a higher ceiling
McCann would definitely benefit from a year or two in Utica building strength and good habits
...that is until fuckface Benning decides to trade him for another plug because he wasn't sure if the scoring will translate into the NHL


imo, Jake would benefit more staying in the NHL and learning the power game in measured minutes and limited roles

Damn Sportsnet Pacific showed that stat of the Canucks having a undefeated record of 5-0 in road games vs San Jose since 2013. They're jinxing the tank!!
:mad:

-also saw this tweet: Vancouver Canucks ‏@VanCanucks 11h11 hours ago
The #Canucks travel to California and look for their sixth win in a row against the Sharks at the Shark Tank.


C'mon Tankcouver!
