Great time at the AAC last night.  Way too close for comfort and we have to figure the 3rd period out but good W.  Fuck the Avs and their bitch ass fans crying about that hit.   And maybe keep your head up if you are along the boards dumbass.  

On a flight to Vegas for the weekend.   Let's grab game 3 and the series momentum Saturday.

Makar got suspended for that hit.  Are you saying Benn should also be suspended?  Dude went shoulder first into Toews' head and left his feet.

he didn't hit is head.

It was a dirty hit and I don't know how they waived off the penalty.  I saw a clear hit to the head.  I'm just glad Toews came back and seems to be OK.

 

Maybe Manson needs to kick Benn's ass again.  He hit him into the Stars bench last night.

 

you saw a clear hit to the head just like the dumbass announcer who had to backtrack after getting all excited, not paying attention to the video, and admit he couldn't tell if Benn hit his head.  his arm stays down.

No he didn't. Stop making shit up.

He went shoulder to shoulder on him, elbow down, and hit him hard enough that his head whipped around, making it look in real-time like he had hit his head. Even the annoncers were talking about it.

 

It was a helluva big hit, but it was clean and legal.

Dude, I saw it.  And so did all of you, but it was your guy so you'll back him.

Yeah, that's why Toews went in to get tested for concussion protocol.  Because he totally didn't hit his head.

You do understand that you don't need to be hit in the head to suffer a concussion, right? Right? And you also understand that being tested for it doesn't mean you have a concussion, right?

Yeah, I'm thankful he doesn't have a concussion.  But let's quit with the 'didn't hit him in the head' bullshit, mmmkay?

Nah I can separate my feelings from it, unlike you, apparently. If there's a bad call that helps my team, I can admit it.

I would do that ... had he actually hit him in the head.

Yet you won't, so color me skeptical on that.

watch it at .25 speed. principal contact the shoulder, head whipped, hit in head by Johnston on the follow through. It was reviewed and determined to be a clean hit and it was. And no, Chewbacca ain't no Kid. He's more like Baron Munchausen, imagining a fight that isn't there. again, cry more.

Like I said, I'm the guy who can separate my love for my team from what I see on the screen. You must be the other guy.

OK. Cool. You do you. 

When I first saw it in real time, I thought he might have hit him in the head and would have been fine with a penalty if that's what the replays actually showed him doing. Then I saw the replays that confirmed that he indeed did not hit Toews in the head. His head whipped around because of how hard Benn hit him, not because he had hit  him in the head. 

Now, what do you think about Hintz & Marchment on the receiving end of phantom Embellishment calls that kept the Stars from going on the powerplay?

First one was hintz, and Colorado had already come back to tie I think. The pp would have been to go back ahead.  I didn’t think that one was a good call. 
 

the one on marchment last night, yeah he threw his feet forward so I could see that it was embellishment, but I see what appears to be embellishment lots of games and it almost never gets called.

Thanks. Yeah I was wondering if both were actually on Marchment. Can't 'member shit. And yeah the one on Hintz was was huge because the Stars should have been on the PP. The Marchment one I can actually see as being embellishment, but like you said, we see worse all the time that don't get called. That's why I wonder what he did that made it so bad that this time they called it.  Odd that it's been called twice in the last two games to keep us off the PP.

But anyway, it don't make a shit.

It’s clear as day to me at 2:50 of the clip. It was shoulder to shoulder and his neck whipped due to the force of contact. They called a major and then reviewed and say no penalty. Remember you can only confirm/reverse major call there. You can’t knock it down to a 2-min minor.

I do know one thing — whoever wins this series is gonna wipe the floor with Edmonton/Vancouver winner in the WCF.

Why the game gotta start so late? Sucks.

Because for some damn reason they have to show the games on the same channel instead of having one on tnt and the other on espn. They alternate nights, but apparently not possible to alternate in the same night

Man, I don’t ever want to see the day (or night) when 9:00 on a Saturday is too late for a sporting event I give a shit about. 
I'm an hour earlier than you are, and I'll watch the whole game, but no reason for such a late start on the weekend.

I gotta get up for work at 2:30. It’s less than ideal for me.

What I have picked up from Denver sports radio is the NO ONE is Makar.  Maaaybe Bobby Orr,  But comparing anyone else to Makar is utter heresy.
Heiskanen is not close to Makar. Say whatever you want, that's true.
