I've heard other posters on this board refer to it in the past. I can tell from hearing him speak that he has a stutter.

I'm positive that Johnny Damon also has one. He always very controlled when he talks.
It is possible. I just assumed it was the foreign thing. Kipper was much the same way when we first acquired him

I also heard there were like 5 fights outside of the arena as well. Canuck fans are the worst.

Looking back at the replay, I agree with you in that Hamhuis didn't intend to fight Engelland there, and it looks like Hamhuis protected Engelland's head when all three of them went down.

I wonder if a third player is still able to join a fight though, regardless of the intention. If you're a guy like Engelland who sees another player come in, he won't perceive it as someone coming in to separate the fight, which is exactly why he took both on.


Good point. It's hard to say. I also think that the intention of the rule was to bar someone from jumping into a distinct fight between two players, as opposed to a 3rd guy jumping into a scrum where there's a 1v1. In this case, there was a distinct fight between two individuals. Tough call. I think the NHL waives the Engel/Hamhuis suspensions and calls it a night. No real purpose to disciplining either one further in terms of deterring further misconduct.

Just my opine.

The main board is just... no words. So much ******** being spewed. It angers me.

I should just log off before I say something I regret.

Bob McKenzie is laying down his holy word:

Bob McKenzie ‏@TSNBobMcKenzie 2m2 minutes ago
Engelland's three game misconducts, I am told, are in different categories, so they don't cumulatively result in automatic suspension(s)...

That said, Engelland could still be suspended as a result of the instigator penalty in the final five minutes. NHL apparently has 3 options:

1. @NHLPlayerSafety can uphold the instigator call, uphold auto one-game suspension and $10K fine to Hartley, or...

3. @NHLPlayerSafety can uphold instigator call, have it count towards running total for Engelland but choose not to enforce the suspension.

IMO there is a better chance that Russell gets suspended than Engelland

And that's in slow-motion. In fast motion it looks a lot more vicious.

As for Russell crosscheck on Bonino that has many wound up, as @FriedgeHNIC noted on broadcast, nothing expected in terms of supp discipline

All i know is that I am willing to bet anything on the Flames stepping up big time Sunday.

Good night fellas. Remember, 1-1 is good for road.
