Doesnt change the fact that Bouchard would still have the same reaction 🤣

Yeah

Bouchard is probably the most inept D in his the defensive zone of his generation. I have never seen him make a heady play in his own zone, or not look dumb founded when he misses the puck / man / play.

The guy should just convert to forward, and stop the pretense by lining up as a D.

Big Frank was on Sekeres and Price. Price takes a shot at Edmonton's defense and Frank gets pissy at him. There's a big disagreement about Edms defense

Why though? It’s common knowledge Edmonton doesn’t have good defence

Franky has a big bet on the Oilers winning the series.

Dude seems to have aged alot looking like a 70 year old instead of 30. Must be because he bets on Oilers winning the cup every year and losing big 🤣

I’m not looking to “win”. I am stating why I understand the call and think it was deserved.

Counterpoint, show me all the charging penalties and that this has never happened. You rightfully wont, it’s a waste of time as would it be for me to look through every charge to find an exact instance to this. Your asking for something I and no other person would do.

I’ve already addressed the “skating into” point you are trying to make. You can skate into a player, you cannot jump into them. He meant to hit the player and he jumped, I’ve said this multiple times yet keep getting mid-quoted.

Watch games; look for players that jump as they're about to be hit.

Bennett in BOS v FLA just jumped into a hit. Penalty calls no where to be found. It happens a lot.

The only difference I see is Pettersson just happened to do it so well it knocked the guy as on his ass.

It is what it is but to declare this as a definitive interpretation of the rules is false.

(As I type this, Marchand just jumped from a hit and made contact with the hitter. Nothing.)

At the end of the day, it's a penalty. We can argue semantics on it being called a Charging penalty, but it's still a pretty obvious call using Interference, Elbowing, Hit to the head, a number of other names. You can't just jump into a hit, or if you're going to do it, make it less obvious.

It absolutely isn't and you're 100% wrong.

Show me *any* time when any player has been called for that. You can't.

Meanwhile, watch a game, and look for a player jumping into a hit to counter the hit. I just watched it twice BOS v FLA.

Announcers even said they have literally never seen someone called for charging when they had the puck. It was a bizarre nonsensical call.

I’ve migrated my conversation of this to the poll thread that was made so if you’d like to respond there if you desire to, long story short, imo: Petey attempted a reverse hit and that’s the difference. Getting hit and jumping is not the same as attempting to hit and jumping.

Plus its playoffs and they dont even call boarding penalties that hapoebed 10 times in Canucks game yet they give a penalty to petersson for jumping 5 inches. Pretty soft and pathetic penalty, especially when Oilers keep embellishing every hit and dive every chance they get. My sister would still be standing if 160 pound petersson jumped up next to her yet the oilers player milks it for all its worth.

It prob is a penalty I just didn't like it. After the Oilers had like 3 in a row to start. And after watching Nurse drive Petey head first from behind into the boards with no call it just seemed like wtf. But end of the day yea it prob was a penalty. Calling it charging seems weird though .

So what do you call it? It shouldn’t be a penalty.

Edit: Ugh didn’t realize I was back in this thread :D

Frank says that the advanced stats show that Edmonton's defense has been one of the best in the league in the latter half
Click to expand...
Frank is always wrong about these things and hockey aint baseball. There is physicality and contact in the game that can make the stat useless. If stats were so important, Oilers would have swept the Canucks already with their 100% PP but they are not.

Not sure. But jumping into a reverse hit the way he did isn't exactly clean. I'm conflicted on the play. It's kinda 50/50 to me. But I can see it being called in the future. Not sure I've ever seen someone jump into a reverse hit like Petey did. f*** i donno man.

Let me drink on it and get back to you. I see it from both sides.
