Post-Game Talk: #30: Senators 3 at FLYERS 4, Saturday, Dec. 7, 2019, 1 pm ET [Konecny UBI]

[kudymen]

According to a few Sens fans on the main board:

-Laughton got what he deserved
-Laughton dove
-That type of cross check is rarely even a penalty
-They are proud of Tkachuk for doing what he did

Their board talked like this after the game already, reading their comments was painful.
I mean, I can be blind with some of our players too but not this much.

I'm going to probably get fried for saying this but if any Tkachuk was a Flyer they'd be loved.

This is true.

Just like Bruins fans love Marchand. Nothing surprise.

 

[TheKingPin]

I guess I'd rather they either suspend a player or do nothing, because these little fines almost feel like they're only done so the NHL can pat themselves on the back and pretend they're doing something when they're really not. The whole point of fines/suspensions is to dissuade players from breaking rules, but this fine doesn't do that in any way, so it seems fake.

I think it’s more about documenting infractions so future suspensions will be harsher.

Maybe as a player. But that play was trash. Like used Taco Bell spork, trash.

 

[Prongo]

Being a fan of the team always impairs your judgement on what players do. I saw on twitter people say Laughton turtled... he got cross checked to the ground then was jumped when Thachuk new a penalty was coming.

it was a stupid dirty play. And since the league didn’t do anything the players will more than likely make him answer the bell next time they play. Who on our side will? No idea. Maybe Bruan so then we don’t have to have him on the ice for 5 minutes lol

 

[YEM]

& we'd love what he did at the end there and we'd think that Laughton is a turtling punk, etc.

 

[Captain Dave Poulin]

It breaks me everytime I read the word "offsides" instead of the correct term offside. I don't understand where the s comes from.

#triggered

I trigger myself every single time I use either one of them.

The amount of the fine is a joke as well, it carries zero effect on the player, and I can’t wait for the DOPS legendary inconsistency in what gets a fine and what gets a suspension, for a league who has a ton of head injuries they sure are ignoring a lot of things that lead to said injuries, almost as if they don’t care (which we all know they don’t)

Yeah, just like how Flyers fans cheered for Gudas for four seasons.

 

[Beef Invictus]

Yeah, just like how Flyers fans cheered for Gudas for four seasons.

Flyers fans here also called him out for dirty play.

You failed.

Just look at how Rinaldo was brought up on this board. Didn’t matter what jersey he wore, he would be criticized for reckless behavior. To support cross checking and then jumping a player is dumb. Oh well, got the W. On to bigger and better things.

Rinaldo once threw a dirty hit on a Penguin and Flyers fans on the main board thread were as angry as Pens fans. We were sick of his crap.

 

[Prongo]

Oh easy comeback. When Gudas did something that was stupid we even called for a suspension. Cheering for a player and cheering for a player doing something stupid is different. Get some perspective.

Every teams fans lean towards supporting there players during questionable on ice plays....but how do you defend jumping a player when your team can get back in the game. It’s stupid.

 

[wankstifier]

What's the on ice value of murdering your teammate?

MDQ%12.5 according to my calculations.

if payback happens the meltdown will be fun to watch

 

[KingsHockey24]

How has Andy Andreoff been?

 

[FatTugboatFlahr]

How has Andy Andreoff been?

Trash

 

[wankstifier]

How has Andy Andreoff been?

He hasn't played for the Flyers since 19 November.

 

[Cootsfanclub]

Yeah, just like how Flyers fans cheered for Gudas for four seasons.

I don’t think Gudas was a dirty player. When you throw the body around as much as him a few hits are gonna be suspension worthy. Rinaldo was a different story, as was Razor with his Holtby “fight.”

 

[Ghosts Beer]

I like having a couple dirty players on the Flyers. Sue me. Pronger was evil & I loved it. I wish they had a Tkachuk. I’d trade Hagg for Borowiecki in an instant. I’d love to get Josh Anderson.

 

[Starat327]

What a surprising take. Anything to go against the grain, I guess.
