Post-Game Talk: #68: FLYERS 5 at Islanders 2, Saturday, Mar. 9, 2019, 7:00 pm ET

[Jtown]

jesus f***ing christ are you joking? 1 game maybe 2 games really f***ing hurts us. These mother f***ers.

 

[SolidSnakeUS]

Malkin, a repeat offender, got 1 game for using his stick as a weapon, and Jake, who has no record, and Boychuk or still basically ran into him headfirst, got 2 games. This f***ing joke a of a league.

 

[Striiker]

If I sprint into a wall can I sue the building owners?

 

[DaphneLion]

DOPS is a punchline, but we all already knew that. At least Jake will be well rested for Friday. Here's to hoping he has a 5 pt game against Toronto

 

[GKJ]

The officials didn’t understand the situation on the ice so I didn’t expect them to make the right call here.

If it cost Voracek 2 games to protect himself then so be it.

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

NHL gonna NHL.

 

[kudymen]

I am not surprised. The DoPS frequently show in their videos how creative they can be in understanding or shifting the rules.
Thats just another one on the list.

 

[orangecrush8]

2 games is absolutely ludicrous.

Joke league.

 

[bennysflyers16]

1 game I could accept, but how a one handed stick swing is worth less than this is outrageous.

And Charas hit on Kane was miles worse

 

[Curufinwe]

Jake is an awesome Flyer and anyone who ever lobbied to trade him should be ashamed.

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

Malkin and Gabriel’s actions are apparently more acceptable than Voracek protecting himself.

Unbelievable anywhere else but the NHL.

 

[kudymen]

If they are actually trying to sell me the story that the f***er was just chasing the puck, I would really love to see the animation of how Boychuk at that speed, angle and board proximity miraculously stops and cleanly gets the puck.
Assholes

 

[Curufinwe]

The officials didn’t understand the situation on the ice so I didn’t expect them to make the right call here.

If it cost Voracek 2 games to protect himself then so be it.

Yup, he definitely did the right thing.

 

[SolidSnakeUS]

Jake is an awesome Flyer and anyone who ever lobbied to trade him should be ashamed.

Good to know he knows it's bullshit too. Can't you appeal this shit anyways or is that for the longer suspensions?

 

[Flyerfan4life]

Its baffling to me that in this day and age there are people who think save percentage is squarely on goalies and not influenced by system.

case in point Knight deflecting the puck into his own net from 10 feet out on Elliott..

how is that goal on Moose ???

 

[bennysflyers16]

With one game being the Sens, I don’t think you can appeal it.

He plays if he appeals doesn’t he ?

 

[Domino666]

That’s a joke, I am more pissed off about Malkin getting one game for swinging his stick like a weapon at Raffl’s head but god forbid the NHL suspend him as a repeat offender, consistency is all is fans ask for

 

[BackToTheBrierePatch]

Dear George Parros, I used to like you when you played minor hockey here, now you can GTFO. One to many punches to the head.

 

[Tripod]

Gabriel gets 1, yet Jake 2??????

 

[FlyTimmo]

Embarrassingly bad. The DOPS should be ashamed.

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

With one game being the Sens, I don’t think you can appeal it.

He plays if he appeals doesn’t he ?

He’s not going to appeal it. It’s not worth it.

 

[SuchySays]

That's ridiculous.

Also, I shouldn't have replied to that tweet. Getting brigading by angry loser Islander fans.

 

[Striiker]

Jake is an awesome Flyer and anyone who ever lobbied to trade him should be ashamed.

Yep.

Beast on the ice, awesome off the ice. Love Voracek.

 

[bennysflyers16]

Gabriel gets 1, yet Jake 2??????

I forgot about that. Actually ran him head first into boards.

 

[Adtar02]

This league is a joke
