what Gary is talking about is that penalty when Kadri got cheapshot and took a dumb retaliatory penalty, but negated one we had. (or something like that, i don't remember). and the usual suspectrs got so mad, because people were saying that the penalty was selfish and that kadri should have clocked the guy later, not when he, being on the most proficient powerplay was needed to score to tie the game, vs. being in the box and negating said powerplay.
note how i am phrasing this.
Kadri took a dumb, selfish penalty.
that was exactly how it was said, and how it was phrased throughout the entire thread.
you can imagine who, got incensed because for whatever reason they assumed people were calling Kadri dumb and selfish. no matter how many people explained that wasn't the case, and explained the situation, oh no. how dare you call Kadri selfish (which no one did) he is so awesome and amazing, and blah blah blah blah blah. ignoring the fact that countless other players in that situation have been called the same thing (ie: bad penalty, dumb penalty, selfish penalty). and that did not mean that Kadri was dumb or selfish. hell. Polak took one a week later, people said it was okay (because he stood up for andersen) but itr was also a dumb one to take because of the timing, no one said a peep.
