Dubinsky out up to 2 months after Kassian’s punch.

[fragmag]

Have I mentioned how much I enjoyed watching Dubinsky get punched in the face? A lot, a whole lot!

Wow, I can't believe this has generated 12 pages of comments. Seemed pretty straightforward to me. Blowout game, late chippyness, two light heavyweights who are willing combatants, no clear instigator. Punches thrown, unfortunate injury. It was 100% standard hockey. No egregious dirtiness.

Apparently Brandon Dubinsky is not only the most hated guy of HF but the most popular. McDavid and Crosby’s popularity has got nothing on Dubi.

In all seriousness, there’s a lot of bickering and a whole lot of nothing in this thread. Not my most proudest thread that I’ve ever started lol. But here we are rollin’ boys! bout to be 25 pages deep by tomorrow morning at this rate. Woo........

Some cowards starts to turtle when they cant get the upperhand! Dub needed a couple of extra punches, Khaira didnt!

 

[YesCubed]

Dubinsky was running around like an idiot last night. That's exactly why guys like Kassian are so effective.

Hope he has an easy recovery but got what he deserved.

damn so kassian just let dubinsky run around for 58 minutes then?

It’s sad when a useless player injured a useful player.

Dubinsky didn't injure Kassian though

Wouldn't surprise me to see Dubitchnsky fake turtle just to have Kassian drop his guard. Good on Kassian for not letting up.

and Kassian is not useless, he has same amount of goals as Dubitchnsky for like 1/4 of the salary.

Kassian is far from useless. Dubinsky dropped his gloves first and got beat up. Got what was coming to him.

Kassian is a 15-20 point player who can barely get minutes on one of the worst teams in the league.

Dubinsky is a 40-45 point player who players tough match ups on a cup contender.


I don’t expect good talent evaluation from and Oilers fan, tho.

Considering that they have almost the same point total, despite the "useful" player getting much more ice time, I'm not sure that your characterization of the players is accurate.

Tell me, what exactly is Kassian good at? Winning 1-2 fights a year?

 

[lifelonghockeyfan]

That's about a first for Dub, dropping his gloves with a real fighter. Good news for Columbus, they have 2m in cap space during his abscene.

Dubinsky has 12 points in 31 games, Kassian has 10.

Also, excepting the short 14-15 season, Dubinsky production decreased every season since he joined CBJ. His low numbers this season are fitting perfectly this trend, so 40-45 points might be optimistic.

CBJ isnt a cup contender

 

[Critical13]

CBJ isnt a cup contender

You’re right, elite goaltending, top defender pairing in the NHL and elite talent up front - definitely not a contender.

 

[Theo Von]

CBJ isnt a cup contender

That’s your opinion but currently we sit atop of our division and tied for the 6th most points in the league. This is why my thread has gone 12 pages deep.. because of useless arguments.

 

[Drytoast]

two willing participants.

we need more fights, not less fights.

Show me one game that Dubinsky has had this kind of impact.




Oh wait, I forgot Dubinsky and the Jackets got slaughtered...

well trust me coming from an avowed oilers hater kassian had an exceptional playoff last year. i'm glad they lost but i am always objective and he performed at a high level.

dubinsky is a really good but dirty player.

dubinsky dropped the gloves first and then got beat up. it's called hockey.

 

[Poulin 0n My St1ck]

I started liking Kassian during last year's playoffs; now I'm a big fan of his.

 

[Forgot About Drai]

Your whole generation is nothing more than entitled wimps.

Ahahhaha classic.

And with that, this is a wrap. We're going in circles here.
