Post-Game Talk: Game 68 - Krug wins it in OT - BRUINS 2 Sunrise 1 F/OT

[lopey]

Pure speculation but I’m guessing the call was changed because he didn’t look to be hurt bad enough for a major.

What? How hurt do you have to be? Out cold? He was on his knees, clearly injured...

 

[Oates2Neely]

Any update on Carlo?

Any update on Carlo?

Are you talking Borg style or cosmetics...

 

[BradPark22]

I agree I didn't see any intent there either.

Speaking of which, Jack Edwards sounded like a complete you-know-what last night, went on and on over the elbow. Like give it a rest Jack. I've always tolerated Edwards, but he's been on a different level of annoying this year.

Completely disagree about last night. That was a remarkably quick witted statement by Edwards when Dadanov's stick broke in OT.

 

[KillerMillerTime]

Completely disagree that there was any intent behind it. He was trying to toe drag the puck which pushed his elbow back - if you stand up right now and try the same motion, there is no way you can do it where he was on the ice without getting your elbow back. It's a frustrating play and should've been 4 minutes IMO regardless of intent, but I would be surprised if there was any incoming discipline.

You're entitled to your opinion, but I am going to ask
a very simple question. Have you ever seen a player
look directly behind them on a closing player then
immediately plant an elbow directly in their face
while trying to attempt a toe drag on someone
literally on their back?

Most F of Dadanov's skill are imminently capable of
misdirecting like Marchand or making a simple
bank pass off the boards to the point.

Further, players don't "toe drag" in those circumstances.
The vast and I mean vast majority of toe drags occur
with players facing each other. That "toe drag" was nothing more than part of a sneaky, dirty elbow.

Agreed he should, and he got a penalty for it, just like you would for an intentional high stick - you would never get a suspension for an intentional high stick just because the guy is injured.

An intentional high stick? You would.

Did you mean unintentional?

Giving two minutes for that elbow literally is against the rules the officials allegedly know.

 

[BMC]

*runs around the forum high fiving everyone and then runs into the Florida locker room and breaks all of Dadonov's sticks over his head whoopsie didn't see you there my bad ha ha ha we won*

*David Coyle butt ends Dadenov in the mouth *. “Sorry didn’t see you “

Second time, so it seems that Carlo has to be more careful around Russians.

Russians like Dadanov are known for occasional dirty stickwork.

At least with Ovie you absolutely know what is coming almost everytime.

 

[lopey]

DOPS won't do a thing with Dadanov. If they deemed the hit on Rask against Columbus as accidental, they will use that same flawed logic here. It is bullshit. Kane is right, the league needs a 3 man panel of outside people to decide what warrants a suspension, not one man who has biased opinions.

 

[DarrenBanks56]

anyone thats played the game knows he intentionally elbowed carlo. it was a cheeky move.

Yeah sorry, early morning mistakes

Absolutely, toe drag my ass.

 

[Jean_Jacket41]

Dadonov is a weasel.

Would fit nicely on the Habs.

Hopefully someone tunes him good next time they play.

OT but Henri Richard passed this morning at 84.

 

[ODAAT]

played hockey many years, can`t ever recall me going into the corner, one of one with a D man and my elbow pulling a Costanza-like twitch to the point that it connected with the player attacking from behind

Sneaky dirty, plain and simple

RIP Pocket Rocket

Over/under on the length of the pre-game ceremony in Montreal?

I'll set it at 18 minutes

 

[missingchicklet]

I honestly thought the initial call was too severe right after the play. But I wasn't seeing the play from ice level. The ice level ref saw it well and made the correct call. It wasn't until they showed the replays that I realized what happened, then got pissed as hell. The on-ice call was spot-on. The replay system is broken on so many levels. How the hell the refs can overturn that call last night after seeing it on video review is inexplicable. The rulebook clearly outlines things, yet the refs actually went away from the rulebook after getting a look on video review. Amazing. And this has happened quite a bit in non-Bruins games I've watched as well, where they somehow butcher things more after doing the video review. This sustained level of incompetence over the years is unacceptable and needs to be changed.

RIP Pocket Rocket.

Not sure but think he scored the goal that launched the
G2 comeback in '71 against the B?'s.

 

[bbfan419]

Just like the EBUG situation was fine until it embarrassed the Leafs...now it isn't good enough.

Yes that is right, certain teams get favouritism.

 

[bbfan419]

Read yesterday that Shanahan said the leafs are building an elite team.

Yeah they have been saying that for the past 50 + years. LOL

I always loved that scene. Nicely done.

 

[bbfan419]

If you hit someone with your car and injure them the law is that you are supposed to have full control of your vehicle. Intent isn't really as big an issue as the result. He did look over his shoulder, he did knock Carlo out of the game and maybe even more. He should've gotten his ass kicked asap after. That didn't happen and if he isn't suspended it sets a precedent and proves that the NHL is full of shit in regards to protecting players from head-shots. If it were a Bruin who commited that foul he'd be suspended, no two ways about it. Double standards are a poor way to govern and IMO Jacobs should get involved as this seems to be a continuing trend.

For sure if that was Marchand or Chara that hit say Ekblad , they would have been tossed from the game, TSN, CBC and Sportsnet in Canada here would have played it a 1000 times and all we would hear about is how dirty the Bruins are, because they are upset their darling Leafs and habs suck big time against us.

 

[bbfan419]

This isn't driving a car, intent does matter - for example, should the player that cut Boychuk's eyelid be suspended or penalized for not being in control of his skate?

Different situation, I don't care what anyone says Dadonov knew what he was doing.

 

[bbfan419]

DOPS won't do a thing with Dadanov. If they deemed the hit on Rask against Columbus as accidental, they will use that same flawed logic here. It is bullshit. Kane is right, the league needs a 3 man panel of outside people to decide what warrants a suspension, not one man who has biased opinions.

They may do something simply because it favours the Leafs for the Panthers to lose Dadonov for a couple games.
