Dougie played the puck from the penalty box. That's quite dangerous in case someone comes by, trips on his stick and falls headfirst into the stanchion/whatever.

I think the positives are the Yeti and Krejci. Florek had a good game-he seems to enjoy the physicality and it's nice to see a big body called up instead of another small guy.
The PK managed to kill all but one of the 6/7 penalties (I lost count at some point). That's a step up from the Ducks game where it couldn't kill anything.
I really wish the league wide reffing would improve. Tonight's game had to be on of the most inconsistently called games this season. It wasn't really a refs calling a tight or lax game-they just couldn't figure out what was or wasn't a penalty and let things to they shouldn't have and then called the weak stuff.
I would like to forget these two games happened and I look forward to seeing Spooner with the Swedes on Saturday and I think Thornton will be all fired up but the refs are going to call him super tight because of the suspension so I figure the Sharks will get a couple of PP for Thornton getting reputation calls.

Never order the seafood platter on the road. I've never had "great" seafood on the west coast anyway. Some swear by it, though.
Yeah, giving him a pass b/c he either had the sprints, or linda blair syndrome. But, we've needed him to pick up the goal scoring for a while now.
Soda put his chances away tonight it still could have been interesting. The best one was a set up from Iggy. But, as if part of the trend they're in, Iggy put it in his skates instead of tape
B's are in a team wide rut.

Wondering if Thomas would consider coming back
does he have an NTC? Probably wouldn't cost much.. and maybe reuniting that duo would light a fire under Tuukka.

Its Marchand tonight! Apparently a gloved punch to a player interfering with you is punishable to the highest degree.
Piss poor effort. The 2nd period continues to be a nuisance. Sloppy. No possession. Disappointing effort all around.

ok just got back from there. looks like it's Marchand tonight for a possible 4 games. but you're right though, Dougie's play was just brutal. that's how you can take an eye out. why not a game or 2 just for kicks?

I'd do it just to see HF go completely Dennis Rodman.

He's right. Everyone over reacting here. I see the kids playing better defense and I also see guys hurt and floating. Rask playing like a normal goalie and not a top 5 in the league. Questionable goals let in. He's fighting it. This team is out of sorts. No flow to their game right now. Smith needs to go back on the 3rd line. He plays better there. Solderberg coming on strong. That third line we had before Smith got promoted was playing like a 1st line. Put it back together.
Hamilton and Bartkowski playing more physical tonight. I like it. The more minutes the better. Good thing Chiarelli runs this team.

Yup, if it were anyone else it wouldn't even be given a second thought. Given that its our favorite little rat it is some kind of atrocity against humanity.
Kinda funny really.

Florida is just 7 points out of a playoff pot, largely because of Thomas.

Best thing to do whenever a thread pops up involving anything Bruins (good or bad) is to add it to your ignore list. They all turn into the same Bruins hatefest filled with trolling fans of a handful of teams. Not even worth the time to read through it.

I just added my two cents.There's a thread about Marchand's penalty, started by an admin no less.
On the game:
- Same old story. Good start, no finish. That penalty call on Paille was COMPLETE horse **** and seemed to suck the life out of them.
- That said, if we get a damn save from the guy in the cage we are in this game.
- The Kings hook, hold and interfere more than any team in the league, by a VAST margin. They play dead puck era hockey and the officials just turn their ****ing heads.
- Everyone in the top 6 not named David Krejci was AWFUL.
- The defense is a mess. Chiarelli needs to add a top 4 defensive defenseman, right ****ing now.
- Tuukka was dreadful. I have total faith in him BUT he is playing too much. 55-60 starts is enough. We seem afraid to play Johnson. IF we are afraid to play him he should not be here. Call up Svedberg, send Johnson down. IF he is picked up off waivers, find another plug to play in Providence.
- I thought Julien should have gone milk crate after that Boychuk hooking penalty.

Soderberg and Smith both under 14 minutes again tonight. Soderberg was the best forward on the ice IMO and Smith is your leading goal scorer and 2nd in points.
Kevan Miller is a better NHL defenseman than Adam McQuaid at this moment in time IMO.
Florek is pretty solid. He's like Caron with a motor.
