GDT: HFBoards GDT | 2/17/20 - I can count todays games on one hand.

Kuch showed he can blaze.

And to be fair to Mack, was tired when he gave that up. Still bad though.

Well then maybe he shouldn’t run around hogging the puck trying to do it all himself in ot. Lol. Gotta be smarter.

 

[Master P]

Yep that's a dive:

Did you post the wrong gif by accident?

 

[BruinsBtn]

Stamkos goes looking for the guy, sees him, turns into the other guy, dives like he was shot and then looks at the ref. If anything, he should have gotten called for embellishment and I won't be surprised if he's fined tomorrow. It was diving 101.

 

[JoVel]

Yep that's a dive:

I'm not sure what you're looking at. Stamkos is not even looking at the guy and isn't bracing for contact, then suddenly sees someone in front of him.

But I mean I guess you're the expert, being a Bruins fan.

Go ahead and consider me and expert. He has no right to that ice. I'm not the one crying a river about penalties. The refs got that one right.

And yeah, he sees a guy and turns into that guy and then dives. Take off your homer glasses.

The guy’s had like 5 anti-Lightning comments in a row that no one has agreed with. I’d take it with a grain of salt.

They need to make reverse hits illegal over the summer. I've seen so many this season and they're incredibly dangerous.

 

[Muffin]

Avs got bailed out all night by the Refs but it couldn’t save them.

Lmao, explain this. Literally cannot find a more obvious penalty.

 

[Pucker Factor 10]

When you watch games like this, I just don't understand how anyone could not be a hockey fan. This game was a strong candidate for Game of the Year so far.

 

[BruinsBtn]

lmao!

Stevie wonder in the house people!

If you don't see the blatant dive there, you don't know hockey.

Are you actually joking?

 

[BruinsBtn]

What? That's not even a reverse hit. A reverse hit is when the guy is not expecting it. Palat is trying to throw a hit, Mackinnon just braces himself and he gets the visor in the face.

No, they don’t. If you’re going to finish your check, prepare to get a reverse hit. Its called hockey.

"Turns into that that guy"
He was already going in that direction before he turned his head You take away your dumbness glasses or whatever the hell you're wearing.

I agree.

 

[Papa Francouz]

Thanks for the fantastic game, Bolts bros. I kind of hate you all now, but Goddamn was that an amazing game of hockey.

Even if it was (which he wasn't), it doesn't matter. He's not entitled to that ice. If anything, he interfered with the Colorado player more than the opposite. He just took a huge dive.

Lmfao, this is post just made my day.

How hard to you have to be triggered to want a clean hit removed from the game. Not to mention a hit where the vulnerable player ends up getting the better of the player making the predatory play.

 

[Pucker Factor 10]

It'll be a miracle if he doesn't have a concussion after that.

 

[JoVel]

I don't see how "being entitled" to that ice matters. Stamkos was not looking where he was going and then ran into a wall. I'm not going to argue about penalties but he wasn't expecting any contact there and thus fell down.

 

[Tofveve]

It's pretty rare for a big matchup like this one to live up to the hype. This one lived up to it and more.

 

[BruinsBtn]

He looked right at the guy well before they made contact. Turned hard so he ran right into the guy, flopped and then looked right at the ref.

And if you don't understand how it's determined who is determined to what ice, then you don't understand interference.

 

[JoVel]

Reverse hits are awesome. I don't know why anyone would want to ban them. Palat is quite often the guy dishing them out but this time got caught himself.

 

[Muffin]

Pretty funny all the TB fans whine about the refs but crickets when I posted all the penalties they got away with

I don't know hockey, neither does my neighbor Greg Louganis, but he does know diving. He told me that was not a dive.
