"Nice hit, eh."Scott just sees European skill guys like that one guy in Goon that everyone hates.

Hard to say because, and believe me when I say this, I dont know the times they sat there quietly after going down in a playoff game because their teammate was lazy. I just dont have any on the top of my head

Just got word that the NHL camps will begin again June 1... European players are coming back soon #breaking
What credibility?You'd think this is true, no? Otherwise, he'd be destroying his credibility. This is a verifiable fact.
I always give players the benefit of the doubt because, hey, everyone has bad days or is socially awkward, fans take things out of context etc... But this is kind of a strange and slightly concerning experience.

my guess is that in a regular season game, burns will get stuck on the ice for an extended shift
then when they finally barely clear the puck out of the zone, EK65 gets ready to jump on the ice for the change
but then Burns sees an opportunity to be aggressive for an odd-man rush, stays on the ice, and joins the rush, forcing EK65 to stay on the bench
unfortunately Burns is too gassed, gets the puck stolen and vegas goes the other way for the gwg while Burns injures his knee on the play
clock runs out and game is over
Burns is grimacing on the ice holding his knee
EK65 skates over, shaking his head, hands on hips, and berates Burns for not tagging him in, then kicks Brent's bad leg
EK65: "All you had to do was just tag me, Brent. My hand was there, just tag me. I knew your leg was bad, I was aware of that, just tag me. I could've won the game, but you're too damn selfish. And that's why you're sitting there with a bad leg. And that's why I kicked your leg out of your leg."

yeah but if what’s being conveyed is true the difference is Boyle came in undrafted and busted his ass to get to where he did. He was one of the most competitive and from what I’ve read one of the most respected leaders in the room.
What I’ve seen in a couple different interviews is that Erik doesn’t have a strong offseason workout regiment, he has quit on the team when the going gets tough, and that it seems he’s not well liked amongst the locker room. There’s a difference between being a vocal leader that’s respected and one that just alienates you’re teammates.
Chastising a teammate publicly is not a good sign of leadership. Brassard eludes to that:
If Hoffman had jumped Boyle or Pavelski the way he did to EK65 in FLA, I’m betting the team would have intervened unlike they did for Karlsson. That’s the unsettling part.
You are right though. EK isn’t going anywhere so they’re going to have to sort it out in the locker room
It's certain teams. The last I really remember not giving a rip physically was in 02-03, and this team is similar in a lot of ways. The next year they got Scott Parker and no Jody Shelley on Brad Stuart-type situations occured after.Sharks are notorious for not helping out when one of their players gets jumped. It' a surprise when they do come to someones aid. It's been an off and on problem for a couple decades.
Having a Ryans Clowe helps too. Miss this guy in teal.It's certain teams. The last I really remember not giving a rip physically was in 02-03, and this team is similar in a lot of ways. The next year they got Scott Parker and no Jody Shelley on Brad Stuart-type situations occured after.
90's Sharks teams never used to get bullied. Most post-lockout teams have stood up for one another, too.

It's certain players too. I mean even this year in the first game, Jumbo got into a mix to protect Sorensen. When Michalek got smoked by Morrow, no one stepped up, but that team had Clowe and Murray and Shelley (not sure if he played that game though).
Let's not also pretend that Hoffman jumped Karlsson and started throwing. He engaged him and immediate got separated by the refs. Kane was there immediately, ready to step in if needed, and so was Goodrow, PLUS the announcers also note how Dillon got involved verbally, probably saying to fight him instead.
I don’t recall seeing Pavs putting anyone on blast during a game over a mistake like EK did with Dillon and Brassard. Nothing wrong with chewing out a teammate but do it in the locker room. Let the coach handle it during gameplay.
