Suspend that rat ****

 

[Micklebot]

Well that sucks. Hope he's back on time for the playoffs.

Claesson, looks like it's your turn to shine

 

[Sens of Anarchy]

Johnny Hockey missed quite a few games early in the year from a slash to the hand. No call. No suspension.

 

[Senscore]

Crosby clearly just seeing how far the NHL will go to cover his ass at this point.

I wonder who's eye he'll take out next game?

 

[L'Aveuglette]

No Methot for the rest of the season, and possibly part of the playoffs(if not all).

Help.

And also,

F U Crosby.

Crosby is a POS. There was no need to slash like that at the blueline. I hope he gets his bell rung again soon. "just playing with an edge" according to TSN.

As an aside, Boro was in this game, yet an opposition player took liberties with one of our core players and caused an injury. I thought his presence stopped that kind of thing!! I'm so confused.

Not only that, but no one really did anything except for a face wash and stern talking to.

Well, to be fair, Smith tried to go after him but the refs stepped in, and it's hard for anyone to go after the golden boy in this league since they'd surely be tossed out.

Well Crosby didn't really goon it up. Smith got into a tussle with him after a stoppage in play and Phaneuf went back and forth barking but other than that not much.

Well the guys who should have done something (the refs) were too busy sniffing Sid's jock to do anything.

As for Sens players? They wanted to win the game and they did. Best revenge possible. Although I wouldn't have been unhappy if someone had beaten seven shades of **** out of Crosby.

 

[Micklebot]

taking shots on the need for toughness as a deterrent aside, I thought Boro had a strong game.

Kelly on the other hand...

That's Boro's job apparently because he's supposed to stand up for his teammates.

I think if the score had gotten out of hand either way, we might have seen something happen.

As it is, it's too tight to lose sight of the big picture.

 

[TrueGrit]

Had my index finger crushed at the tip and almost completely severed a couple years ago, took months to heal.

Kelly on the other hand...

I wouldn't say that. He had an average game, which is a lot better than how I thought he would do.

 

[Gil Gunderson]

God damnit. One game away from a full line-up.

 

[Flamingo]

Well Crosby didn't really goon it up. Smith got into a tussle with him after a stoppage in play and Phaneuf went back and forth barking but other than that not much.

Slew-footed Karlsson in the corner, puck not near them.

My point isn't that Crosby gooned it up.

My point is that people have said things like: "do you want Marchand injuring Anderson without Boro there to deter that?"

So Boro is in this game and Methot gets a dirty slash that ends his regular season. Boro being in the lineup...

does

nothing

to

deter

people

hurting our players.

If you're going to have a goonish defenseman on your team he should at least go full Carkner and beat the **** out of Crosby or another star on their team.

 

[Senscore]

God damnit. One game away from a full line-up.

 

[Ygg]

Broke my finger in 2 different places and lacerated a tendon at the same time last summer while doing a dunk at Skyzone. Still unable to bend the tip, still lacking full grip on weights and such at the gym.

For the record, the dunk was freaking amazing

 

[TB1299]

They should bring up Chabot.
Lets get the party started early!

 

[NyQuil]

I wonder what Methot said to Crosby when he grabbed him by the jersey.

He was so calm about it.

 

[Sens of Anarchy]

Slashes to the hands are pretty common place. Its an unfortunate injury. We will miss Methot big time.

I understand. That's why I rather have Claesson on the team instead of Boro because his supposed toughness doesn't deter anything. He doesn't police **** and is more of a detriment than anything IMO
