Knew it the second he went out
Just saying this yes Simmons popped him good but wtf is Klein doing just standing there and not fighting for his teammate ? This is what I mean when I say no heart in sports anymore

I'd wager if Klein's thumb wasn't broken, he'd have done a bit more.

It wasn't just the a Flyers fans. It was basically the fans of the 28 other teams as well.

It's amazing. Everyone around the world wants these head injuries to be taken seriously. Then, when someone gets sucker-punched in the jaw and goes down, everyone calls him a diver.

I mean, wtf?

 

[The Gloaming]

Anything on the severity? Guessing we won't be getting many updates until he resumes skating.

Can there be any doubt that is Klein did not have a broken thumb he would have gone after Simmonds? Klein has always shown his willingness to fight if necessary. Expecting him to fight with a broken finger is just not realistic.

 

[DudMan28]

Time for Yandle to step up. **** Simmonds and Philly.

My thoughts as well. If he was healthy, he would've kungfued his ass.

 

[HatTrick Swayze]

It's just ridiculous that good hockey hits like Johansen/Hickey get suspensions, and this doesn't.

Gonna do my best to leave it at that.

Agreed 100%. He has never been shy.

Really selling that dive. Just like a good captain should!

Huge loss. Hopefully he takes the time needed to recover from it and doesn't try to rush back because of what time of year it is.

 

[BarbaraAlphanse]

Good thing I sold my Rangers Devils tickets for tonight and bought Rangers flyers tickets for Sunday. There should be some retribution.

 

[gorangers0525]

Absolutely ridiculous. I'd like to see the "dive" that all idiots in the main board would pull after a straight left to the jaw.

 

[Hockeyplayer99]

Retribution, this is AV Rangers not Torts Rangers. Only retribution will be shying away from contact. We will scratch Mcilrath and play Megna on defense.

Klein can't really fight w a busted thumb . Plus that is showing heart even playing w the injury

 

[Oscar Lindberg]

Well this should be good. Let's see how much of a ****show the D is when he's out. The team is basically ****ed. If Nash and him are out long term we might as well just start selling pieces. I wonder if this will effect whether or not they trade Yandle....

 

[LieutenantLackluster]

Simmonds is legit scum of the earth piece of ****. The league is a joke for not suspending him.

 

[RangerBoy]

The Rangers never disclose injuries on twitter. You know they are seething. How many times has Sather called Bettman to complain in the last few days?

 

[RempireStateBuilding]

Simmonds is legit scum of the earth piece of ****. The league is a joke for not suspending him.

They want everything else removed from the game, except stuff like this apparently.

 

[OrbitalDynamics]

Alan Vigno won't allow any of that.

I want to know why Tanny Toffness wasn't smearing Delzaster or Ghostberry?

They clip the Captain and there isnt any pushback? AV and his aloof demeanor,what a kitty.

 

[Pavel Buchnevich]

Simmonds should have to answer for this on Sunday.

 

[ColonialsHockey10]

As usual, this team gets absolutely shafted by the officials. It's always something, either the team is playing like ****, the franchise is suffering from awful luck, or the league is screwing them.

Carl Hagelin accidentally gets his elbow up on Alfredsson and gets 3 ****ing playoff games, yet Simmonds is dressed and playing the next day.

 

[The Gloaming]

Simmonds should have to answer for this on Sunday.

Tanner won't do anything, and we all know where McIlrath will be on Sunday (hint: it's a box). So nothing will happen. Maybe a face wash from Zucc.

you are correct, sir. AV's Rangers do not settle scores.

 

[Kaapo di tutti capi]

you are correct, sir. AV's Rangers do not settle scores.

From the way they've played this season, I think they've spent too much time going to "Scores".

 

[Glen Sathers Cigar]

Good job NHL DoPS. Really showing they care about player safety.

Concussion from a sucker punch, Simmonds gets no discipline. What a joke.
