Yeah can't really like biting.

On the other hand, why should he put up with that crap from someone 3 inches taller and 20 lbs heavier? As for Gorges saying Grabo should drop the gloves and fight...

why? Why would he be obligated to fight ever; especially in those circumstances.

Pacioretty would not have to look far if he really wanted a fight. Maybe HE should man up instead of going after one of the smaller Leafs.

Actually, Grabovski was well on his with Prust when Pacioretty grabbed him from behind. Think Grabo might've even landed one.

all this female doging by the habs and habs fans are doing is hilarious. Here cry about something real - your team didn't show up on home ice against one of their biggest rivals. They had no heart and no skill and when the score was out of control they tried to stir poop up but couldn't even do that because they are small and don't have the stones to do it without slashing, double teaming or jumping guys from behind.

If he does it cause of an anti-leafs biased and nothing to do with biting.

Exactly.... you know since the league didnt suspend a player with clear concrete video evidence of doing such and none exists here.

All we have is a whiner. There is no evidence.

OK... If you say so. Video is only concrete evidence, and it's not conclusive. End of story.

Like I said, if there is a mark are they going to take dental impressions to prove it was Grabo?

you guys are funny

take your own arm.. right now.. and press it into your mouth

then take the other arm, press it into your mouth and bite down

then compare the two.

I think he clearly bit him.

I dont think he'll be suspended.

Orr and the Marchment-esque knee however...

LM he bit him.. we can talk about evidence all we want but we all know it.

he deserves a suspension and it will have nothing to do with the jersey he wears.

there is no place for biting in hockey. period.

That actually true? Never looked it up. Pretty sure they just kinda scored at will. Hall, Ebs and Nuge draw penalties lots cuz dey fast n slick.

We need some size, grit and TRUCULENCE on our top 6.

- sanfordnson

Don't have the assists, but they all played together so you cna make an assumption, they raped on the PP.

Eberle 8
Schultz 7
Hall 9 (of 14)
NH 3 (of 8)
Hartikainen 5

nvm found it, Schultz had 18 PPA hoyl (frank)

gonna come right out and say it

grabo gets suspended

then leaf fans cry about how he only got suspended because he was a leaf

proving why other fan bases think we are homers when it comes to our own players.

Dude, heat of battle, try to restrain yourself in that position. I tell you what, have the adrenaline going, have a buddy grab you front the front and the other from behind with force around your mouth and nose, get back to me when it happens.

edit: I don't care if he gets suspended but there is more to it then just getting bit, I want to see an explanation from the league afterwords about the choking involved.

the NHL has doctors at every game right?

they would fit the bill of a medical examiner

and they wouldnt be doing their job unless they went and looked at it.

take a step back and think about it without leaf fan bias.

I'm gonna pass. Thanks for the offer though

Seriously though, if it's shown conclusively that he bit him, then he'll deserve a game or two. There still be serious imprint from how forcibly Max was grabbing him.

As you said, you can tell the difference though.

Hardly conclusive but their 5 on 5 play at the NHL level has been underwhelming. Its why I would have loved to see Jagr or Whitney brought in. Teach em how to score all the time.

after you...


I once knew a guy that bit himself and blamed someone else.... because there was a mark he got in trouble. But EVERY single person other than the guy that got bit said that is didn't happen.... other guy still got in trouble.

Ignoring the evidence seems to always work. Always get it right.

You know it. It was a great (frank)ing game to watch. The excuses were plenty, from Leafs playing dirty to the refs (frank)ing the game up. The Leafs need only 1 more win out of the last 3 Habs/Leafs games for me to finally win back some of my money from those clowns over there.

Exactly and not one penalty for it... I wouldn't trust the Ref.. but by the video replay it seemed the Ref looked at his hand and told Pac to leave the ice.. so not sure if he bought the made up story...

Again. If a bite mark is what does it for a suspension, then Pax needs one for his wrestling move. Forcing your forearm around the face of another players and pulling back as hard as you can shouldn't be allowed. It goes both ways.

I mean, by the way that you're preaching, it sounds like Pax could try and fit a few fingers in Grabo's mouth, and if there are some bite marks, Grab gets the suspension. That's bullpoop.

thats what i was asking earlier.

if thats the case the leafs could argue bias then.

but arent they there to determine concussions this year? i thought they made that change. a third party doctor has to be at games to allow a player to go back on the ice after a concussion scare no?

He is though.

Whole team has no cohesiveness right now. Need something to make them play as a unit. Kruger said some poop about "adapting to the other teams style", which i hope was a mistake because they should playing their own system and making other teams do the same.
