I thought Grabo was going to get the usual Leaf screw job to be honest with you guys...

But fortunately Shanahan sent a clear message today...

The NHL doesn't condone biting.. but if you mouth gouge a player, smother his nose and mouth.. then start neck cranking him.. then they will find your teeth marks inconclusive.

The message is don't put your fingers and hands in another players face and mouth if you don't want to get bitten.

It was not the only face crank of the night Bourque cranked back orr's head to.. but fortunately the NHL disciplinary punished him severely instantly and meted out their justice, accordingly.

The man grabbing Pacs was Liles and he did do a piss poor job.. but I still don't think it was his fault.. but would love to see him be the next man traded... lousy defender with very little offensive upside...

Meh...he'll get bought out with a compliance buyout if he doesn't pick his poop up. We have guys contributing more since his return from the concussion, at a fraction of the cap hit. He's always been poor defensively, but now he's even a giveaway machine and just plainly looks like he's always a step behind the play in his judgements.

Just so I understand what you're saying, to paraphrase:

"Whoever was not pulling the third man, who had Grabovski in a headlock, off of Grabovksi, it's his fault this happened". Is that about right?

Yes. That's exactly what I said.

Unbelievable. He jumps in as a third man in, and gets floored with one punch in doing so. I'm pretty sure that's not how coming to your captain's aid is supposed to be like.

You say the Leafs usually get screwed (I'm guessing unjustly) only to show a video of Orr punching a guy who still has his gloves on?

You forgot the part about the guy just face cranked him.. if he wanted to protect Gionta.. he could've just grabbed Orr from behind and tangled his arms.. neck cranking must be part of the Habs training program.. he got what he deserved.. don't neck crank a guy if you don't want to get punched in the face.

Simple even a Philly fan could understand.

When you jump in as a third man, you're already engaged in the fight.

Who had just seconds earlier raped him from behind?

I don't like the whole "the NHL is against us". That's been the Flyer's fans motto for years. There is no bias against the Leafs. But Bourque deserved to get clocked.

Agreed P Zub fully every time he is out there I know we are getting hemmed in our zone because he can't even do the basics like a high hard one off of the glass to clear the zone..

but I still think we can get a pick for him.. someone might look for an offensive D for the play-off run.. a second rounder would be nice but it will be more like a 4th to 7th
