So, for S&G's, I googled "Tim Peel Sucks", and the top link was an old Bleacher Report column titled, "NHL Referee Tim Peel Should Be Immediately Fired After Brutal Blown Calls."
- Doc_Sarcasm


In addition to utterly ignoring the Peel debate over the past year, the League hasn't fired a referee since 2009, when former official Dean Warren filed a still-pending lawsuit against the NHL regarding his dismissal.

What's to say that they can't fire Peel anyway? Well, like Warren was, he's a member of the National Hockey League Officials Association; for the NHL, firing him would just be another one-way ticket to a high-profile court appearance.

Can't fire a union member? Do tell.

Why won't you ever use chrome? Seems like such a serious stance to take against an internet browser.

My neighbor just called asking if I wanted to come over and check out the game with him...

If I wanted to watch with people who didn't know that much about hockey, I would have kept my season tickets.

I love Clement.

I hate homers. Until I realized that I either have our homers.. or the homers like Doc and Eddie.

Yeah, one of their better periods of the series... looked a lot like period 2 from last night.
- Tomahawk


Yup. This series was due for a white knuckler. Tonight might be it.

Jackson is far worse than Clement, imo.

Pleasantly surprised at the first period. Flyers can't stray from physical game. Hopefully we see more calls being made either way

Almost every American home broadcast is incredibly biased.

Canadian broadcasts are much better.

Coatesy did call out Rinaldo for a dive when he took that stick to the foot.

Rinaldo is a joke. Why can't these players be fined for that crap. Disgrace

If the Flyers can get the lead, the Rangers will really start to feel the pressure. They are a team built to win now. A first round exit would be a disappointment.
