No slash on that play but double minor. While I'm at it if you draw any blood on a high stick it's a double minor but you can pretty much Tomahawk a man's face if he doesn't bleed it's only two minutes stupid rule in all games

How is that 4 minuets? Bullpoop NHL officiating!

Not an intentional attempt to injure = 2 minute penalty. The "blood rule" is an unwritten bullpoop rule.

One hand on the stick same logic if the stick breaks it's a penalty it is what it is.

That's 13.

Yeah I understand the high-sticking rule it's just a guy can get crushed and lay there on the ice and get two minutes but he can get tapped one handed in the mouth and get a bloody lip and I'll give four minutes he's just a stupid rule in that regard

I guess you missed the blood coming out of his vagina

Have to think the Rangers going to score at least one on the four minute

I agree your right there's no consistency at all. But he did give him a good shot with the stick, just sayin.

Look out for Laddy Daddy.

Yeah was a shot

I hate to agree with you Bob, but i have to. If the stick comes up into the face and draws blood, it's 4 minutes. One hand, 2 hands, irrelevant, it's a penalty.

Great pass from JT! Shorty!

I was too excited.

That looked good to me.

He didn't include himself. It was a players only meeting. The best part was Howie said something like "You aren't serious?" and Butch immediately said he was and they all needed to go out and get drunk to loosen up.

Damn! Might have flagged you by mistake. Sorry. Mods please ignore.
Those teams played in a different time when training camp was when the team got back together to drink beer and talk about fishing trips. Great team building, but didn't get as ready for the season.

That looked good to me.

I agree.

Its exactly at this point in a game that I am ecstatic that Crappy isn't the coach!

Isn't part of a defenseman's job to protect the goalie? That's the third time Griess has gotten railed because an Islanders defenseman hit a Rags forward into him. Can't say that's a great plan of action

These refs are brutal. Kreider should have gotten a penalty for cross checking wow!
