I'm just so fed up with injuries. It's amazing ever since Tim wrote that story that they can't stay healthy more than two games. And now the refs take over the game.

Jagr is proving he just can't hack it in this league anymore. Can't keep his groin healthy

bad call. Brodeur fakes one
- ukeman


Not a bad call...Brodeur dove, but Briere made obvious contact with him in the crease. Regardless of Brodeur flopping, Briere was dumb.

Doesn't matter, he still made contact. Not allowed to do that in the crease, which is where Fatso was.

Lupul named alternate captain for Team Chara. They have those for the ASG?

They could have called Brodeur for diving, but the call on Briere was legit. Brodeur was in the crease, Briere isn;t supposed to touch him

For his sake, I hope Chara doesn't fall backwards over him.

That's fine. But if you know Brodeur gets calls like that, and I know that Brodeur gets calls like that, then Briere's an idiot for NOT knowing.

I'm turning off this poop. No effort from them, so I won't waste my time. Everyone enjoy your days!

Id say it probably didnt help that he came back a touch too early. Jagr needs to be shut down for a bit

It's safe to say both Lupul and Versteeg would have been better then Jagr

don't think he did it on purpose, trying to get to puck. Brodeur can stick his fat head out for that call any time someone's near him

I would have called both, personally. The NHL has probably told them to be more aware of the crease after the bruhaha with Lucic and Miller.

That draft thing where Kessel got picked last? How does that thing work anyway? Everybody plays in the game anyway, right?

He was trying to get to the puck, but he made no effort to avoid the goalie. I would have called both of them. Briere for interference and Fatso for diving.
