Mike Augello: Rookies rally to clinch playoff spot, Sparks recalled; Leafs vs Blue Jacket

I wonder if Willy's statue will be half as beautiful as he is

Would love to see Connor Brown get a point and Zaitsev get two points tonight.

That would mean the Leafs have 5 of the top 10 rookie scorers this year.

Is there a Playoff Schedule released yet?....

Even a rough one for the days?

Yeah, but I misspelled Zaitsev's name in the other blog.

It's unbelievable that the Oilers could win their division.
Hope they do.

The league has to step in and do something about the "incidental" contact skaters are having with goalies. It's goaltender interference, likely intentional most of the time, and would have cleared benches and gotten the offenders face beaten in back in the days when dinosaurs roamed the earth.

Cool

Meh.
A penalty was called.
Goalies have to toughen up.
Too protected as is

Oop's accidently flagged this post, plus you're not allowed to be first....

BULLSH!T!!!!!!!

Sestito has played in 12 games this year to date. This 6'5", 240 lb ape ran the goalie with intent. 2 minute penalty is a bullsh!t call, and sending out a tough guy to fight this gorilla does nothing. Here is a more equitable solution:

1) 5 min major and ejection (suspension in this case would benefit Pens)
2) Pens forced to change goalies and use their backup for remainder of game.

Note to Leafs:

Not worth scrapping with their goon as retribution, much more equitable to take pay back vs. one of their star players. Next time Pens are wondering why Crosby is a target, look down at the bench at the Cro Magnon Man named Sestito.

Good Lord, the Jays and Rays are poor teams

Are we allowing canucks fans onto our bandwagon?

Agreed, Jays hitting with their Louis Vuittons instead of their Louisville Sluggers.

One Solution:

five minute major,
Offending team has coach and goalie ejected from game.
