Meh.. Kronwall got a penalty for hitting precious Matthews...

When he didn't have the puck.

Last I checked, that's called interference, and is a penalty.

players do that all the time tho.. they collide before going into the boards to battle for possession.. Kronwalls hit was dangerous for sure, but it wasn't really boarding and nor was it typical interference that they call.

Interference like this one should always be called. If it's not called, it's 'cause the ref failed at their job.

He hit Matthews high, hard, and in a dangerous spot on the ice.

I honestly thought for sure Matthews was hurt..

I love everything about Matthews, but i wish he'd learn how to fight in the off-season with like.. GSP or something. Then come back and beat the brakes off the first guy who (frank)s with him.

poop, the oilers are actually good.

yeah.. Hitch is trying to coach some more young guys up.. Puljujarvi might end up being a significant piece. Yamamoto too perhaps?

This is Pujus last chance....Hitch asked for him to be brought up so he can work with him....Yamo has more hurdles to overcome....some time in Bakersfield will be good for him

still pretty bad due to the cap retention

the talent they got back has been fine
- daeth

So we’d be better off with Kessel, and whoever we would have drafted with the 2nd plus whoever we would have taken instead of Matthews

Than

Freddie, kapanen, Matthews and 1.2 million retained

Styles didn’t mesh it happens....Hall and Drai on the other hand would have been very potent

Yeah, same. Glad he was just winded.

That'd be great. female dog slap the first guy that looks at him wrong into oblivion.

I really like Khaira. He plays hard hockey. I don't think he's overly talented or anything, but he's a guy I would really like on the Leafs.

Karlsson fails miserably defensively on two straight goals and then he scores right after.

San Jose should just make him into a forward. He's killing them defensively.

(frank)ing bum Tarasenko!

He has earned the top 6 minutes he is getting now....he would fit in quite well with your Leafs....cheap contract and works his tail off

He would have looked so good in detroit..

No way this should be a goal in the Anaheim game.

Anaheim rightly challenges it and it's still called a goal? Ridiculous.
