It’s not the 70s anymore dude
You don’t need to “put fear into anyone” to win hockey games now-a-days

I’d u dislike Krebs so much, u shouldn’t care if he gets hurt anyways 🤣🤣🤣

the coach said literally last night

if the hit is there, finish the hit and set the tone


even he thinks it's important to hit

What's so funny, I don't want Tage, Dahlin, Cozens, JJ, Quinn hurt by a cheap shot, or get taken out. Nothing Taco said was wrong.

someone has to win one

this is such a fallacy though. theres 1? 2? players left in the league who will cheap shot on purpose. and those guys dont give a (frank) who's going to punch them in the face afterwards either.

any cheapshot that happens would be mostly on accident so having to defend yourself after it wouldn't even cross their mind

Why so much?

>>> One option, may be one of the easiest options, would be to take Duclair and unload him somewhere for free, have someone take him off your hands, you might even have to pay given the scenario that the Florida Panthers are in (with their cap), to have someone bail you out in order to make that happen.

contextually maybe, but there's a real perception to how teams view each other and whether they believe they can take liberties or not. If you can make another team play timid, their game shrinks. If they don't think they'll be hit to make a play, their game will be much stronger. Especially if they're right.

For example, take a look at Mike McKenna's perception of Tage Thompson.

The deal is centered on cost savings for the Panthers. I assume that's the question you were asking.

I can think of two dozen teams that would jockey for his services. I doubt the Panther's would need to beg.

What? So Kucherov Stamkos Cernak Sergachev don't cheap shot? And that's one team. The days of needing a Knuckle Dragger are gone, but having a player that can actually play and take care of business is still a good thing to have.

Is there any defenseman in the league who is looking over his shoulder when the Sabres are on the forecheck? Absolutely not. They know they can take their time to make a pass and they're not going to get hit

Any fan of the game of hockey should repeat this like a robot. Finish your checks. This is a different universe of conversation than "we need a goon"

Good post

heard it right from the horses mouth.

Same guy will argue

That would have been a tough save for most goalies, perfectly placed.

Agreed, but teams have been shooting there consistently

He is coming off an Achilles injury, and how many teams can take on even $3M to their cap?

Yeah, definitely his weak spot. Think Dog said it, goes down to early.

this is a dramatically different point than trying to protect your players though

Rossi over quinn
