How does Knies become a top 6 winger? Dude was touched by Bennett and was never seen again ๐Ÿ˜†๐Ÿ˜†
At least Robertsons injuries looked legit.


Edit: love the NHL 23 rating system ๐Ÿ˜†

Hopefully people dont give up on Robertson. He has had nothing but bad luck and even thou it seems like he's been around a while he is just 21. He is a good skater and has an elite shot and if he can get a constant string of games together and get more experience and confidence he will be fine imo.

It's about time that he catches a break. He does have talent and he's still young enough. Leafs are lucky to be having two young wingers on entry level contracts, while Bunting takes his circus act elsewhere. I'd rather have Bertuzzi than Bunting, if the cash was similar. They also need to get Accari and Schenn tied up. Not sure if we can get O'Reilly back in the fold. $5M X 3 maximum. If it's more than that, I guess he leaves.

That video is a good example of why the NHL, DOPS and officiating are a joke. Nothing to do with the leafs. Just the inconsistencies throughout.

NHL parades players around all season, playing games in other parts of the world to 'grow the game' and then when the stakes are highest, undo all the work and go back to putting knuckle draggers like Bennett on a pedestal.

I think any time a player gets a legit injury from an intent to injure it should be a suspension.

If he doesn't get hurt there, whatever let is slide if you must but thats a suspension.

I get being upset about Bennettโ€ฆ but he can actually play.

Notwithstanding that he shouldโ€™ve got clipped for that for a game or so.

ehh...questionable play. He isn't a superstar or anything.

But I digress. This isn't about Bennett. This is about the Pat Maroon's and etc.

I feel it's gotta be about anybody who does anything with intent to injure. What makes Jamie Benn's intent to injure different from Bennett on Bunting? He clearly tries to decapitate him.

Play hard. Hit hard. But do it right.

A lot of classless bs being let go by the group that was made to do one freaking thing: protect players.

Glad Benn finally got his. Still pissed about his weasel bs on Matthews in November.

It really is hard to understand the inconsistencies in their rulings.

Despite what appears to be similar acts, rulings are wildly different.

It's hard to not believe conspiracy theories.

Everything needs to be approved by Shanahan anyway, so he's basically the GM now.
