That's the official explanation but i'd be so pissed if that's a legal way to score goals, push a dman into the goalie. Not a fan of the call. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

footsteps Posted May 14 Share Posted May 14 Seeing the reverse angle of the Marchand hit, I now understand what happened to him. Worthy of a penalty/fine/suspension, but he was knocked out by a standard "Marchand" play, so my sympathies for him are muted. I guess that makes me a 'bad' person.

grumpyone Posted May 14 Share Posted May 14 you're not going to believe who the assistant general manager of Florida is. That's right! It's Gregory Campbell. Sometimes it works out when you "know" people higher up. I predict that Florida gets to the final and probably wins their first cup. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, we need to be aware that Sam Bennett will be doing the same thing to our players too. So what happens when he “punches” Huggy in the face and knocks him out of the series and there is no penalty or suspension? I would have rather seen Bennett suspended to set the precedent and to avoid him doing it again to one of our guys. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I have muted sympathy for Marchand being taken down by the kind of dirty hit that he epitomizes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hate Marchand as much as the next guy but that needed to be a suspension, it sends the wrong signal to all the goons. Can’t comprehend how it wasn’t without acknowledging a conspiracy theory. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The league mandates their officials to manage games, and (as a result) series. Rather than just calling it as they see it, which is how it should be done, the refs try and manage games. Snd we see the mess that it creates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wing Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 Seriously what is goaltender interference anymore. Maybe we just push someone into Pickard tonight and see what happens. Seems like running interference with the goalie is fine now, and you don't get penalized for it anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
