You're welcome to have your own politics, but this take is hilarious. His nickname isn't "The Not That Great One"
One of these days, his records will become obsolete and the Hall of Fame will be filled with young stars who make his achievements look small. And all he will have to show for himself is a gambling controversy, a mediocre coaching stint, and this.

Wait a minute. THIS is the Draisaitl hit everyone’s talking about? This is a 2 minute penalty max. I love that we are growing the game but how many casuals are actually thinking this is “suspension” worthy. Take the penalty call, grow up and move on.

I'm sorry but that just isn't roughing. That's an unfortunate hockey hit, not enough for a penalty.

canucks fans calling this a bye having to cope with it realistically being them who should be down 3-2. I'd be nervous

NHL margins are just that close folks. 2 minutes and some change are the difference between 3-1, 2-3, and 1-3. As predicted - the closest series of them all

pound for pound, this is one of the worst regular season games I've seen as far as officiating. not that it really determined the outcome, but it's hard to watch

Hynes not starting Fleury tonight is the penultimate asshat move of his career. Fire him asap @mnwild

You might want to check out NSH/CAR heading to OT right now. Aho & Necas are flat out fun 3 on 3.

Might be in the minority here, but I think what we're seeing is a toe-pick at the worst possible timing that leads to the leg swinging out of control as he tries to regain balance. I don't think this is manslaughter or worthy of adding further grief to this incident.

Say what you will about former #Preds GM David Poile; he didn't miss the home opener tonight, and the man is in the stands with the fans. I happen to think that is massively cool.

(embellishment is a penalty)
Just for public record, Jeremy Lauzon's stick doesn't touch Conor Sheary here. Full on embellishment.

my favorite part about analytical models is coming back to them when they're inevitably wrong. not because data sucks, but because it's what makes sports great
