alt kilgore Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 You'll be gone soon, Willie. Cool it with the blind homer stuff. This isn't the first time he's stoked a flame war. He does it for fun and giggles my guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I.Am.Ironman Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 Honestly Burrows probably deserved a penalty.. 5 and a game is a bit of a stretch though I think. He shouldn't get suspended. They may have given him the misconduct to prevent anybody taking runs at him. Sometimes an accidental high stick leads to a 4 min PP.. I kind of see the same thing in the Burrows incident... Didn't see Bieksa's or Jones on Vrbata. I don't think Burr will get suspended. If he does.. Byfuglien better get SIGNIFICANTLY more for what he did tonight.

Quoted Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 Don't get caught reviewing the "blimp view" replay where it looks like a murder. The up close and in person angle shows a very gentle nudge that fell Gaustad like a sack of potatoes. No, I agree that that there was clear embellishment. Burrows wasn't totally innocent either. I thought 2 and 2 at the time, but will accept that on the ice, it might have looked worse hence the 5 min. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coconuts Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 Gif of the Burr hit is here (sorry, can't seem to post it here for whatever reason):https://twitter.com/ahs24/status/583098252267925504That's garbage. Skated right into Burr. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue & Green Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 the replay is on Sportsnet right now for anybody that missed it I just might watch that game again, skip the first period though. lol Three 2nd lines and a 3rd. The 3rd is the 3rd. LOL - Well, we have 4 good lines to roll, any one of which can be the determinant factor in winning a game. We wanted secondary scoring and now we got it in spades. Nsh 3 stars... 1. Fisher 2. Franson 3. Bonino lol? Homer-vision alive and well everywhere. At the end of regulation time, I have never been so thrilled getting one friggin point, getting 2 points was beyond the moon. What a gutsy team effort!

DeNiro Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 Neither does this forum about the refs If you think this level of officiating is acceptable then you must not remember the glory days of hockey. The game that we're seeing now is a blatant joke where refs try to manage games for entertainment purposes. I miss the good old days when if a player took a penalty, you knew exactly what he was being called for. More rules now have only created more confusion and more grey area.

PhillipBlunt Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 I really hope Burrows gets hit in the exact fashion Gaustad did so u and all the other people pissing themselves and jumping down my throat for saying he deserved the 5 can all prove me right about the general hypocrisy that exists here lol IF Burrows got hit in this fashion you'd be singing a very different tuneAw.

WilliesStache14 Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 lol. There's a difference between wearing homer glasses and being blind and needing glasses. The player skated into Burrows. His head was still down. It was not a targeted head hit. It was not predatory. It was a reactionary shoulder brace to make sure it was the other player that went down. At most a 2 min. penalty for a little extra follow through. The refs did not even warrant it a penalty until the player laid there to make sure for 20 seconds. How do you explain that? Guy selling it to try and get the call, is it bs? sure have players on our team done it as well? yes it goes both ways Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canuck73_3 Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 please strenghten yours more after your brilliant opening argument of "stfu" Judging your history of posts it was the nicest thing I could say that wouldn't net me a warning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BI3KSA- Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 Neither does this forum about the refs While I totally agree this forum complains a lot about refs and many times its unwarranted, this is not one of those times.

SergioMomesso Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 I guess that stud McMillan will slot in Thursday. Oh great. What's the deal with call ups? Are we out of them until post season? Baertschi is looking good since his trade Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redhdlois Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 Gaustad didn't get hit. It was his change of direction that initiated contact. I've run out of 'thumbs' up' so I will just quote your comment...... the evidence is in the clip......'nuff said Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WilliesStache14 Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 Yeah, it derails threads. Hijacking threads for attention is basically trolling, whether intentional or not. lol the only thing that derails the thread is the crybabies who can't handle any objective comment whatsoever and go apecrap over it, that's what starts the flaming. Burrows made contact with the guys head, sure he partially got his shoulder first but it was still a hit to the head. Similar hits have gotten 5 mins before, especially ever since the rule change Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-DLC- Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 It was a collision, not a hit. And it was Gaustad who turned toward Burr and changed his angle...also did a funky lowdown stride deal. Totally ran into Burr and yeah, Burr made sure he braced so Gaustad bounced off him instead of him taking the impact. Exactly how it happened. Burr didn't seek this guy out or even HIT him. What a crock of crap. Not long before the crowd was chanting "Refs suck". So, seems they responded and tried to make some brownie points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
