Dazzle Posted February 15, 2020 Share Posted February 15, 2020 (edited) 2 hours ago, DeNiro said: The league needed to be called out and I’m sure other players appreciate it. However that was for sure a suspension, no defending it. Three games may be a bit extreme but isn’t he a repeat offender? Marchand is also a repeat offender. And so is Kassian. To put it into perspective, Hansen got suspended for one game (~7 years ago) and the play was just him trying to catch the puck in the air, and he had no record previously. 3 games is most definitely "light" for a repeat offender.

Where's Wellwood Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 Will Kane get an additional suspension ( by either the league or the team) for publically calling the DOPS out and demeaning Parros by name? He's correct but usually the little guy doesn't get to say what he wants about his employers (and their associated departments) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VegasCanuck Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 4 hours ago, -Vintage Canuck- said: So, here's my take on this; #1. Kane's hit was absolutely worthy of a suspension. He clearly brought his forearm up and made the head the principle point of contact. He's lucky to only get 3 games considering his past history. #2. His statement about the consistency of the DPS, is not wrong. Its incredibly inconsistent and the NHL gives passes to many players. The cross check to the head by Chara should have been at least a game, and it would have been for any other team in the league. There are so many times where we see incidents, regardless of team, where it should be a suspension, and it doesn't even get a second look. He is absolutely correct that the system needs an overhaul and maybe an outside, independent board setting the fines and suspensions, wouldn't be a bad thing to try. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the easiest actually you seem to be forgetting that “higher education” came before he had his face rearranged in the nhl and his head met the ice several times guy was a nobody hockey player and a joke of a head of the DOPS. There have never been so much anger and confusion over the DOPS during his tenure you think thats just a coincidence? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And again it's not a one man operation so blaming Parros only is pointless. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUPERTKBD Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 I'm going to disagree with the majority here who are cheering Kane's response. It's one thing to call out inconsistencies, but it's quite another to accuse Parros of "bias". Kane clearly crossed a line there and if I were in charge, Kane would get 5 more games. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know the other 2 were also awful but Parros is not helping himself or the effectiveness of the role 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was supposed to make things better, and that hasn't happened. Also isn't he supposed to be in charge? So, he gets a good amount of the blame. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its cool he spoke out, but i agree he clearly deserves more as a result. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bias is generous. The NHL has crossed many lines and entirely deserves the criticism they are receiving. If they don't like it, they are more than welcome to clean up the corruption. Start by forcing referees to call an honest game and work from there. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would suggest that Parros unfairly targets the Sharks, or Kane himself. I know it's the cool thing to do to dump on the DoPS, but you're off base saying that GP is "biased", as is Evander Kane. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you would abuse power and position because someone hurt your feelings? Cool bro. Glad you aren’t in charge. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
