Apples Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 Good THORNTON COULD FACE FINE AFTER SQUIRTING WATER ON SUBBAN - http://www.tsn.ca/nhl/story/?id=451809 He'll probably end up laughing over the 5k coffee change fine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twilight Sparkle Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 That should be a game. I am a Bruins fan after the Canucks but Thornton that was stupid, even if the game was over you never do that during a play. sure you do. do wut you gotta do to get under your opponents skin. better be able to back it up by finishing off the habs, which they'll do. no one bats an eye when the habs are trying to goon up the bruins, but once the B's return the favour, everyone loses their minds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SNACanuck Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 Thorton's little water antic deserves a fine at least. In light of the racist comments against Subban, having one of your players throw water at the guy sure doesn't teach the fans anything about respect. It's one thing to play hard/even goon it up on ice to a player you guys hate. Another to then go and throw things at him from the bench. Again, eh whatever its the Bruins. Nothing new here.

Merci Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 sure you do. do wut you gotta do to get under your opponents skin. better be able to back it up by finishing off the habs, which they'll do. no one bats an eye when the habs are trying to goon up the bruins, but once the B's return the favour, everyone loses their minds what'd the habs do.

CB007 Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 Have you ever been to Boston? seriously? did you follow bruins fans' reaction to the subban tweets after game 1? everyone condemned the few fools who said anything racist Look, I'm sure 90% of the folks in Boston are good people. We are talking about the 10%, versus the maybe 1% in other cities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RUPERTKBD Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 Before you go too far out of your way to defend Boston, maybe you should do a quick Boston history 101 google search. Those people have a long history of racism. Are they all that way? Of course not. But don't look foolish trying to say there are only a handful of racists who live there. No. Because that would be like saying that none of the rioters were Canuck fans I know it may sound overboard... but i think the guy should get a game. Kids don't do that! Don Cherry, what you gonna say about your coveted bruins now??? I doubt that he'll get a game. Most likely a fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUPERTKBD Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 Look, I'm sure 90% of the folks in Boston are good people. We are talking about the 10%, versus the maybe 1% in other cities. Is that a hard statistic, or an completely biased estimate based on your obvious hatred of a hockey team for having had the gall to beat the Canucks in a previous Cup final? Every time I talk to fans of other teams, they always seem to hate the Canucks and almost 100% of the time, it's because of Canuck fans. (just heard it again yesterday from a Kings fan) Every time I read a few pages of this thread, I'm reminded of why. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would make perfect sense that only you have access to it, since you made it up in the first place. "Big" maybe, but "data" is not a word I would use to describe your numbers. It would be more along the lines of "steaming pile".... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-DLC- Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 it was a few drops of water is it really worth a $10,000+ fine? I don't think it's about the end result, I think it's more about the action and how this isn't really what you should do in a game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bure010 Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 it was a few drops of water is it really worth a $10,000+ fine? it's not that it was water, it's the fact that he squirted him from the bench WHILE the play was going on. I think Subban had the puck too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
