Shift-4 Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 Needs an extra game for sheer stupidity. I just don't get what he was thinking when Orlov was that vulnerable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peaches5 Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 It should have been much more than that. Orlov could have snapped him neck there and been dead on the ice. Before he moved and grabbed his head I was like damn he might be dead. Should be 10+. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WHL rocks Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 Should have been 3 to 5 games. Don Cherry made a fool of himself after the game yesterday, he showed both Orpik and Orlov and said it was their fault, not White skating 50 feet charging at Orpik or Bellmare for hitting Orlov from behind, then he showed OV hitting someone and said it was a dirty hit. lol. Get that fool off the air CBC, in most countries when your grandpa gets old and senile and starts talking crazy stuff you send him to the old folks home, in Canada we put him on national tv and laugh at him. What a mean nation we are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RUPERTKBD Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 I thought he might get 2 or 3, but AFAIK he's a first time offender and it's a playoff game (likely the Flyers' last, the way things are going) so I'm okay with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the only problem with the hit was that Bellemare tried to lay a huge hit from behind on a dude. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im just saying from the leagues perspective, playoff games are of a greater punishment to the player. Im not necessarily agreeing with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
