Gutsy win 

[oldnews]

Great to have the Habs still in it.  Not gonna lie - I like the Flyers, and love AV - but I'm still holding out for a Canucks Canadians SCF.

Bad take AV

I'd insert Weise with directions to have one of their D(Prov?) eat fibreglass. Hell with it..eye 4 an eye! Tired of Cdn teams gettin' shafted(lit & fig), & really admired how the Habs played yest!

Broken jaw, needs surgery...entire panel agrees it's far too light a suspension.

From a Philadelphia perspective, worth every 

Minute.  Gallagher was Montreal's  best.player and game driver.  How the league can defend this weak ass suspension  for a deliberate, predatory hit to the face of a player defies all logic.

I wonder what the ruling would have been if it had been Oulette on Coutourier

Anyone that watched the play and isn't a Philly supporter thinks it's too light. Niskanen has a history of hacking folks up with his stick. League cracks down on holding penalties but they let way too much stick work go. Cross checking in particular needs to be looked at more for penalties. Every team in the league has players working folks over with cross checks. But it's considered part of the game to an extent. Take a glove off the stick and kinda grab a guy is an instant 2 minute penalty regardless of how egregious the hold is. There's a disconnect there for me. Crack down on cross check penalties we'll see a decline in players like Niskanen taking advantage of the leniency on cross checks.

Remember Chara crosschecked Gallagher in the face earlier this year and only got a small fine?

What a $&!# suspension. Bush League DGAF about Habs or Canucks.
