Popular Post -AJ- Posted October 13, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted October 13, 2022 "A good penalty" - Anthony Stewart https://www.sportsnet.ca/nhl/article/oilers-darnell-nurse-fined-by-nhl-player-safety-for-check-on-canucks-burroughs/ Quote Edmonton Oilers defenceman Darnell Nurse has been fined by the league for a play on Vancouver Canucks' Kyle Burroughs on Wednesday night. The NHL Department of Player Safety assessed Nurse a $5,000 fine — the maximum allowed by the collective bargaining agreement — for interference on Burroughs at the end of the first period. 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nucker 67 Posted October 13, 2022 Share Posted October 13, 2022 That's the problem with the Canucks - other teams know all they have to do to win is bully and play physical. Canucks have no pushback, and I thought they addressed with by bringing in Joshua, Lazar and Stillman, but maybe not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Fanuck Posted October 13, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted October 13, 2022 Here's my rant: Fines should be a meaningful % of player salary otherwise it's a joke and absolutely ZERO deterrent for future infractions. Accumulations of fines should result in automatic suspensions regardless if the infraction already had a suspension connected to it or not. If the NHL/NHLPA truly believed in player safety they would agree to the aforementioned changes to the 'CBA' instead of protecting player's salaries over and above actual safety. Rant over. 1 1 6 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree we have to be tougher but we also need to pick our spots. Fighting all game doesn’t do much for us either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anybody would take a guy like Nurse on their team any day, stop whining that he was too rough with one of our guys, it's a game of intimidation and momentum. Again, this team has no balls and we get pushed around so get ready for another season of that because I know I am. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He quickly realized he has no insight into the game he was paid to play, so he just says things that will get him attention, even if the attention is negative. There's certainly a precedent for that (e.g., Steve Simmonds). Personally, I would hate to live my life where the object of my profession was to be as inaccurate as possible to gain attention/followers. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nurse is an intimidating player and if you don't think so well then I can easily guess neither of you had played any competitive puck in your lives. He dummied our guy then got two points and the win and we did nothing about it and lost. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He dummied no one but himself he hit a player who did not have the puck and was already hit by his teammate. Coward s***. No amount of you pumping that morons tires will change my mind. YoU nEvEr PlAyEd posts to someone you don’t even know is literally the dumbest take. I do agree someone needed to go after Nurse especially after the second goal at least. But that does not change or excuse that Nurse made a chickens*** play. 1 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Horvat gives up several inches of reach to Nurse and has what, maybe one other fight in his career? Nurse is a paper tiger. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
