Hope kesler responds to that. I'm tired of the team being all talk, and not doing enough on the ice.

Looks like Jay Onrait and Dan O'Toole are moving south of the border to FOX SPORTS
ughhh

that's sad news..

they will be missed.

Damn, those guys are hilarious. I bet FOX threw big money at them.

Concussion, facial and dental fractures for hit on Eller last night

Gryba gets 2 games.....

Wow... I think this suspension resulted from Eller's injuries. If you're not a Sens fan, most would say the hit was a legal check with unfortunate results.

Be interesting to see if it motivates Montreal the way it did with Boston when Rome wasted Horton

Video explaining suspension

Shanny fucked up HARD

He had a chance to send a message to all players in the league and set a new precedent or to re-inforce his original rules he had strictly enforced the past two seasons

Principal point of contact: shoulder
Was the puck there? yes
Was it early or late? no
Blindside? arguable
Suicide pass? 150%
Dirty intentions? for sure

So if you are caught with your head down and you get destroyed (legally) the player who gets you gets suspended. Okay

League has changed WAY to much the past 10 years
2003 SCF, Stevens destroys Kariya with his head down at the same spot (dirty hit in regards to today's rules), no retaliation, no penalty, no suspension life goes on

Fast forward to today? Even tho the hit is absolutely clean, he gets 5+game, 2 game suspension and everyone goes after him

Some good trash talk coming from Montreal player Prust in response to Ottawa coach MacLean's comments about the hit. MacLean said after the game that Habs player Diaz is to blame for the bad pass that was a bit behind Eller.

MacLean: "Our player hits him, but 61's the guy to blame."

Prust: " He's already shown enough disrespect," Prust said. "We don't really care about what that bug-eyed, fat walrus has to say."

Prust is right. Coach MacLean does look like a bug-eyed fat walrus. :D

Am I blind? After watching Shannys video I don't even see the head as the principal contact and the shoulder as the secondary contact.

:fulloffuck:

WTF, at least we know Claude Julien has a place to work when he's done being the Bruins coach... apparently the league head office has a flair for shaping incidents in their own imaginary way no matter how much video evidence there is to the contrary............

-totally agree with the comments here about Shanahan's bad decision on the Gryba suspension. The league messed up.

It's a clean hit. The only reason that the league is giving a 2 game suspension is because of the extent of Ellers injury.

It's like the NHL logic is "If player suffers a major injury, resulting in the stretcher coming out on the ice, even though the hit on the player is clean", BAM, the player gets a suspension.

Seriously, Shanahan?

Andrew Ferrance gets 1 for intentional head shot. That was brutal. Then the dustin brown attempt from last night was the worst.

things are never consistent. it'll always be like this when they base their ruling on extent of injury rather than the incident itself.

Ference = history, clear intent to injure, extended elbow to hit Grabo's head = 1 game
Gryba = no history, rookie, clean, solid hit = 2 games

great consistency #ShannyLogic

So principal contact to the head because his head snaps back.. okay...........

to me, the ice should be suspended since his head hit the ice, resulting in injury. shanahan screwed up with this one.

Yeah, that was bullshit when I heard that. Disbelief, and to further add salt to the Sens, I'm sure someone is going to target one of the top Sens players. Hope it's not Karlson, I got a bet.

lol GG islanders

Crosby is unreal.

Just go home, Islanders. It's over.

:lawl:

So I heard... the Montreal and Ottawa series will be played as roller hockey for the next 2 games.

:troll:
