kickingfrog Posted September 22, 2013 Report Share Posted September 22, 2013 The rules are not open to assumptions. Other rules of the game have been relaxed for shootout attempts with the league's blessing. The kicking the puck into the net rule is held up as a rule to protect players (Completely incorrect btw, but that's not the focus here). No player's safety was endangered during the play. Again we are talking about an unsuccessful shootout attempt during the preseason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jedimaster Posted September 23, 2013 Report Share Posted September 23, 2013 Most people that have played the game especially goalies have levered pucks off there shin. To add a clear cicking motion at your stick seems pretty clearly defined as kicking equipment. I see no such mention of the kciking of equipment refering to items on the ice. The rule simply states one cannot kick a stick equipment at a puck. Seems pretty clear to me. Of course anyone can take something for the way its written or of course make up whatever add on's they want. We certainly see that with the fishing regs all the time. haha Anyway, it would be interesting to see what ruling would be if something like that happened in a real game.

jedimaster Posted September 23, 2013 Report Share Posted September 23, 2013 Yep, breaking bad starts in 10 minutes... can hardly wait. I was pleasently surprised to see reimer holding his ground on the shootouts though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kickingfrog Posted September 23, 2013 Report Share Posted September 23, 2013 Apparently the goalies went at it tonight with Bernier doing his best impression of Potvin laying a beatdown on Hextall. The best part is Miller was playing the part of Hextall. I'll need to watch Sportscentre later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tb4me Posted September 23, 2013 Report Share Posted September 23, 2013 Wow line brwal..Clarkson left the bench to engage in a fight...Kessel fought and won IMO, Kessel did swing his stick at Scott twice, hopefully he doesnt get suspended..There was a solid 3 min of fighting.. What a great night..Bernier beat Millers arse...Ya babyGO LEAFS GO!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlowPoke Posted September 23, 2013 Report Share Posted September 23, 2013 Leafs score a KO on a one on one bout. Next faceoff Sabre goon drops the gloves and goes after Kessel. Everybody on the ice squares off and Clarkson joins the melee from the bench. Goalies squared off, Miller got the worst of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

danc Posted September 23, 2013 Report Share Posted September 23, 2013 That's 3 times now this pre season that I've seen Kessel use his stick as a weapon. He can't keep doing that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

muskymatt Posted September 23, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 23, 2013 Players leaving bench to fight, Kessel swinging his stick, goon hockey only the way the laffs can do it. After all, if you suck at hockey, might as well be the embarrassment of the league all the way around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

muskymatt Posted September 23, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 23, 2013 (edited) Are you guys actually proud of Kessel running around like a coward hitting and spearing guys who have their back turned to him with his stick? Really???? I mean like, cmon, I razz about the laffs but that was truly just wrong. I hope the league gives him 20 games Edited September 23, 2013 by muskymatt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jedimaster Posted September 23, 2013 Report Share Posted September 23, 2013 (edited) Too bad Orr and Mclaren wern't in the lineup. Scott is a foolish goon. There will be some suspensions for sure. Kessel will likely get one and if he does he deserves it. Edited September 23, 2013 by jedimaster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think fighting belongs in the league, it has it's place if done right. But that will have all the do gooders screaming to have it removed. That was just wrong , especially in pre season.

Your hate for the Leafs goes a little beyond rediculous. Most of us are just trying to have a little fun with this. Being a sports fan just gives most of us an out for the everyday pressures of life.

I stand by my comments about Kessel though. Seems to be more and more sop for the laffs these days and I don't think it will benefit the team or the league. jmo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
