Game Thread: Montreal Canadiens(2) vs. New York Rangers(2) | ECF

I don't believe this was premeditated but let's say it was. You ask do I condone this type retaliation and the answer is absolutely with no apologies. I don't give a damn where the puck was in either instance. Prust was trying to hurt Stepan and I don't see how that is even debatable. The fact he hit him so late is all we need to know. Claiming the Prust hit would have been legal if Stepan had the puck is foolish. Stepan didn't have the puck and Prust tried to decapitate him period. Therefore I say an eye for an eye. What Moore did was justified , necessary and I couldn't be more satisfied. That answer your questions ?

Wow, that's messed up.

So headhunting a player and possibly giving him a concussion is justified and a necessary retaliation? The retaliation should be to beat them on the scoreboard, if the Rangers were more worried about beating them on the scoreboard last night the series might be over

Sort of easier to say that when you're sitting in front of the TV and not even one of the ones potentially getting injured though, isn't it?

So, the Prust hit is not fine if Stepan had the puck, but would have been fine if Stepan had earlier done something the Habs didn't like?

And since Dorsett headbutted Weaver, you are just fine with Weaver, or anyone else on the Habs for that matter, to go all open season on Dorsett?

I've got to give Montreal credit because I didn't think they would win a game in this series after Price got hurt. It would be an epic upset if they could pull it off. Obviously I hope it happens.

The Canadiens are really out for blood now!

Wait Corey Hart has enough fans to book stadiums?

Don't forget enjoying watching a player "searching for his head while being helped off the ice". Nice.

 

[forty_three]

Well you both hinted at it. Good to know a handful of people sum up the rest of the fan base and population.

Like the arrogant people who made 9/11 jokes on Twitter, or said those hateful things about Subban?

It's okay, I knew you wouldn't respond. You can't really say you'd already said it, because my question was to try and validate the apparent contradictions in what you said. To give you an opportunity to clarify.

But it seems you'd prefer to argue against things no one has said.

Wow!! I guess the music business really is dead. I'm amazed he's still touring. Does he still wear his sunglasses at night?

Last night the team we were supposed to play forfeited our game because they wanted to watch the Rangers instead. Am I wrong in thinking that's incredibly fucking lame?

Fuck that, would he be OK with someone running Henrique? In his logic it would be justified to him.

Go worry about your teams score on the golf course. Or are you a die hard Kings fan again this week?

Stop worrying about my fucking team and how and when we win.

Stepan borrow Chico's soap and no give it back

 

[Comeds]

Well the Twitter stuff about 9-11 is really awful and classless. As are the racist remarks.

Why can't people just be cool and enjoy watching a possibly concussed player helped off the ice?

 

[forty_three]

That's all I am trying to get at here. That's it. There *is* a difference between the hits. A BIG one.

I seriously laughed out loud at that.

I'll say it again, John Moore went shoulder to chest. I guess that's dirty now. But Prust going head hunting, is not.

If you think I'm going to be offended by that then unfortunately I'm not - I know it pains you that you can't offend me in that manner

No, you are not.

 

[pixburgher66]

I will verbally berate anyone who thinks it's okay to intentionally concuss a player. I will bring out the big guns. I still think everyone should have to experience a concussion for a day to understand how much they suck, and then be reminded that this could be an everyday thing if a bad enough head injury occurs.

Laughing is healthy, so I'm gonna need a healthy dose of it right now
