Ongoing NHL Thread - Part Brock and Roll Four Lines

[dash]

I just watched an Elliotte Friedman tv spot as he's down at the NHL general manager meetings in Florida and he mentioned the big topic of discussion on day 1 was video review of puck over glass infractions. I'm pleased to see that they're tackling an issue that's foremost on the minds of hockey fans these days.

Sad thing, it is the only penalty they can't screw up. Or most of the time can't screw up.

Even though he checked all the boxes for a player that Don Cherry would like. He fell outside this scale for Don to actually like him.

I'm pretty sure Don is a fan of Wayne Simmonds and he also liked Nazem Kadri.

LOL...yeah I know. Kadri even defended him after his firing.

Sadly though it doesn't seem to be that far out of bounds for Don.

Sometimes I want to give Oilers fans a pass because this is one of the people that feeds them this kind of tripe. However, Oilers fans are smug and arrogant of their own accord so they deserve Spector and get no break from me.

Torts is making captain Sean Couturier a healthy scratch tonight.

Also this is rich from Spector considering Connor McWonderful only has 25 goals on the season.

But hey, I hope they enjoyed their stay at Del Boca Vista

Oh no...RIP Chris.

Yes, he had some soft hands that were often overshadowed by his toughness.

Oh no...RIP Chris.

I remember Chris Simon scoring some pretty big goals in the 2004 run to the Cup finals for the Flames. Won a Cup with the Avs back in 1996. Scored 29 goals for the Caps one season.

Born in 1972 so 52 would be correct.
