It was in the back enough to be a board.

Also, I'm pretty sure you only have to violently launch a player into the boards to get called for boarding. I think the in the back thing just makes it more automatic, but you can get called for it hitting a guy in the chest.

Come on MAF, let in a softie.

Man, these Blue Jackets' fans are pretty awesome.

I was afraid they were going to call a major on that because Wiz went into the boards headfirst. The fact that his head hit the boards and he was down after the hit is probably the only reason it was called a penalty at all. I personally thought it was clean though, Wiz has to keep his head up.

[Darkstone42]

Hat trick! He showed up in a big way tonight.

RIP Jackets

The talent the Pens have is actually showing this game. Domination. And Niskanen with another assist whoo-hoo.

 

[postmaster]

I predict the next 3 penalties go against the Pens.

Like it matters

Sutter had to be helped to the locker room after his shift on the PK. Looked like he hurt his leg going into the boards. Hopefully he'll be alright, he's been huge for us this series.

 

[hokiehi21]

how did CBJ not score

 

[pixburgher66]

Hey, whaddya know...they called a hit away from the puck interference.

 

[thehobocop]

Johansen is such a plug, he's been stirring shit this entire series trying to be a tough guy.

Losing him would literally ruin everything about how this team is rolling. Putting Sid/Geno out together has sparked them, gives Sutter Neal/Jokinen as wingers, and Goc being healthy leads to a puck possessing third line. IT WAS SO BEAUTIFUL.
