Not surprised Willy wasn't suspended. Should've been, but alas the NHL doesn't want to do anything that will effect the playoffs. That's clear based off of what Schenn got for his hit in game 6 last round after they were eliminated. Wasn't his worst hit of the series by far and I guarantee he wouldn't have gotten anything if there was a game 7.

Do fans that wear Wilson jerseys count too?

The day after US Thanksgiving this past year I was on the DC metro and a guy with a Wilson jersey got on and stood next to me. I told him if he ever needed a lawyer I know one in the area.

/I just said I knew a lawyer; I didn't say I knew a good lawyer

First we shrink goalie equipment, then we shrink (shrivel up) goalies.
Yeah, but think about the grander scheme here...goalie offspring will be born with two heads and an extra set of eyes and 5 limbs. Groomed properly as a goalie, they would become much more effective.

Did he cut you down at the knees as he approached, trying to jostle for standing room?

The moment Bellemare only got one game, the NHL set the bar for suspensions this year (I don't count Schenn since they issued that after the series was over).

What Wilson did should have warranted a suspension in a vacuum, but with the precedent set, there was no chance.

The "international society of guys who wear #43" is meeting tomorrow to revoke his membership. Problem is, we don't like Conor Sheary either.

Wilson might just get to stay as we only eject one guy a year, if ever.

Wait...sincerely have blinders on, but is Sheary unlikable?

I've been talking to the finer folks at Garmin and we are developing APS technology. Arena Positioning System. Using many arenas Bud Light mini blimp systems they can place a small satellite in the upper arena that can keep track of the puck at all times.
You're welcome.

What if the puck was coated in a special material that only showed up on special cameras? Like the x-ray machines at the airport? Just have one of these cameras overhead, and you'd be able to pick out the location and orientation of the puck even if the view was obstructed by the goalie.

Can someone with sciency knowledge think of something?

I think I found a solution that will work. It's kind of a radical idea, but be open-minded.

Anyone who Pierre slobbers all over is automatically on the dislike list. Sorry, one of the top three hard line rules of the 43 club.

The other two are:
If you praise the New York Rangers or Yankees, you must start with "I hate to say this, but"
No handlebar mustaches.

I guess I will never be invited to the 43 club.
