It’s already an instigator penalty and players do it all the time. Especially given that point in the game. But hey, really gonna defend that move by Marchand?

Springfield Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 Holy **** we mollywhopped those asshats. PS: They should probably give Marchand a good 20 game suspension for his dumb ****. That’s a guy who I wouldn’t mind Wilson headshotting in the preseason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mammajamma Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 Eh, Eller's last goal was to go up 7-0 against Marchand's team, and his goal before that was the Stanley Cup winning goal. Oh and that was Eller's first fight ever. I think Eller still has the upper hand Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voice_of_Reason Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 Well, that’s a pretty emphatic way to start the season...

GoDeep81 Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 Sweet start! Hopefully Wilson being out doesn't invite teams to try and push us around. Wouldn't mind if they called up Obrien just to add a little toughness. Have to see how the next game go I suppose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The guy lost his temper at Lars because of celebration and his team getting killed and went right for him. Tom would've been on the bench Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skinsmarydu Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 Wow, what a game! Even hubby said "Now that's how Stanley Cup Champions play!" Our passing was absolutely stellar. Total puck dominance. BACK TO BACK! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popeman38 Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 Wislon is appealing, but can't play during the appeal (seems dumb, since the league could drag it's feet and delay...). Also, I love this quote from Oshie about Marchand: Quote “At least Tom’s play was on the ice and he was hitting the guy that had the puck milliseconds before,” Oshie said, while pointing to Bruins forward Brad Marchand’s fight with Capitals center Lars Eller, who did not want to drop gloves, during the third period of Wednesday night’s game. "And then you see tonight the sucker punches that Lars took in. So they kind of set the standard. Marchand has a history [with the Department of Player Safety], and we trust that they’ll do what they’re supposed to do and take care of business.” Also, this tidbit from DSP lends credence to shoulder being the initial point of contact: Quote “They can’t just say, ‘Oh, because it’s him,’ " Smith-Pelly said. “If the hit is to the head, directly to the head, it is a suspension. I mean, just because it is him. I think we all feel that he went through [Sundqvist’s] shoulder; the guy has a separated shoulder. He went through his shoulder, just because it is him doesn’t mean you have to make a whatever statement or whatever. I mean I don’t want to say anything too crazy, but it’s garbage.” BUT, in more important news, That was an awesome game. Hopefully more of the same tonight in ****tsburgh.

I am curious though why don't they pipe Walton in the concourse? You can only hear him in the bathroom. Some of us leave our seats with 5 to go in the first to use the toilets before the line starts swarming at intermission. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
purbeast Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 Watching last night and hearing the chatter on 106.7 all morning, I am really regretting not going to the game last night, regardless of the prices. It would have been hard to swing with finding someone to watch my son but I probably could have figured it out. FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah that’s what i thought too. I wasnt in town for any of the finals ones but i saw the pictures and it was a huge difference, for sure. I’d say that’s cause the first game of the season isn’t that big of a moment, whereas the finals are. But all in al, it wasn’t too bad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
