COACH TOTORO SAY REFEREE CAN BANISH WHISTLE TO LAND OF WIND AND GHOSTS!

McDavid got a major and was tossed for boarding a dude

I've seen lot worse boardings with lesser penalties

A Boarding penalty that results in an injury to the head or neck is an automatic Major Penalty and Game Misconduct, and Kempe was bleeding from the face.

It's about finding that next group of core players we can win with in the next 6, 8, 10 years. Let's face it, it's hard for 20-, 21-, 22-year-olds to lead an NHL team. Look at the playoffs.

Yeah seriously, I remember the signings and drafts but some of these trades I totally forgot like Clendening for Forsling or that it was McCann who was dumped in the Gudbranson deal.

What a tenure.

It's like the high sticking double minor I think, if you call boarding and the victim bleeds it's an automatic 5+misconduct. The ref's only options were call that or call nothing.

Or like what happened with Hunt a few games ago, first you call it boarding, and then you change your mind and give him a misconduct for charging

I'm used to Tom Wilson boardings, so a hard but glancing shot to the shoulder that he mostly glides into seems kind of... soft.

Oh that's inevitable, just a slow erosion of anything and everything associated with this team that brings joy to the fanbase.

Also lol at all the dipshits who spent years claiming Benning was playing 4D chess with the Tanner Pearson signing and Bonino trade. Guy was just as dumb and unprepared as I always suspected. Judge people on their actions, not your weird sycophantic projections onto them.

I have, and the flyers have won at least 1 game in the last 30 days.

The Islanders have not

They have scored 38 goals, the worst in the league.

Over their 11 game winless streak they have scored an average of 1.18 goals per game

The Flyers are dog poo poo garbage

The Islanders worse than dog poo poo garbage
