Watching that grainy rear end "review" makes me angry as hell. You can't see poo poo on there, how's a ref supposed to make a call based on that?

It's amazing to me that they can't get had cameras for those angles - you can get one for a couple hundred bucks that would be better than what they have. Or spend $10k, whatever, and get a high frame rate one. If you're going to make something like offside subject to review then at least do it right

Yeah maybe charging that guy with a bunch of offences is a little harsh. Most people who do dumb things at sports events just get thrown out/banned.

People who streak the field at Jays games get charged with misdemeanour mischief and banned for life from the Rogers centre.

I still like him. Also even if you think he's garbage I'm certain he's got way higher trade value than any other Pens d.

I'm pretty certain Vegas would not take him, which suggests he has zero trade value.

He's been bad for a while now, ever since the cancer really, and is also brittle. At this point it's pretty likely he is what he is, which is a borderline bottom pairing guy. Which if true makes his long contract a push at best, not the big bargain everyone thinks.

If anyone wanted to give up significant value for him I'd definitely make that move. He hasn't been much better than Hainsey and that's pretty bad.

If he could increase his speed I'd be ok with him. He just looks like hes skating with cement blocks for skates.

If I am remembering correctly, the ESPN 30 for 30 (or whatever it was) showed him pledging $10,000,000 of his wn cash to that hospital. He seems like a great dude, but he still stomped Steal; whether it was intentional or not (I doubt he meant to do what he did) I am going to harbor a little hatred for St. Subban regardless.
This man now has a well earned (and expensive) nickname for life. Any new friends he might make are are going to think he was trying to date Manti T'eo though.

Ban him from the Arena, Give him a $200 fine for catfish buggery or whatever, and let the nashville radio station pay it. The let it drop off his record in like a year or so as long as he isn't caught smuggling catfish around the vicinity again. Why go any further than that?

I personally wouldn't mind this dude throwing catfish every game, since apparently he picks the worst times to do it. Last night it was on a penguins icing, IIRC, with Crosby on the ice.

i've never understood why players don't try to bounce dump-ins on the goaltender more often. most goalies aren't good enough at puckhandling to play it off to the defense before you have time to forecheck, and you have a chance at a weird bounce that handcuffs him. and an o-zone faceoff is also not a bad thing to have.

I think this part is wrong, at least at the NHL level. Most NHL goalies very much can play it off to their teammates very very quickly.

i think an o zone faceoff is worse than having the puck.
