The late part doesn’t bother me, it’s hitting a guy without the puck who isn’t looking. That’s the gutless part.
Wish the replays were at regular speed. Slow mo makes it look like he got drilled at 4 steamboats. It’s a dirty hit because Jankowski isn’t expecting contact at that point. If he thought it would be coming he’d have got his arms up or better prepare for it.
I mean, that’s less than a second at normal speed. It’s was clean (no elbow, not to the head, etc), it wasn’t close enough to the boards to where that could become a danger, it wasn’t blindside. It was called interference because it was just a tad too late.
Super late, lol. Quarter second earlier and it’s perfectly fine. I have no dog in this fight, Tom Wilson is a piece of shit.
That wasn’t a quarter second. He was at center ice when Jankowski got rid of the puck. He had plenty of time to pull off and Jankowski wasn’t even part of the play anymore.
I don't give a fuck how many seconds it was, he lined him up from 25 feet away. Are you suggesting he was trying to avoid the contact?
You’ve always been able to hit someone after they last touched the puck, how much long after is where it becomes a gray area. If he had hit him a quarter second sooner it would’ve been fine for what is generally acceptable.
It wasn’t charging as he was gliding in. But when a player isn’t expecting the hit after giving up the puck...Wilson had time to pull out of the hit.
And he got the appropriate penalty for it. Hitting someone without the puck is interference. If he had a flying elbow to his head from behind it would be a different story but it was an otherwise perfectly clean hit if not a quarter second late.
Agreed, interference was the appropriate call. I’m not saying it was worthy of a 5 minute major, but it was absolutely a penalty and furthers the narrative that Wilson is a piece of shit.
And that’s why you always need someone to fuck him up later, Wilson is not doing this if a Calgary player can embarass him in a fight or just bully him around the ice this sport is stupid sometimes
The Red Wings are somewhere in the mid 30 straight PP without a goal, I've lost track at this point. Also at 4 straight PP without even a shot
Really wish i made the post 5 minutes ago where i was thinking if the Panthers can just finally score once they will open the flood gates. Someone just needed to break the door open
Detroit just had another unsuccessful power play. I’ll be upset if we don’t break the record. That makes 0/40 since the streak began. Frankly I’m stunned this PP isn’t clicking
They were playing well enough to win. Just not getting the bounces. They came all at once. Took 4/6 should have been 6/6. Take it and be happy.
You won’t be the first or the last to be burned by Cody ceci. It will be ok once the process is complete.
the obvious joke is that even "solid" is too much to ask of Cody Ceci. What's weird is that you needed it explained.
Ceci was miscast in Ottawa as a top guy and they never let him develop properly. Was never a need to rush him and it ruined him. Kid had some talent.
