Inconsistency on these icing calls drives me nuts. Lauzon gives a good faith effort on a rolling puck earlier that gets waved off (Jack's Old Man reference), and Weegar turns before the puck gets within 10 feet of him and it's icing

KRUG with the laser for the win. OT should be 3x3 for 10 minutes. 3x3 OT is a fun product.

That was one hell of a nifty move by Pasta to set that up, in traffic no less. Halak with a pair of fantastic saves too, Barkov likely should’ve won it if not for such an effort. Good lord, what a heart racer of an OT.

Let’s all take a moment to think about how good this team is. Speed, skill, strength, heart, discipline and great goaltending.

Unbelievable that the watched it again and CHANGED it to a minor. Had it originally been a minor and they watched it again I would have expected them to change it to a major, based on the rule. Total WTF...

Not gonna give his site hits, but the DoPS czar runs a clothing line with this tag line. Needless to say, I don't think he's focused entirely on player safety, and it trickles down to the guys on the ice

Violent gentlemen are forged from steel and bound by a code: Respect. It runs deep and courses through the veins of a Violent Gentleman. We are a brotherhood of upstanding individuals with an appreciation for style and our nose to the grindstone. From the ice to the Octagon, from the ring to the field we honor the fight, the art, the opponent and the sport. Blood paints a path to the heart. Sweat, a river to the soul.

You would think cheap shot elbows to the face on routine plays would be against “the code”.

It's too bad, 3x3 actually is a common component of the game, versus the shootout which should be an uncommon occurrence in a game.
I'd say break-aways are a lot more common in game than 3v3. I can't think of the last time I've seen any 3v3 regulation play.

I wasn't exactly clear there. You are of course right in it's basic sense, I just meant a break away where it is essentially, 3v3. A couple of the checking forwards perhaps are still in the offensive zone, maybe the corresponding defensemen are there with them, leaving a 3v3 set in action at the other end for a few seconds. In that sense it happens frequently during a game.

No supplemental discipline coming for Dadonov for Carlo hit.
We could see that coming a mile away. They only suspend a guy if they’re outraged by in on talk radio in Canada. It’s a Bruin so no one up there gives a fuck. In fact, any conversation about a Bruins player getting concussed probably goes something like “Yeah that was a cheap shot hit, but they have Marchand on their team, so fuck them, no suspension.”
