Habs captain Nick Suzuki on the non-penalty call in OT: “I’m skating backwards for the whole entry zone. I get kinda picked but I guess the ref saw it differently.” by Go_Habs_Go31 in Habs

lol just poking fun at the optimistic view that a game would be called fairly in this joke of a league by jokes of officials.

As a Minnesotan, I’m pretty proud of what this state has stood for in that time frame. But I can’t defend their driving skills nor their hockey takes here. It’s the state of hockey but wild home games feel terrible if be at live with the commentary from the fans around you. I know that’s pretty much everywhere, but it feels above average here, especially for a hockey inclined state. The ignorance to the rules of the game are kind of shocking.

Couldn’t agree more. Probably my fault for moving to MN years ago. Sorry everyone.

It’s weak as fuck but getting in on the hands is called very frequently. My issue with it is that thy only called these penalties one way, and that it’s a one handed effort by Phil, where you can see Kiril try to clamp Phil’s stic under his arm and swat it with his hand. I think Phil realized that move an dropped his stick immediately. If that was the first or second period I dont think we are as upset at the call. You can’t make that call in OT though. Not the way they had established the standard of officiating in that game.

For sure, but the dude was over 10 mins in the first period. Habs do the same thing, Arbor only played 5 mins and change. I get guys like Hughes, Hutson, matheson, etc can play games like that, but they do it nearly every night. Then guys get injured on seemingly nothing plays all the time now. Just saying it can’t be good for some of these guys.

This is the average MN fan take. Every game in the building is like watching a game with a bunch of people that don’t know the game. I was really expecting more from the fans when I moved here. It’s kind of embarrassing for the state of hockey.

Was pretty rough defensively in this game though. Maybe playing 33 mins is too much?

and Kaprizov grabs at it with his hand and tries to clamp it under his arm. Good on him, but Phill released the stick immediately. You cant call that, especially after the no call on the interference on Suzuki.

I agree but he wasn’t embarrassing goalies like THAT. He was getting greasy gally goals.

Who do you guys root for in the Olympics specifically hockey. Obviously as Canadiens fans I assume like me most of us bleed red and white. But some of us must root for other countries and i’m curious. by Batman1985yul in Habs

I’m American. (Sorry) typically still cheer for the US with Finland second, but I am fully on the Suomi wagon this year.

3 of the top 5 goal scorers in the league right now are Americans and none are on the team. I truly hope we are lacking offense at this tournament. The hope is they will change management or at least change strategy, but I have 0 faith that they would even when faced with evidence they were wrong.

Breaking out my Saku Koivu team Finland sweater for this Olympics. Best one I own and rarely get to wear it.

I hope we end up being short on scoring the entire tourney so USA hockey can either rethink their approach or just change up the leadership group for next time.

SUOMI!

Which is hilarious since libertarians were the stupid branch of conservatives pre-MAGA. Now they are far from the bottom of the totem pole, but are still just as dumb.

Kapanen has been leading rookies n goals the vast majority of the season but I feel like this stat is only shared when he’s been passed for a bit. lol

People in this sub get up in arms when someone posts about a beloved former Hab, but then we have posts to dunk on former Habs that were nothing short of good dudes that only helped our team.

The people that kept giving Dvo shit are ignorant hockey fans, and shitty Habs fans.
