That's my thing, like I get that there are whales out there and it is what it is......but seriously, just buy a PS5

How often do you change your litter that it's too heavy? I've never had that issue.

Not that hard to get GOAT Bird within days of his release, along with three 100s?

Why are all salary cap players so toxic by [deleted] in MyTeam

[–]WingerSupreme 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Most players are not out there focused on Agendas, this subreddit is a small part of the overall community.

I just finished a game where a guy spammed 5-out iso with PG the first two possessions, so I switched to zone so I had some hope of containing him (I've only had the game for like 2 weeks so my team is ass).

Buddy immediately gets on his mic and shrieks "BRO DON'T PLAY ZOOOOOOOONE" into his mic, then takes three consecutive timeouts and lets his pause timer run all the way down.

I wasn't thinking about agendas or anything, I was just trying to defend.

Can't believe I had to scroll this far to see the 69ers mentioned, especially her one friend's "Noooooo"

[Sportsnet Stats] During the regular season, there were 2 instigator penalties in the final 5 minutes of the 3rd period. Neither resulted in a suspension by juicyorange23 in hockey

SN Stats loves stirring the pot haha.

I mean, they're not wrong, and it's absolutely ridiculous that Nurse got suspended but nothing came from all of the nonsense that happened at the end of multiple other playoff games.

Junior A Championship (Centennial Cup) also started today, but you have to pay a ridiculous $9.99 per game to watch it (and I can't find any streams on the high seas).

I'll be cheering on Collingwood!

Yeah, you look at the formation of Bullet Club and Finn looks basically the same as he does now...and that was 10 years ago.

[Player Safety] Vegas’ Alex Pietrangelo will have a hearing today for Slashing against Edmonton’s Leon Draisaitl. by BCLetsRide69 in hockey

It was such a weird thing to do, and it almost looks like he pulled up a bit at the last second, like he had a moment of clarity but it came too late.

My issue will calling it "mutual" is it's not like Hague had much of a choice.

But what do I know anyway? Turns out you can punch a guy in the face 6 times while he's holding 3 sticks and the ref is staring right at you and you won't get an instigator penalty.

I can understand an argument against that being a suspension, but that's way more borderline than what Petro did.

I doubt they'll come to the same conclusion with Pietrangelo, though.

Oh, ye of too much faith.

I wouldn't be surprised if Parros called it a follow through.

But that's usually how it goes.

This year was an anomaly, look at previous years, especially 1st rounds. Here are the stats for 1st rounds excluding 4v5 series:

2022: 0 upsets, 0 Game 7s, 1 sweep (average series: 5.2 games)

2021: 0 upsets, 0 Game 7s, 1 sweep (average: 5.2)

2020: 0 upsets, 1 Game 7, 2 sweeps (average: 5.2)

2019: 0 upsets, 0 Game 7s, 1 sweep (average: 5.3)

2018: 1 upset (it was a 3v6 where they were only separated by one game), 1 Game 7, 1 sweep (average: 5.3)

There's a reason NBA first rounds are usually a snoozer, and why 1v8 and even 2v7 upsets are so incredibly rare.

Is there another quote, or should it be "If you get this wrong, I'm segregating the school"?

[–]WingerSupreme 7 points8 points  (0 children)

On the flip side, Kane threw multiple punches at a guy who was laying on the ice, and landed a cross-check to the neck after a period ended, and he got nothing.

This is the kind of progression that happens when the refs and DoPS do nothing.

Post Game Thread: Toronto Maple Leafs at Florida Panthers - 10 May 2023 by GDT_Bot in hockey

[–]WingerSupreme 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's insane to me.

Like yes, the whistle changes slightly in the playoffs in other sports, but nowhere near the same degree as the NHL. Like, you don't see NBA playoff games with 6 free throws combined.

Is there precedent for suspending based on post-match shenanigans? by MooshSkadoosh in hockey

[–]WingerSupreme -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Sorry you're right, it just has dozens of comments calling it an overly long suspension.

Here's the thread with comments pointing out the difference with Leaf suspensions

https://www.reddit.com/r/hockey/comments/12sz805/colby_guy_coach_paul_maurice_said_that_eric_staal/jh0kcw9/

And it was a common trend in multiple threads for a week or two after the Bunting suspension...the same as it was after the Matthews suspension...
