Ya but that's a whole other conversation. As of now it's still a part of the sport. And really, what if Kylingtons bell was rang and he was out for 2 months. We'd want an a** kicking.
I enjoy a good a** kicking and hits. Ya, injuries, but hey, they don't exactly do it for cheap.

Yeah Eric, that "Boring Style Team" went all the way to Game 7 of the finals. NOBODY in Calgary wants that.

Yeah well let’s go over the term

Afghan Hound? Khaira is Canadian. Even if you talk of his origin, nothing to do with Afghanistan. Secondly you are calling him a hound.

Please tell me how is it similar to a Russian rocket or Finnish flash?

Nobody is ignoring it, but take it offline. Virtue signalling for the rest of the game does nothing but give the racist comment traction.

That fight doesn’t happen if the refs make the appropriate call. Simple as that.

Good period by the flames keeping things tight. They need more killer instinct on the turnovers.

Even though i said I was sorry to see someone get a head injury earlier, I want to see someone punch Eric Francis like Khaira got punched. Would pay a lot of money to watch a gif of this on a loop.

Francis turning redder and redder as Leslie keeps asking questions to Sarich and Eric doesn't get to throw his terrible opinions in

Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

Khaira learned a lesson hopefully but kudos for answering the bell.

Uh...Sarchy? Tyson Barrie is 29, almost 30. I don't think he's a "good young" player anymore. He is what he is. I don't think he's going to suddenly become a defensive stalwart and learn that at this point in his career.

I do not think it is antiquated at all. It still serves a very real purpose. As demonstrated tonight. Now they know Ritchie and the rest of the Flames crew will knock them the F out if there is any more funny business. Man the was sweet! WOOOO. Let's all just enjoy the rest of the game and stop bickering virtue signalling. F THE OILERS!

Francis blatantly lying that he has been talking to people that are worried about the Flames becoming boring.

You knew it was a lie as soon as he said he was talking to people. No one talks to you, your a #### disturbing buffon.

Do we really need Internet forum posts to explicitly state everything? It’s implied no one wants to see someone injured, unless they say otherwise. Not the other way around.
