Meh, it sucks that Benn's stick hit that spot, but he's not even looking at Tkachuk, and he's jostling for position with his stick/body. I have no doubt it was accidental.

Agree. And I think it's a hurt groin vs balls.

I think any line is fair game for being broken up on the road when the team overall isn't playing well. It's about catching the opponent off guard.

Ugly ugly period. Third line showed up - not sure what the rest of the platoon was doing.

Playing the Stars is always going to include some extended stretches of frustrating hockey. Shake it off and back to it.

Definitely could be something there. I think he's touched the puck for longer that 2s once in the past few as games.

That was no accident.
And the sportsnet panel says absolutely nothing when they show the spearing

I'm not so sure it was accidental (but I can't say I'm positive either way), still I'm surprised they have basically shown the play twice, and then its like 'oh well Dallas is playing super clean no penalties for them' not even an attempt to analyze the play. by this time we would have seen Tkachuk/Scheifele 25 times?

Flames need to come out hard and start dictating play.

Lindholm, in contrast to his line mates, especially Johnny, has been very competitive (200 feet) and productive this season and playoffs.

He had an average period , though, for sure.

Come on, let's not be Jets fans here.

That was incidental.

Where is the media outcry for the spear that sent Tkachuk to the dressing room?

The double standards in this league is trivial.
