[GT] Flames @ Jets

[Bubba17]

Just came to say that Pospisil hit was in no way a major penalty, elbow was tucked against his side until the hit was made. Morrisey ducked/slipped right as he was about to get hit and letting the Winnipeg coach campaign for a major is BS.

Split second before the hit.

Elbow tucked in, skates still on the ice for Pospisil.
The follow through (and Morissey was slipping) of the arm and the momentum making him leave the feet AFTER the initial contact and the momentum from a hit, made it look worse.

Wolf is so good.

Don't let facts get in the way of people's outrage.

It’s amazing how not one person on the flames production crew will even consider that. Ryan Leslie interview was a good example

[jonesy]

It’s like they are afraid to ever defend the flames about anything

[Goriders]

Just remember to stick to the gameplan

Play well
Compete hard
Dominate at times
But make sure to lose the game.

[Rhett44]

It doesn't matter if he led with his elbow. It was still a hit to the head, which the league is clamping down on.

Pospisil is one of my favorite Flames. It was a bad hit.

Hm. The initial call was 2

Not seen: (iv) increasing the original Minor Penalty call to a greater penalty.

That look like holding the stick

If you're going to use reply(and on this case, against the rules) how about stop the video at a spot like I did above?

Does it really look like, especially since Morisseys head continues downward, the nexr 0.1 of a second, and Pospisil's skates leaving his feet happened long after contact, CLEARLY.

If Pospsil was head hunting the elbow in the above pic would've already been well away from his body, and Pospisil's skates would've been well off the ice.

That's about as tucked as an elbow can get.

I hope Huderdeau is benched. Guy is being outplayed by players at a quarter of his salary.

[Francis's Hairpiece]

God DAMN you, Bernice!

No help on the out of town scoreboard.

I forgot that he was even playing.

I want to like Huberdeau, because of how entertaining he was as a Panther.

His first two (…of nine) seasons as a Flame are indefensible though.
