One of those is kind of sticking out right now

Get that distraction out of there and make them go get it. whoopy shyt. You think if that puck actually made it to the dressing room that Mathew wouldn't have gotten it to Brady. Like come on. They lost a must win, they are pissed. Not the first time this has happened, there's at least one from a cup winning game that they still can't track down and the ref/linesman were involved in that.

There are a lot of other issues here to be dealt with. Quit piling onto it with something so insignificant. Boo hoo, he took my puck. Babies.
When a team is playing well below their abilities and a coach is brought in to change the culture, of course people are going to comment on a clear illustration of what Sutter has to fix.

worry about playing hard and winning a game, not about playing games with the puck.

Come on, he shot it to their end. He is supposed to hand deliver it lol

The second he shot it the incident was over...puck went right to a Sens player.

Missed the game, fortunately. Really not too keen on adjusting my life these days for a game every second day of uninspiring hockey. Especially 5pm starts and 3pm starts, what the hell.

Was hoping Sutter would have an instant turnaround effect but that's obviously not realistic. If this season is a wash so be it. Make steps to turn into a better team for next season. As long as somebody bursts the Coilers bubble at some point I can live with a bad season. And oilers fans can STFU, we may have been mediocre for a while but they have been TERRIBLE for many, many years. For once their team is doing well in the standings. I actually saw a media guy suggest Nurse should be a possible Norris candidate. Funniest thing I have ever heard.

Keep Tanev, Markstrom, eatbread and lindholm. Not married to anybody else on the flames at this point.

Interesting to read the mix of comments on Ras and the puck. Personally, I think it was classless and clueless. The kid stoned the Flames; he played a calm composed game and a bunch of crybaby millionaire soft-as-butter players tried to take his souvenir. Not a good look, and it got a lot of play from the media. Unfavourably.

I'm surprised and disappointed in how that played out (game and puck alike), but churlish tantrums really aren't the way to respond. Flames had their chances and didn't take them. They have only themselves to blame.

It *did* take one of the Lineys going over to Ras to get him to drop the puck...he didn't do it voluntarily. Wanna make a statement? Do it on the ice Ras.

Brady did the exact same thing earlier this year.

Just trolling the other team, Pronger was great at it too.

Much ado about nothing IMO.
It has a swede who did it, so of course he get trashed for it.

Good ole canadians always gets a free pass.

Well North Americans then.

Hfboards is handling this very awful. They are calling him a poor human being.

Very distasteful.

Pronger is one of the best to ever do it, and hasn’t played in the league since 2012. And when he stole the puck, he was trying to get under the skin of his opponents in the Stanley Cup Final.

Tkachuk and Andersson are nobodies who are embarrassed and pissy they lost a regular season game to the Senators.

That’s your double standard.

Not because Andersson is Swedish.

The team would be better with Brodie. But not that much better that the record would be a whole lot different. And there would be no Tanev, presumably.

Crosby wouldn’t do it in the first place, and even if he did, he wouldn’t be getting a pass.

Where is this even coming from?

Tkachuk didn't do anything wrong. He shot the puck back towards the Sens.

Andersson tried to steal the souvenir puck from the goalie which is a dumbass move, especially after he, and the entire team, played like ####. Be a man.

Crosby has done a fair share of unclassy stuff when he was young. He punched a player in the nut.

Thanks for proving me right. Never anything wrong with the north american players.

Crosby was widely called a whiner early on. No pass given. Marchand is Canadian and he was criticized a lot for trolling stuff like the licking. Sean Avery is Canadian and basically got blacklisted for doing stupid classless stuff.
