Can you imagine what Scott Stevens would have done to Aho back in the day there? Wakey Wakey.

I am quite enjoying this game. Excellent way to close the first half of the season. Go Flams!

Cant believe that the canes commentary is calling the hit on Aho a dangerous play.

Cassie's right. He hit him square in the chest as the first point of contact. Head and knee were secondary/collateral. Can't float through the slot with you head in your skates like that.

Why do they keep showing me a commercial for a low rent, absolutely ####astic Nirvana female cover band... second worse part of this game, after the refs, that's making it damned hard to watch.

Aho tried to curl and drag around Giordano. Not much Gio could do.

If Budweiser Prohibition Brew tastes like beer, why can’t they make Budweiser taste like beer?

I know this puts me solidly in the minority, but I've really enjoyed Cassie's colour commentary today!

The problem is determining intent, which is pretty much impossible. The League has taken a zero-tolerance approach to promote the safety of the players, which is the right thing to do. It sucks that accidental head shots like this one will occur, and non-malicious actions and players will be penalized, but this is what it will take to make the game as safe and enjoyable as possible for everyone.

You lose your best player to a hit, clean or not, the homer glasses come on. I imagine there would be a similar response if a clean hit took out one of our stars.

Not saying they are right, but it's not shocking. Especially with American teams, in which the homerism is REALLY strong most of the time.
