The media is painting the flames as the villain in this picture.

All of these headlines are pure clickbait. Nobody thinks Giordano was malicious in intent, and nobody thinks Rittich crossed the line.

Well except for the usual clown show up north.

Trust the No Goodniks to get whiny over a non injury and a victory celly.

If Rittich was known for being arrogant or a dick I could see ppl being put off by it. But the fact is that he’s just a fun, quirky guy so there’s no problems. Sour grapes

As each day goes by that team becomes a little more like Toronto west. Unbelievable amount of crying. Maybe if they focused on all their bull #### as much as they focused on everything else they wouldnt be such a joke.

Nope. That's all lies. Nothing can save that #### team in the ####### of Alberta.

Not to mention the entire TSN family thought the Bautista bat flip was the greatest thing ever - bunch of hypocrites (par for the course for Oiler fans)

My thoughts exactly. Including fans and media in Edmonton I’m sure.

Maybe I'm missing something but the TSN guys in that vid loved the stick toss. Title is a little click baity but they totally defend it.

Jeff Marek has been calling the flames the league's current villain team and comparing them to the 2011 Canucks. Pretty sure this sportsnet's plan to add viewers.

Correct, and the proof is things like "highlights" of the Giordano "knee" which include only one angle and no actual vision of the incident. It's all just ####-stirring neo-media BS.
