Another thing I am not a fan of? Having to serve the penalty after a goal was scored during the delayed call. Glad the NHL didn't adopt that.

Throwing the puck intentionally over the glass was never a problem. No team deserves a 2 minute PP because a player on the other team tried to clear it off the top of the glass and got under it a bit, or the puck was on edge...

First time - same as icing. Everytime after that 2 min delay of game.
 
Re: NHL Playoffs 2013 - Walruses, Trolls and other assorted creatures.

What amazes me is that players STILL aim high off the glass to clear the puck and then b*tch that it's a stupid penalty when their already high shot rainbows into the crowd. How about these players quit being lazy and find a more creative way to clear the puck?

I'm fine with the rule.

I don't get that one either. I don't think that ANY other level or league of hockey adopted that.

Makes no sense.
 
Re: NHL Playoffs 2013 - Walruses, Trolls and other assorted creatures.

I don't have a problem with that rule...

On another note, it amazes me that teams still readily employ pieces of crap like raffi torres.

Is it me or is this conference semi final round kinda dull?

The sharks/kings game 2 wasn't dull.

And I didn't get to watch the Bruins/Rangers game and only was able to listen to OT but I can't imagine that game was too dull going to OT.

The first period could have been used as a sleep aid in hospitals. zzzzzzzzz

World Championship semis are on - nope they're not. Plus the NHL Network is not showing the Memorial Cup live. Fans are missing a chance to see Seth Jones.

If you're in Canada, ignore the above.

USA-Switzerland at 11 tonight. I assume tape delayed.

Basically nothing Jimmy could have done about that.

If you don't like the automatic minor for dumping a puck over the glass, maybe you should use the other 85' of ice.

This is spoken like someone that has never played hockey. Not saying you have or haven't, but the statement reeks of it.

Just tired of whiners. It's the rule. If you don't want to get called for it, keep the puck low.
 
Re: NHL Playoffs 2013 - Walruses, Trolls and other assorted creatures.

Put the side glass back to 3'. That will increase the scoring opportunities!! We used to have it and nobody complained. Of course that was before tweeting on the cell phones instead of watching the game.

Get rid of the netting on the ends! It creates a stoppage no matter what, may as well see someone get hurt.
 
Re: NHL Playoffs 2013 - Walruses, Trolls and other assorted creatures.

There's probably some of you waiting until the tape delay tonight to watch the US-Switzerland game, so i'll put it in a spoiler.

SUI-3 USA-0. Swiss guaranteed their first medal in IIHF play since 1953. When did they get good?
