    there's no question it was charging and it'll be a suspension, but it won't be nearly as much as some would like to see. I still say 2 games is the punishment.

    Two games is more then fair. Charging yes, but can’t give out suspensions because someone gets hurt.

    The hit was not high, he did not throw an elbow, he went through the body with the check, Evans was low and Scheifele is bigger, AND NONE OF THAT MATTERS. You can’t line up a player from the blue line and take that kind of run at him head on. The intent was not to play the puck or stop the goal, it was to punish him and he was out cold before he hit the ice.Then smacking his head on the ice makes it worse. Given Scheifele’s lack of history, and it being the playoffs where suspensions get cut in half, I could see one game, maybe 2 (think 2 is appropriate because it would be 4 in the regular season), but the degree of injury and the state of the series will dictate some of that. This is where being a goon actually might have mitigated a suspension, because George Parros likes to go soft on repeat offenders and ding first timers who do things out of character. 

    Beyond the injury itself, what might prove to be bad is that, had the Jets just lost they could shrug and say they played awful and still were right in it late. Now Scheifele has given the Habs all the motivation they need to keep their foot on the gas and sucked a ton of energy from the Jets going forward. I honestly would still have picked the Jets to win the series even with this loss, but after that hit I really think that could spell the Jets doom.  

    I agree with everything here expect for intent. Tough to determine intent from an outside view

    Didn't watch the debate, to busy watching the Yankees clobber Cleveland, but watching the various shows tonight I get the feeling that nobody learned anything new tonight.

    I’ll give you a quick run down. Trump won’t stop interrupting, Biden stumbles words lots, both were like little kids yelling at each other. There all caught up

    You are not allowed to have a different opinion and rather then dispute you on why I don't agree by using facts or my own reasons...  I will be rude instead and take the easy way out with lazy answers.   

    Do I fit in now?  

    I think that described of all us on this thread 😂

    1) Yes, that loan does seem reasonable without seeing the actual numbers.

    2) There’s more here than meets the eye. Somebody (private owners I guess) is controlling that line of scrimmage and I don’t believe it’s Ambrosie.

    As to Dunk’s credibility?  Still intact. What I didn’t like was this phrasing:

    “There are over 37 million people who live in Canada and the CFL wanted to be treated as a special case.“

    In my opinion Justin, the CFL is a special case, and both sides could have worked harder, earlier, to signify that.
    But it didn’t happen and I hope we get that announcement today.

    (Marty York has tweeted again today still saying it will happen)

    Marty York 😂 I have a hard time believing that guy

    In a play such as this, the instigator usually gets the benefit of a doubt, depending on a number of factors. One of the factors, being an agitator like Tkachuk, moves the needle more to the intent side as opposed to unfortunate accident. 
    Did Tkachuk plan it? Of course not. He’s not that smart. But, could he have adjusted the skate angle? I think so. We, on the TV feed, could not see the right angle, but one knows when there is danger in an upcoming hit. Did he hold up his skate too long?

    It’s Tkachuk, and his reputation, and thats why there are questions.

    No one is disagreeing with you there.

    No it doesn't make Maurice look like a fool. He lost one of his best players on a reckless play by a known agitator. He's pissed.

    Flames suck.

    Of course he’s upset. Who wouldn’t be? But every time a player gets injured by another player, the coach can just go off and say “100% intentional” when they have no idea?

    It's hard to say what Tkachuk's plan was. At best it was incredibly reckless.

    Oh for sure. Hard plays in to the boards like that can be incredibly reckless. But Maurice has to be 100% sure that it was intentional if he is gonna call him out for that. Otherwise it can make him look like the fool.

    Because it always happens with guys like that. "Whoops I hurt your star, totes an accident" 

    Once maybe, but when it's a pattern then that excuse is gone and you're just a cheap shot artist.

    That doesn’t make this play intentional. I can understand why people are mad or upset

    This. Was absolutely intentional. That kid is a piece of **** in a human suit. 

    As a flames fan and a jets fan I was really looking forward to this series. But how can you be so sure it was intentional? You should go tell the nhl since you know it was absolutely intentional

    Intentional? I don't think so but if you were told before the game that Tkachuk would take out someone for the rest of the playoffs would you be surprised? Crickets.

    Well yes and no. That same question could be applied to buff. Just because someone is bigger and stronger doesn’t mean he’s going out there looking to hurt people and injure them.
