Game Time : Wednesday 7

Game Story : After losing to a Stanley Cup finalist on Monday the Jets face a Stanley Cup finalist on Wednesday. Oh, and that POS Malkin is in our house. Did I say I hated fighting?

Tragic Number : 25

This is exactly why this is so brutal.  They called up a mercenary, he did his job, and no one really suffers except Toby and the Jets.

So what happens if Jets call up Peluso and he elbows Crosby in the head?  Oh well.  Its ridiculous.  NHL has to put a stop to these mercenary call ups and start punishing the coach and team.

They've been talking about the issue of players running goalies because of the Concussion Protocol requiring time in the quiet room.  The idea being, imagne its OT of Game 7 and a 4th line player runs the goalie, goalie is "fine" but is forced to go to the quiet room and his team is scored on and loses.

Start punishing the team.  If the PA is so ass-backwards they wont cooperate on player safety, punish the coaches and teams.

Yeah, Thorbs three minutes of ice time really made a difference...

Petan 43 games 1g 11a -10

Thorburn 51 games 3g 1a -5

So...Thorburn better at goals and +/-, Petan better at assists.

Great discussion

I still cheer for Petan... Maurice jobbed him.

Look at his first 15 games... he's getting 7 pts, -2 and about 15 mins per game, 19-20 shifts... quarterbacking powerplay (5 pp assists)

Next 15 games... his minutes get cut to ~10 per game, 15 shifts... and he's 4pts, -1

Last 14 games...  around 8 minutes ice time, about 12 shifts... zero pts, -8

This looks more like a player losing his confidence than anything else...

oh I wish that the Penguins organization would face a hearing as well

Like it matters.  He was just going to get sent back down anyway. 

I take it that the suspensions don't cover the AHL does it?

meanwhile in Pittsburgh the Pens fans are probably crying foul over lowry's hit on Malkin being ignored
