Reeves needs to beat Suter's a$$.  I have seen enough of that dirty $hit behind the back.

Looks like he's going to get Moosed ...Sometime this series. Big hit at least.

Wow.
Kap slowly to the bench.
Hope it was just the wind knocked out of him.

Suter crosschecked him.

He clearly did a crosscheck without a referee call. Wow.

Gotta love Bally sports screen protector commercial. So needed

[Jimtown guy]

This has been a hell of a game. Little bit of everything topped off with overtime 

[EmptyShelf]

What's funny is that SUITS is going to get destroyed when he is least expecting it in this series.  Reeves or Lou will find a way to pay the outstanding bill he owes.  I hope it is particularly brutal - hate that pu$$y.  Biggest waste of $98MM in NHL history - it was always Shea Weber, not that effeminate KwikTrip tool.

Some fans I talked to thought this series would be 'boring'.
It has been anything but.

That's the kind of crap the referees need to clean up.

The league doesn't want their superstars injured, but they allow that?

Suits is a legacy NHL'er.  The refs give him a wide berth, so Reeves should just 'self sacrifice' and take a run at him where he cannot hide - in the corner, and beat his ass bad.

From what I have seen.  I don't think we will see Faber in the AHL.  He has taken 2 shifts in last 4 minutes (in a tie playoff game).  Dean must like what he is seeing.  I have not seen him make a mistake - has looked very solid and has some juice in his stick and feet.

The only reason to send him to the Ahl would be to improve his scoring touch.

Or just clean his clock after the whistle.

On the other hand, I would love to see Kap walk his a$$ for the game-winner, and they just go right at him for the rest of the series with the puck - he will wilt, and begin swinging the old purse.

[Tomdog]

They may need to start a score sheet of all the cheap shots taken.

If a game gets away from them, even up the score sheet at that time.

Right now they need to score.

[Jimtown guy]

Damn 

[bbgarnett]

DallASS is a big town, and they seem to always pull for the big towns (unless, of course, it is Gay Bay in football).

Holy mother of God

[EmptyShelf]

Oettinger is really making MN high school goalies proud.  

[Jimtown guy]

Robbed again 

[EmptyShelf]

Need another star to step up (looking at you Boldy - you are due).

[Jimtown guy]

Got lucky there 

[bbgarnett]

Ugh

[EmptyShelf]

Dumb Penalty
