hf101 Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 This just got way more interesting, apparently Stone says Subban threatened him prior to the slash according to Brian Murray. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blocker Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 Subban slashed Stone. It was a two hander that deserved a major. Giving him a game misconduct for that is kinda iffy. But, any punishment beyond that is not right. And, if was the official, I'd given Stone 2 for diving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Commander Clueless Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 Fun game, gotta love the hate. Dumb move by Subban, and he admitted it. I would hate to see Stone out if that's what ends up happening, though...he's been Ottawa's best forward this year. Even if he plays hurt that's a big blow to the Sens. Call on the ice was easily the right one in my mind. As for a suspension, I don't know. Obviously the league doesn't think it deserves it, but on the other hand you can't really argue this is a "hockey play gone bad" situation. I'll go with #2 - ejection fitting the crime. It's in the rulebook, so it's hard to argue against that. I think if I was Quintal, though, I'd really consider handing down a suspension. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jammer2 Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 I thought Stone helped embellesh the whole thing, but a 2 handed baseball swing??? You gotta eject him for that, or risk losing control of the series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyerrod Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 I thought Stone helped embellesh the whole thing, but a 2 handed baseball swing??? You gotta eject him for that, or risk losing control of the series.Let me give you a two handed chop on your wrists ABOVE the gloves......I am pretty certain that you would "embellish" too. He hit him hard enough to fracture his wrist unless the doctors are lying. All the Sens players will have to do is say "BOO!" and Subban will be flopping on the ice like he was Matthew Barnaby. As a player he has ZERO class to go with his skills. Just how loud are the fans going to cry when someone takes out Carey Price? Subban has set the bar, now his team is going to have to answer for it. Things to remember, Puck was nowhere near the play and Subban was mad because he was not paying attention to the best player the Sens have. His answer was a freaking two handed chop ABOVE the gloves. Are we supposed to believe that a guy who can deflect a puck out of the air traveling at close to 100 miles an hour has trouble hitting a hockey stick on a player skating 10 MPH? Subban is a punk, pure and simple. The difference between him and Aaron Hernandez is Subban's choice of weapon was a hockey stick and not a gun.......

He acts stupid sometimes. He's also extremely talented. In interviews he seems like a nice guyand is very articulate.. I'd go for a beer with him. Hernandez killed one person on purpose and shot another...and likely more. How'd you like to have him over to your place? The guy is a psychopath.

B21 Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 Sorry but anyone saying Stone embellished needs to have their head examined. If a guy was hit hard enough to cause a fracture to a bone, he didn't embellish. This wasn't a hockey play gone bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yave1964 Posted April 17, 2015 Author Share Posted April 17, 2015 The wife is even more excited than I am about tonights game between Ottawa and Montreal. We are hoping the feeling of general nastiness continues. I do not care if it makes us out to be knuckle dragging uneducated fans, the truth is I love the nasty stuff. I hope these two teams absolutely destroy each other in this series and every player from the winning team is a walking talking bruise from head to toe going into the next round, especially if the Wings somehow get past Tampa.

flyercanuck Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 @flyerrod Lol. He's definately a love him or hate him personality. I'm not a fan of his antics but thats all they are. Hernandez is a menace to society. Subbans slash was bad and got what it deserved. If you got life for a two hander the league would suffer and so would this board.

J0e Th0rnton Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 Those composite sticks HURT. That was an overhand two hander. Might look like a light tap to people watching. But whack your arm bone on something. Now imagine the force of someone swinging a stick designed to hit things harder and faster than a heavy wooden stick with less force applied. Everyone can shoot as Hard as Al Mac with these sticks nowdays Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's the issue?It was more for the setup for the flyers fans with Crosby and Malkin getting penetrated every game. Oh the jokes that could come out of that. I agree that our guys get hammered at a higher rate than most, and the officials turn a blind eye, or at least seem to. I still go back to how Sid got hammered by Staal and Dubinscum last playoffs.

blocker Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 Not an option in the poll, but I would have given Subban a double-minor for that. That's a pretty fair assessment of the degree of the offense, and the damage done. Slashes happen all the time. And, the game is played at such intensity and speed, that these things are bound to happen. IMHO, Senators have made way too much fuss over this. Their preoccupation with Subban takes focus away from the series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
