Rempe can't skate, is a terrible hockey player, but the fear with someone as big and unskilled as he is, you know an illegal hit is coming sooner or later, intentional or not. And, coming from someone that size can definitely hurt someone. Should that happen, I do believe an eye for an eye is the right play. Take one of their guys out.

Martin Necas.

McAvoy putting shoulder and elbow into Kampf's head, drawing blood from the nose- no call.

This was nice to see a no-call on, though. It should have been holding the stick (not called), and then Boston fans wanted a call for roughing or boarding.

Yep. Nylander, Matthews and Marner got into it on the bench during game 3. Nylander, before last night, hadn't scored in 14 games or something ridiculous.

I watched the game. Boston had 1 SOG in the 1st. Throughout the game there was no real Boston push that didn't look out of sorts. Leafs matched physicality, except the Bruins were not called for some obvious intentional cheap shots. The longer Boston went without scoring, the worse they played.

Multiple sports media outlets reporting the contract extension for RBA might be off the table. https://www.thescore.com/nhl/news/2904953

And, of course, there's a ref within 20 feet who does nothing as TDA is in obvious pain from a pretty hard whack.

Not good. Does Lemieux draw in to deal with the worst hockey player in the league (Rempe)?

Motherfugger, McCauley! Horrible call. Keep giving the Isles PPs and Carolina not getting any.

Wasn't a full 2 days. Played Thursday night and played Saturday afternoon. That's what I said.

Isles sat on their 3-0 lead and look what happened. Aho needs to show up about now.

Yep. I said that when game 4 started. Short rest from a night game to the afternoon. Pyotr is excellent on the road. And Freddie, from what I'm seeing, hasn't been very good the last 2 games. And, in the playoffs, your bar starts at "very good." You want it all? Then your goalie needs to be superb.

You're right. But I'm watching on Bally. I'll have to switch to the networks come Friday or Saturday when the NY series starts. Nothing better than having Tripp, Mike, Hannah and whatshisname.

That penalty shot was pure fugging beauty!

Wait, Orlov gets called for the exact same thing Anders Lee did 5 seconds before without a call?

Canes PK basically sucks this series. Given up 3 PP goals thru 4+ games.

Damn, I argued with myself about changing to Turbo....

I'll go with Necas tonight.

Was there a morning skate?

ooooops... my bad. Missed that.

It's playoff hockey and if anyone thinks the same penalties called during the regular season will be called needs to watch some more hockey. And let's not get caught up in the "horrifying photos" crap. It's not as though Anders Lee is some choirboy on the ice- he's gotten away with plenty already through 4 games in this series, not the least of which was one of several Isles players going after Guentzel after he scored the empty netter in Game 2. Hey, Isles fans, stop whining and play hockey.

I'm back and without, much fanfare, 4 games into Round 1 we finally have a winner! Technically, there are no "standings" since only 1 person has picked a winner. Nonetheless... organicrusty1201 ... and everyone else.... nothing.

Road game 2OT. I never thought the Canes would win both road games. But I'm okay- Canes will win Tuesday. That being said, I do believe Kochetkov should have played today because of the short rest.

Quick non-Canes question... How many times have the TB Lightning put Sergachev on the shelf, only to circumvent the cap and bring him back fir the playoffs.
