12/7 Game Thread: Canes @ Winnipeg Puck Drop: 8:00PM

Nothing like paying for Cable just to have Bally Sports poo all over the bed during Canes games.

[Harbingers]

Cole has been a huge liability this game but they Jet just dove like a mofo.

Our discipline is an issue. Rod needs to get a hold of them as it will cost us in post season

[Anybodyhome]

If the Jets don't score by the 4 minute mark, the Canes will get called for something to get the Jets a 5 on 3.

[Harbingers]

Nino should have just shot that on the empty net. These guys can be too modest on offense sometimes.

Nice W. Let’s keep building back up. 

[Anybodyhome]

Where's that guy who said the Jets will win?

eh. Ian Cole is just a meathead, apparently.

Ya he was getting frustrated and just made a couple bone headed penalties. I don’t blame the 5 on him even though he did stick his leg out a bit, the jet def saw it coming and flopped. 
 

If you watch the clip of it from ice level here in slo-mo you can see him pull his knee up and forward after context and then extending it back to help him flip. Then he lays on the ice for 20 seconds faking injury until suddenly he’s fine and skating again the next minute. he should have gotten a game misconduct as well.
 

But teams know they are gonna get these calls against us cause of our ref/league issue right now.

Also if anyone sees a gif of Aho scooting across the ice that would be awesome to see.

Did Young Tro really get his chain yanked?

Ya, couldn’t find his cross, I’m assuming, either. Hopefully it was just lodged down in his equipment, or otherwise the other guy probably stole it.

Yea, Scheifele healed real quick from such a devastating hit. As Tripp pointed out, he was out on the Powerplay immediately.

The game of hockey has relatively few rules and only a handful of penalties when you compare it to baseball, football of basketball. That being said, the officiating in the NHL may be the most inconsistent relative to the other 3 sports. 

Carolina had 2 5-minute majors and game misconducts following plays that were questionable 2-minute penalties just based on the eyeball test.

Sandwiched between the 2 Carolina games which saw Trocheck and Ian Cole tossed, there was the debacle of the Jets-Toronto game where Pionk obviously stuck a knee out and put Sandin down. There was no call on the ice and Pionk got word Monday he was suspended for 2 games. If you were to look at all 3 plays- Trocheck's (sort of) hit on Thompson, Pionk knee to knee on Sandin, and last night's Ian Cole hit on Scheifele, the most egregious of the 3 was Pionk's knee on Sandin, yet there was no call made on the ice. Now he's out for 2 games. Think he would have been suspended had a 5-minute major/game misconduct been assessed on the play?

Based on what we've seen and not seen over these 3 specific incidents, I wouldn't be surprised if Ian Cole gets 2 games for his hit on Scheifele, although it was more painful to watch Scheifele looking for the ref and waiting for the call than the hit was. A pretty clear embellishment as well. 

Last night's game is an easy 4-1 win without the gift power plays awarded to the Jets. 23 PIM for the Canes to 6 PIM for the Jets. Tells me everything I need to know.
