That is crazy Nurse got suspended for game 5 for "instigating" a fight with all of the dirty poo the Golden Knights were doing. Meanwhile, I think Pieterangelo gets off scot-free for one of the biggest cheapshot slashes against one of the best players in the league.

If Nurse gets a 1 game suspension, that dirty prick deserves a minimum 10 game suspension. No place in the game for that - no physicality or big hit or anything - just a pussy move to try and break somebody's arm.

One of the worst slashes I’ve ever seen, literally hacked his hands. Worse than Turbos but without the break it seems.

Canes v oilers final I think

 

The one against Turbo was dirty, but as least he was trying to make a "defensive" play (I use the term defensive loosely there). Pieterangelo's slash was against a top 5 player who didnt have the puck with full power coming downwards. Honestly might be the dirtiest slash I have ever seen live. I'm glad Draisaitl didn't get hurt

I still can’t quite believe it happened as it was so bad. I can’t believe there are no repercussions.

If this Florida score holds, would the NHL start the Eastern Conference Finals earlier than Western Finals?

Very possible the West won't be decided until late into Tuesday, which means I can't see that series starting any earlier than Friday.

I can’t remember what they did last year. If Florida wins tonight or Sunday I suspect we’ll start Wednesday.

    • The era that you played in, and, more importantly, who you played with actually matters. Honestly, that's why these issues will be debated forever, as it's just difficult to say that this person or that person is better when you're discussing the passage of time. As for me, after Rice, Moss and maybe Megatron and T.O., there's probably a dozen or so guys that can be argued about to the cows come home. Personally, I'm not putting Fitz, Harrison, Johnson, Evans, or especially D-Hop, Jefferson, Chase or Hill definitely in front of Smitty (and Colston ain't even in the discussion). Context and all that stuff actually matters. Things like the triple crown matter. 
    • Some of those guys? Yeah honestly you can.  I would 100% take Steve Smith over Larry Fitzgerald, Harrison, even Mike Evans. He is 100% a better player than those guys in his prime. If you look at the numbers Smith is historically under targeted in comparison to his contemporaries. He was only targeted 150 times or more only once in his career. Fitzgerald for example was targeted well above that 9 different seasons. Had Smith played with Peyton, Brady, Greatest Show on Turf, or even with Warner in Arizona he would broken records. His 2008 season was ridiculous accumulating 1400 yards in 13 games on less than 80 receptions. All time he also lost a season due to injury in 04, barely played WR as a rookie. Got robbed of 1k season with Clausen. Thats easily another 1800yds minimum that should have been tacked on to his #s. The only guys I’d say for certain are better than Smith are Rice, Moss, TO, Megatron, Julio Jones, Antonio Brown.
    • I parked in this lot a few times. It would take over and hour to get out of that lot after games. Never again
