Well one team is the Bruins so by default you must despise them. The second knocked you out of winning a championship. Gotta up those levels of vitriol buds.

Could care less for the canes, but as you so rightly said, it’s the Bruins, default hate! Edited May 6, 2022 by The Teal Terror Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It just represents to me how foolish management can be, expecting a career average-to-good NHL goalie to be your answer for playoff success. Mike Smith is what he is. He’s not going to suddenly be elite. Also, I was watching the Penguins and Rangers game, so I did see the goalie change. I tuned in at the beginning of overtime, so I ended up seeing almost a full game. Happy for Domingue. Great performance from all three goalies. One of those games you wish no one had to lose. Huge Ranger fan, obviously. I wanted DeSmith to come back in the game so badly because I so badly didn't want Domingue to be the one to let up the winning goal and obviously I wanted the Rangers to win. Nothing against DeSmith, what he was doing was awesome too. But to see Domingue come into the game in that situation and play as well as he did was awesome to see. As a Ranger fan I wanted to see the Rangers win, but, as a goalie I didn't wanna see Domingue lose. Weird situation. Ended up not mattering in the end.

That doesn't sound like Boston or Pittsburgh at all. Honestly I didn't think that Carter ran Shesterkin. I definitely didn't try to move out of the way but I think it was just such a bang bang play with Shesterkin running into Fox first and then turning around and boom there was Carter too. I hate seeing Shesterkin flop like that though. Stop dude, you look like a soccer player. He's done that before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaveByRichter35 Posted May 7, 2022 Share Posted May 7, 2022 But yes my hatred for Pittsburgh runs deep. I hate how blatantly obvious it is that they get so many calls their way. Its like the league isn't even trying to hide it anymore. I am not saying that as a Ranger fan, I have seen it happen with Pittsburgh against other teams as well.

Pastrnak hits Raanta's head with hand and doesn't even try to hide it. And what did he get, 2min penalty? There seems to be a lack of respect to other players at the moment. And this should be the most professional hockey there is. It's not really lifting the value of the NHL that some of the teams are to play with 3rd goalie in the playoffs. Not to say they aren't good enough but something isn't right in the game. Edited May 8, 2022 by ArdeFIN 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's his famous move when someone goes after Pussy Marchand. Sad he had to use his stick as weapon and he couldn't uses his fists. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moog's Harrison mask was deemed illegal due to its cat's eye cage. Greg whipped up a few hand made cages, drove them to nearby Toronto International Airport (YYZ) and had them shipped to Team Canada, already at the tournament. They were a tad out of alignment but the bars were close enough to satisfy the officials of the IIHF. On all of his traditional cages Greg had a jig set up but these ones were all slightly different, each one an original hand made item. The following season my Harrison mask, complete with its cats eye cage, was deemed illegal in the league where I was playing. I phoned Greg and he provided me with one of his "legal" cages ($30). Within a few months the league rescinded the ban and I immediately reverted to my Harrison cats eye. The bummer part to this tale - I lost track of the hand made, rare and slightly out of proportion Harrison cage. I'm wondering if Andy used the shield in the above photo whilst his Harrison cage was in transit. Another goaltender related hockey story from the past provided by this 72 year old goalie, too ornery to quit playing in the nets.

The Teal Terror Posted May 9, 2022 Share Posted May 9, 2022 With regards to the three incidents posted here. A slight embellishment by Shesterkin in my opinion, a blatant run at Raanta and an unfortunate ‘part of the job’ moment for Keumper. But, what will be the backlash for said incidents from the teams and the league? Let’s watch! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A.YOUNGoalie13 Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 When Kuemper went down I had immediate flashbacks to when Grubauer got hurt. And then Bernier got hurt. And then the Hamburlgar had to come in. Got a dub, but scary times for us Avs fans. Francouz is better than most people say he is. He plays kinda dusty but he did his job twice.

Luckily Colorado has a lot of time on their hands to let Kuemper's eye swelling to dissipate. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RichMan Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 Yes, alot of goalie bullying going on. Maybe reinstating some enforcers would calm things down. As for the cage, maybe the cheater cage will replace the cat-eye as the default. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seagoal Posted May 15, 2022 Share Posted May 15, 2022 I spotted some sort of tape or brace on Smith's blocker thumb. I wonder if this was for some sort of minor thumb injury or just to make his blocker more snug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
