I have to laugh since all Vegas fans want DeBeor's head after starting Nosek on the top line after being out with injury so long. I think Minny got lucky but I would love for them to have Vegas exit round 1! Yeah I like Debeor, but fuck Vegas and hope Minny sweeps them. Although I highly dislike Minny as well. Is it possible for both teams to loose the round? lmao What's there to dislike about Minny's current incarnation/roster? They even dumped Boudreau. |

I dislike Dumba and Kaprisov is a beast but has displayed tendencies to dive (for no reason). Pretty much they did a reset and are back in playoff contention before the sharks did lol. |

Saw Kadri’s hit on Faulk that got a match penalty last night. Can someone explain to me how the NHL defines blindside? Not asking sarcastically.
Either way Kadri getting suspended in the first is becoming a playoff tradition, like the handshakes at the end of the series.

Saw Kadri’s hit on Faulk that got a match penalty last night. Can someone explain to me how the NHL defines blindside? Not asking sarcastically. Either way Kadri getting suspended in the first is becoming a playoff tradition, like the handshakes at the end of the series. Okay I will say it. I don't know why this is such a bad hit. Kadri comes from the side, yes, but he is in front of Faulk the whole time. If Faulk is looking straight ahead in the direction in which he is skating there is no way he can't see Kadri coming. I know he probably didn't because he was in the process of shooting. I don't care though, that's not Kadri's fault and that doesn't make Faulk unavailable to be hit. Head contact being the principle point is another discussion but I don't see how that is called the blindside. Unlike the Savard and Booth hits, which is basically what put the blindside hit to the head rule in place, Kadri never comes from a vantage point where Faulk couldn't see him. He is well in front of Faulk. I know it might look similar but I think the difference is palpable and in terms of how I define 'blindside' it means that in whatever way you are traveling the hitter is coming from beyond your peripheral vision. That's true for Savard and Booth but not for Faulk. I don't think that's splitting hairs, it just means that you don't need to have one player going south and another going north to have a legal hit. Case in point: Thornton on Perron. The easy answer is Perron didn't see Thornton coming at all so it was a blindside. The smart answer is Perron is looking backwards the whole time up until contact, Thornton was in front of Perron and hit him from the side so it was a legal hit. In fact to me, Sharks blinders off, that was a perfect example of a clean hit, not Jumbo's fault Perron is looking behind him the whole time and anyone with any sense can recognize that can't be put into the rules either. Kadri doesn't deserve the benefit of the doubt, no issue there and it does look similar, but it is not the same thing. |

Hard to tell from what I see if that was primary contact but no doubt there was contact. |

The NHL needs to change the offside challenge rule. The Wild just had a goal waived off because a player was an inch offside 13 seconds before the goal was scored.

Worst part is, when the Kraken get here there are two of his "darlings" in the same division of the sharks. People keep saying the Kraken wont be as good as Vegas was but I just don't see that happening with the exp draft set up and not to mention *cough, cough* $650 mil payout. |
