Line chart

Was Murray injured against at. Lawrence?

I thought they could onlly give 5 on a review?

I just looked for this again. The rule changed before the season started.  I thought they could call a minor on video review if not called on the ice but what this says is that the refs can wipe out a major penalty or downgrade a major to a minor.  I don't read this as stating that a minor can be called on video review if no penalty was called on the ice - but that is what I thought some articles had said in September.  It also seems that the officials can wipe out a major but not a minor.::screwy::

When using video replay, officials will have the ability to review a major penalty and downgrade it to a minor penalty or no penalty. Officials can add to a major penalty during the review (game misconduct or disqualification).

The off season changes.

Castagna never does anything.

Never.

I really upset you guys.  Sorry.

[arugula]

Castagna never does anything.  Only 2 offensive zone faceoff wins in the last 30 seconds.

I'm apparently living rent free in your head. I'll remember to never criticize any Cornell player ever again. JC has two non empty goals this year. Nominate him for the hobey baker.

Please also note, I said at the beginning that JC is good on face offs.

"Cornell thinks they won it." Clarkson announcer guy really paying attention.

Um, maybe he's been been blinded by the light of his color guy's jacket.

This pattern harks back to the tartan slacks (more red black brown than green, tho) worn with leather jackets by NHL players in the '70s and in Slapshot.

Mom is no longer helping  him dress. I hope to God this is not a Clarkson reunion year blazer. It would be okay as the lining.

Every Canadian who makes it to the booth thinks they're Don Cherry.

You said a dumb thing one would expect on reddit.  This is not, or at least was not, the place for that kind of lofo effort.

Be better.

I was thinking Lindsey Nelson.

He said a totally reasonable thing, and moreover it was his own opinion on an internet hockey forum. Who cares?

[Trotsky]

Who cares?

Yes, arguing with a fool is not worth further keystr

Weren't you the guy in the other chat lecturing people to behave themselves?

What are you my mother?  Be better? I offered an opinion about a seemingly underperforming hockey player which seems to have really bothered you.  

Last time you slandered me because I deigned to defend urban living.  Next time I suspect you'll argue with me when I suggest that the sky is blue.  

JC has two goals.  Never mind.  All Cornell players are all-stars.

A poster on a hockey forum called the most talented and highest drafted player on the team a disappointment because that player has scored two goals the whole season and is averaging under half a point per game and now you're calling the poster names lol

Castagna has outstanding hockey sense and he is only 19.  There are things that don't show up as stats.

For sure.  Lots of upside. But I'm not sure why saying that a scorer not scoring is disappointing struck a nerve or is controversial. A team full of guys with outstanding hockey sense who never score won't cut it.

[BearLover]

I'm pretty sure if you asked Castagna himself, he'd tell you this has been a really tough year and that he isn't happy with his own play. He'd probably agree with arugula that his season has been a colossal disappointment. The extreme visceral reaction on this forum whenever anybody says something negative about the team is getting weird at this point. arugula's  post was obviously premised on Castagna being supremely talented and capable of much more. Which is true, and which is why his lack of production has been shocking.
