Yeah and imagine Arvidsson being out 4-6 weeks with that injury, wot a wimp!

Why back in the day you shook that off and didn't miss a shift. 8-)

Blues’ Robert Bortuzzo suspended four games for cross-check on Arvidsson

https://www.sportsnet.ca/hockey/nhl/blu ... arvidsson/



Sure would like to know what was going through his head on the second head?
Arvidson is a know diver. He goesn down faster than a whores panties after midnight at the first touch of contact. And like Freddie Mercury, arvidson makes sure every knows he is going down.

Boruzzo was frustrated because Arvidson went down into the net, it looked horrible but Arvidson probably wasn't hurt at that point... and Bortuzzo slowed up before hitting him. It was a cross checking penalty for sure at that point. Then, when bortuzzo knew he was going to the box, frustration kicked in, And he figured he might as well pay full price for the penalty.

Did He go to far, yes. Deserve the suspension, yes.

Easy to follow his thinking and emotion, yes.

Intend to injure, probably not.

Harold, Larry and Darian would be the equivalent of Dana Murzin in today's NHL
Over the Internet, you can pretend to be anyone or anything.

I'm amazed that so many people choose to be complete twats.

What did Guddy say when he arrived in Vancouver? I want the other team to hate playing against me or some such thing. Uh huh.

:lol:

He called out Tyler Bo-sack and Omar Khadri apparently.

So Babs turned Mitch the Bitch into a snitch....then he held the teams hand onto the flame. Interesting.

I wonder what The Cock did to 7 million Williom to create that little puss bubble

Babcock was so overrated, same with holland, if not for Lidstrom those guys would be washed out of the league (maybe not quite). I love how holland got Neal and all of a sudden he’s a genius, when the team primarily chia’s team is doing the work.

Good players make coaches and managers look good. Late breaking news here folks!!!


What exactly would you have Holland do in five months? He hired a good coach. Drafted a decent looking prospect in Broberg.

Not very surprising the things we’re hearing about Babcock. Apple doesn’t fall far from the Tree, same sort of deal with his protege in YYC. Dropped the N bomb several times towards me in the dressing room in my rookie year because he didn’t like my choice of music. First one to admit I rebelled against him. Wouldn’t you? And instead of remedying the situation, he wrote a letter to John McDonough and Stan Bowman to have me sent down to the ECHL. 20 year old on pace for 20 goals in his first pro year with zero PP/PK time was off to a great start in his Pro career.
Well this never-heard-of-him 30-year-old career minor-leaguer has set off a shitstorm on social media this evening.

The guy he is accusing of using the N-word towards him 10 years ago is Bill Peters, present head coach of the Flames.

The alleged incident(s) occurred allegedly in the dressing room of the 2009-10 Rockford IceHogs (allegedly).

He posted this during the 3rd period of the Flames game in Pittsburgh tonight.

Social Justice Warriors are screaming for Peters' head... based upon this tweet! :crazy:

Peters was not made available to the press following the game and Flames GM Treliving said this about that:

https://twitter.com/NHLFlames/status/11 ... 1877086208

Treliving used the phrase "you people" twice in that 55-second clip! :look:

Forget Peters... FIRE TRELIVING!!! :evil: :twisted: :evil:


Wait... his first 2 sentences... is Alui making this out to be more of a rookie-abuse thing that a racist thing?
