Weber may have gotten away with one there. Target will be on his back though. It's not the dirtiest play I've ever seen in the playoffs, that honour belongs to none other than Dale Hunter. I almost wrote something about Zetterberg not needing to grind for the puck with 1 second left, but I'd be in the wrong there

Also love the Penguins choking.

I know y'all hate NY, but F you and go Rangers!

I got no problem if NY beats Ottawa. Lundquist deserves a series win, so I'm not rooting for it (y'all are the Rangers after all), but I'm not rooting against it. My energy is tied up in rooting against the Penguins.

And yeah, the Dale hit was beyond dirty -- he also got suspended for 21 games.

Weber not suspended

ETA: I agree he should have been suspended, though. Maybe this is the NHL's way of making up for the dives in the Vancouver series last season?

What happened to him? I haven't been able to catch much NHL in the last couple of months.

And that is B.S. about Weber, especially since he is a repeat offender. Maybe this will spark some fire in Detroit? Or the favor gets returned.

Is every NHL game going to be on some kind of TV in the US this year, thanks to the new NBC Sports Network?

I think I'm gonna focus on sharks/blues.


would be my 2nd pick. Followed by coyotes/blackhawks. I don't really care about the NYR/Ottawa series.

Depending on how much studying I feel like doing, I might stay up and watch the coyotes/blackhawks game.

I'm not sure what you are asking.

Are you asking if all the regular season games will be televised next year?

Or if all the playoffs games will be televised this season?

I saw a commercial ad claiming every game will be on TV and pretty sure it was NBC Sports Network related but that's all I have.

Yeah, I meant the playoffs. Sorry I didn't clarify.

So every game will either be on NBC, CNBC, NHL Network, or NBC Sports?

It sucks that I don't get either NHL Network or NBC Sports where I'm at. I do think I get CNBC.

I'll have to eventually summarize his reign of terror, but I don't want to ruin my good Caps mojo.

This one is nice too "NHL admits linesman erred in not whistling offside prior to Danny Briere's 1st goal for Flyers Wed." sorry can't seem to link the actual ESPN story on this text thingy

I think the fact the Pens had a 3-1 power play advantage and no one is talking about the missed icing call on their third goal pretty much precludes any ability they have to bitch about the officiating. Hey, how about play some defense and not blow a three goal lead?
