Default Re: NHL '11 - '12 Thread

Matt, both Shaw and Hayes have looked very impressive in their first games. Loved Shaw getting a goal in his first NHL game after getting roughed up in his first NHL fight.

I see the NHL has already recinded the game misconduct called on Lucic. A slow motion breakdown of this play leads me to believe that the slash on Burrows wasn't near as bad as it looked originally. Regarding Lucic, I assume the league is saying he wasn't truly "on" the bench before getting into his altercation.

Watched Don Cherry between periods of the Wings - Leafs game. He basically said exactly what I did...he likes Marchand, but that hit is one of the dirtiest plays in hockey. He said he was suprised Marcharnd didn't leave the ice on a stretcher, basically calling the Casucks out for their lack of toughness.
