Torts is torqued and with good reason. Shaw should have gotten five and a match. Awful call. The NHL will never, ever do anything to stop head shots. Stupid.

He had 10 (regular season) fights as a Penguin, all between 2003-2008. His 6 DC (rs) fights have been since 2017 (1/27/17 onward), plus 2 in the postseason.

Oshie is one of the biggest jagoffs in hockey and he's barely in the top three on his own team.

Punched a 'Cane three times in the back of the head in a scrum .... in front of one of the NHL's finest. No call.

Chasing hits like the old days. I don't think it's going to work for them this year.

Ready to see how the Canes try to answer this afternoon. They've lost the last 3 vs. the Caps the last two weeks and might need a little luck to beat them in Washington. Caps are ON just like last year at this time and their roster is better too. Rierden uses the same system as last few years and the players started getting back to it after the break. They will be very tough to beat.

Kucherov gets 1 game suspension, For TB, when it rains it pours, though he could have got more.

No way that’s a 5 minute major. Not when you have Tom f’in Wilson on your roster.

Agreed, Ovi's hit earlier in the game was just as egregious.

The Preds have more punks in their lineup than anyone in the NHL.

That was brutal. Svechknikov is a real promising rookie who has been pretty hot lately scoring, but Ovi just put him on ice.

Canes playing well down two forwards as Ferland also has an upper body injury after a Wilson collision, but they are all over the Caps tonight, Shots are like 26-9 and Canes have twice as many hits. Raleigh crowd is loving it.

Canes came out and defended their turf tonight. That is how you respond when down 0-2 at home.
