In our day Dubinsky would have to meet Odjick at Center ice 👊 Nhl fans will pay $200 to watch Crosby

The instigator rule serves to protect the weasels in the game

Jero and I were talking about the pussifacation of the game. The instigator is a perfect example of that.

I can't believe Dubinsky only got one game. What a joke. Not only did he crosscheck one of the best player of this generation in the neck; crosschecks him again while Crosby's down on the ice, breaking his stick across his back. Should have been 5 games minimum

The stuff that can happen after a clean, solid hit doesn't help either.


If the league or refs were to deal properly with infractions as they occur, the need for retribution would be less to non existant. When refs manage a game and let stuff go that otherwise would be called, guys expect they will have a freebie or see a phantom call. Shouldn't be any thought of evening up pp opportunities if one team is dirtier than the other.

Although a hilarious episode....if I'm not getting regular sex I can't focus on anything else.

Agreed. When I'm not getting it on the regular, the crack of dawn isn't safe around me.

Dubinsky got 1 game for that hit on Crosby?

I'd bet you my left nut that if that was Burrows the NHL would have suspended him for 10 games at least.

What does the NHL (frank)ing do? Roll some dice and go "yeah that's a good number"?

It's going to take a player getting his career ended for anything to happen. And it's inevitable the way the league is right now

You take the clean hits out of the game because it's "too dangerous" but let crap like this slide? What the (frank) has our league become

Yowza I'm sure he's going to get a talkin' to from PR, but there's not too much there to disagree with...

Thanks for the share, Jake just got a few more twitter followers, I thought the Dubinsky shot should have been more than one myself... Always makes me wonder if the league has motives like "We need to make hockey in Columbus work" at the beginning of the year. Bettman seems like he would do anything to grow the business.

You might be alone on this, Jake certainly disagrees with the ruling, BTW can he be disciplined for ranting about player safety?

If this isnt a fake account... JV should shut his mouth right now. He's going to one day be facing discipline for a hit... it's most certain because he hits a lot and he hits hard.

Yep. Here's the bio for the account that was quoted:

"Vancouver Canucks.F*ck McDavid. Parody account,but not really."

The real Virtanen account is Jake_Virtanen. The parody is Virtanen_18.

My football team won the Vanier cup!!! I didn't watch a game all year, probably haven't watched a game in 15 years, or ever, but I went to school at ubc so that means my team actually won a title.
