Yeah, that's probably enough. Most people probably aren't willing to risk several hundred dollars just for the stupid novelty of throwing a fish.
- BINGO!

So if it happens again tomorrow is it worth talking about then?

Nashville fans need to act like they've been there before. Oops, nevermind

Naa they just need to remember they are dealing with a snowflake hockey organization (PENS) who wants to run to mommie (police) every time someone throws a dead fish on the ice.... its a fish, its a tradition...... good grief you bunch of pussies, hockey players and fans are supposed to be tough.... except for the pens, i guess they get a pass on that too.

3 wins from the cup is what matters.

(frank) the process!
Trust the results!

I would say it's very similar to cod. Sometimes it has kind of a sweet taste to it but it's definitely like a mild white fish that's like flakey like tilapia.. Sometimes they taste a little earthy though given they are the sluts of the water and eat a bunch of nasty poop. Gotta be fried in cornmeal with some really good dipping sauces tho. With a side of hush puppies and fries. (frank)ing delicious.

How dare people want laws enforced? What a bunch of snowflakes. What kinda world is this that they want laws followed and enforced? My god, the cucks are winning.

Like I said. Boring series.

Context.. if you are going to charge the preds fan then you should stop hat trick celebrations and Detroit fans...

It's not like there hasn't been a precedent set regarding arrests made after the fan of an opposing team throws something on the ice. In 2016 a Detroit fan was arrested or disturbing a public assembly for throwing an octopus on the ice in Boston. Also, the NHL asked the FL Panthers to stop encouraging the fans to throw rats on the ice; when the fans continued to throw rats the panthers began to receive 2 minute penalties every time play was disrupted.

While I think it is ridiculous to arrest someone for throwing something on the ice I do agree that penalizing the team makes some sense. Regardless, you can see this is not just something that occurs in Pittsburgh.

I love how Sid adjusted his face off style throughout the game. He was getting eaten alive through the first half, then switches to a lower on knee style and barely lost any afterward.

I know peeps don't put much stock in FO% but the more we keep their D from possessing the puck up top in our zone the better IMO.

It's not Pittsburgh tradition, though.

If I were to throw one of Dolly's implants (or the carcass of a Bluetick coonhound) on the ice during Game 3, y'all would be in uproar.

You're right. There is 0 difference between a dead stinky fish and a hat. Haha your logic is funny.


Edit: also context is important. The squid is a tradition for after a win. Not during the game. Also only for in Detroit. If you want to throw a dead fish in the ice in Nashville go ahead, but don't be mad if other teams punish you for it.

What exactly is the difference?

One is that I'd eat a hat before a cat fish. The other is you know just about everything. Do i need to list the fundamental differences between a hat and fish?

What are the fundamental differences between the two objects in terms of said objects being thrown on the ice?

There have been some very strange arguments during these playoffs, but this fish one is the strangest.

I don't watch Dertoit games. So when is the squid thrown? Also it really doesn't change anything since each arena can be different on letting dead things be thrown on their ice.

The fact one is gross dead and smelly the other is a head cover. Also why they are thrown. One is a celebration of what just happened on the ice. The other is a celebration of being a fan, its more of a look at meeeee I'm such a big fan I'll carry a dead thing around to prove it.

1. It is an octopus not a squid.
2. They are thrown before, during, and after the game.
3. They are regularly thrown on the ice at Detroit road games.

Honestly it is better than arguing about 3 plays over and over for 48 hours.

But in terms of inconvenience and such there is really no difference?

And if the owners of the arena allow that then ok. But if they want to punish someone for breaking the rules then also ok. Right?

Simple: hats are universally acceptable forms of celebration for an achievement in all arenas for all players. Octopi/squid/whatever are local forms of something for something at a specific location for a specific group of players (ie the local team)

In addition to the fact that I think only Lady Gaga would consider wearing a octopi on her head, while nobody else in their right mind would do so
