I'm not sure Bailey has enough brain left to be cerebral.
- JRR1285

Sorry, that was a typo. I mean cereal. Josh Bailey is a cereal player.

You're probably right though.

I'm hearing that if the Canucks are willing to eat a little bit of Salary it probably happens.

They've also been kicking tires on Chychrun and Nick Schmaltz, but it's more likely they get Gostisbehere and one of the forwards than Chychrun.
- BINGO!

Enjoy your second round exit you polite schmuck.

You could tell by his face he knew it was stupid right before and while he was doing it.

Yup. I think he had to spit, and it just happened Doughty was in his face. Dumb ass move either way and he deserves his punishment regardless of reasons.

Somebody said it on here yesterday. Miller spits almost like he has a tick. I honestly don't think he did it on purpose. I wonder if Doughty was like "Did you just (frank)ing spit on my face?".

I think he might get a game.

Yea I didn't really get the "it was an accident" excuse. I've never had to spit so bad that I let one fly when there are 5 people 6" from my face

I know he's not your typical scumbag player but I don't buy that excuse one bit. Unless a bug flew into his mouth there is no reason you need to spit that urgently

I think he might get a game.
- JRR1285

Probably. He isn't a dirty player, if anything he is too laid back sometimes

I think he might get a game.

That's a gift if he only gets one.

He is an excessive spitter. It's almost like a compulsion it seems. But I agree, he has to figure it out if that was actually an accident. Miller has never done anything remotely poopty since being with the Rangers.

There’s a joke here.

No idea. I honestly don't pay attention to whos available All I know is Tarasenko should be a little more noticeable, I'm sure he is trying to get used to the system, but haven't seen much of his great shot.
- mdw7413

Yea. He’ll get there. Hopefully he leaves Kane with Panarin and Kreider with Tarasenko and let the chemistry build. Centers will have to be sorted out

That's a gift if he only gets one.

Like I said. Maybe it's an auto 3 game thing. But he did not do it in the heat of a fight etc. It doesn't make any sense why he would spit on Doughty in that moment.

apparently the biggest thing that San Jose was looking in return for Timo Meier was guys with crazy names

I dont think it was on purpose in the sense he was like "I'm gonna spit in Doughty's face." It wasn't an accident in the sense he was going to spit and Doughty skated into it. Just a stupid brain fart on his part.

I know, which is why it was so bizarre to me. But I still don't buy it

Especially because it was Doughty, who's a huge wiener that I'm sure a lot of people would want to spit on

When they were doing the review I was getting so annoyed. Then they showed the spit and I lost my mind.

Really? On Miller? I wouldn't want to take that chance. Seems the Canes are a pretty tight knit group.
- mdw7413

I mean they managed to make Tony shut the hell up for a year

Though they surrounded him with other like-minded individuals so there's that.

They had their own little MAGA club in there. Tony, Trocheck, Ian Cole, Nedeljkovic... all gone now.

Idk if it's automatic 3 games. I just meant if he only gets one, he and the team is super lucky.

I thought he poked him in the eye the way Doughty reacted. Cause Miller had his glove off. I was the same when I saw the replay. Was like, eeww, wtf?!

I really didnt know what was going on, it was so loud that when they announced the penalty in the arena I assumed they said spearing, it wasnt til a bit after until I realized he was gone for spitting

and I didn't know until well into 1st period that Schneider wasnt gonna see the ice, felt like twilight zone

Yeah. When do you think we will find out?

TV didn’t know either until well after they came back from commercial

I thought they said spearing too. I was yelling at the tv "where was the (frank)ing spear?" Then I was like "oh, spitting. what the actual (frank)?"

Yeah. When do you think we will find out?
- JRR1285

Gotta be today. Every match penalty is automatically reviewed and I'm pretty is automatic 1 game suspension.
