no, that's the rule, that's a penalty

Technically he deflected it, so it's not supposed to be a penalty.

Now they make a ridiculous call on Chara for delay

Isn't that the automatic rule? In your zone and shoot it out it's a penalty?

Really. To me it looked like he batted it out.

It is the rule; a horrible rule at that - especially when the puck is batted out of midair. I've seen the same thing called league-wide, so at least they are somewhat consistent with it.

Who knew January was M*A*S*H month on HB?

I don't see how its a deflection. He clearly swung at thep uck and intended to hit it up in the air

Sounds terrible, but I think it's time to do just that. We're gonna lose this one, so tell the Bruins we're not going to just roll over.. eye for an eye.. time for Harts to clean Thomas.
- Hextall271

after every play take slash at his glove and if you're on a breakaway just plow him

This is the kind of game I would have loved to see Rinaldo.

Somebody please (frank)ing run Thomas.

Who gives a (frank) about the penalty.

He batted it out of the air - so the right call was made. But the rule, in that regard, is incredulous.

Well, it was called, so I'll agree with you guys.

nothing stopping the Flyers from killing off those penalties.

no pronger. no jagr. no jvr. no briere. it would be nice to have something even close to resembling a full lineup.

Did Leon Stickle come out of retirement today?
