If we get that Rynnas kid in goal. Wow. Not sure if anyone else watched Philly light him up last night but it could and should get ugly quick if he starts against us - The_Inkwell
I saw that. In his defense, the Leafs TOTALLY hung him out to dry. They seem like they've totally checked out on this season. Their one goal was a breakaway, and they only got 17 shots on net. I think it's safe to say we'll get a similar game out of them. I don't think Rynnas will be THAT bad, but I don't expect the Leafs to give him much help.

I can see this happening... But who knows, boston played like a joke last night and the rest can be hit or miss.
I'd rather the Sabres win out and TAKE the 7th spot away! - Chipd
It was nice seeing Lucic take a beating in that game too. Ran square into the net early, got blasted by a Chara shot, and took an awkward tumble into the boards. Rough night all around for him, and well deserved.
Clean hit.
He turned while trying to maintain control of the puck.
McQuaid gambled...and lost. - Purple Eagle
It has nothing to do with turning. The guy skated full stride from his bench until the goal line and hit McQuaid. It wasnt a boarding. It wasnt a hit from behind. It was a charging. Its a respect thing as a player.

Agreed. It's different than most of the other suspended plays we've seen this year, but I'll bet he takes a few games for it. I don't think it was totally dirty, but he took 15+ strides and is one of the fastest guys in the league. McQuaid's fault that it turned into an injury, but still a blatant penalty, and it could be suspendable.
