He's awesome baby with a Capital A. A diaper dandy.

Finished the job this time. Not too often you get to injure a star player twice within a month without any penalty.

I say throw away next game. Bring up the Hal team to do some damage. Doesn't matter if they get suspended. That's what the pens are doing lol

you just have to avoid getting two of them on one shift, they'll get ya for the 2nd one

On Twitter. Holmgren said day-to-day with a UBI. But it was pretty clear he got hit up high, and he was very woozy going back to the bench (so much so that he had trouble getting there). He sat down on the bench and was attended to immediately. Tried to return and it didn't look very good, then he was shut down for the night.

Took a very long time for the Flyers to respond to injury report request after the game, too, and that's not usually a good sign either.

At what point does this crap stop? Sure injuries are part of the game but this is ridiculous.
If it was a forearm to the head I am sure no suspension will be forthcoming.

Why do I have the sudden urge to slit my wrists

Not true. Rinaldo got called for x-checking and roughing for 2 separate incidents (as well as getting a game misconduct).

yea its definitely building up, it's just i felt like it's been building up since episode one of last year. Would like to see more of those white walker things. Saw one for five seconds last season and then nadda.

I think you can pretty much guarantee Rinaldo is going to be suspended.

Andy Reid at a buffet has more discipline.

JVR in for Rinaldo
Meszaros in for Grossmann

Oh woe is me it was retribution for grosmann he was told to do it

More goals in the first combined than hits through 8 in the Phil's game

I meant Vitale hitting Grossmann. I sit Rinaldo more because he has a target on his back and the flyers can't take a chance on him taking bad penalties. We have Briere for that.

Awesome Plind.

Has anyone actually seen the hit everyone is calling dirty? Honest question, I never even saw it.

Chris Therien said on twitter he didn't think it was dirty.

My sister has read the series so far and is annoyed at the pace at which things are resolved (almost never) and the speed at which he writes considering she thinks he looks emphysemic and is unlikely to finish the stories before he kicks it. She reads very slowly, so the fact that she's made it through them all is impressive. But she's thinking she should have read something more satisfying.

I didn't see it. I think I had already turned the game off by the time the hit occurred.

Seriously ? Did he get a concussion all by himself...typically those occur when there is contact to the head

Apparently it was in the first, surely you hadn't turned it off by then.

Depends on whose head. Flyer skulls seem to have the durability of egg shells.

Just because he was hit and suffered a concussion does not necessarily make the hit dirty.
