Excellent write up, nice work.

Go Avs.

LOL I love you trotted through the Ryan Reaves incident.

I bet if the refs called dumb stuff like the way they did last night, there'd be a lot less of it. Reaves' teammates would not put up with too many 9 minute PPs.

Reaves suspended 2 games. I’m sorry to be that guy, but how was what he did worse then what Wilson did?

It just means that Wilson's punishment wasn't severe enough.

ryan reaves was, is, and always be a complete asshat thug..he merited at least kadri level of 8 games...hell knights won't miss him...

bloggers like the nhl coaches and players are one-eyed jacks when it comes felonies on ice...graves hit on janmark was strong hit to the chest...finish check kinda play..nothing wrong with that hit. And it was not interference...the puck had just been played by janmark. If thats int then it should be called 20x a game.

This tune would be so different if Graves put a "strong hit to the chest" to Kane or Toews in the exact situation the concussion would've ended Toews' career. It was late. Reaves should've gone after Makar instead of Graves.

Perhaps Peter DeBoer would like to have some of his hair pulled out by a talentless thug, Oops! He doesn't have any.

perhaps Gravy needs stronger plugs like the bread man?
