All bias aside you really think this Cooke hit and the Steckel hit are comparable? I don't but I digress.
Here's what I don't get: Avery gets 6 games for calling someone's GF "sloppy seconds, Wisniewski gets 2 for making a BJ gesture...Cooke's suspension is in between those two?
DUDE, how did I know that was going to be your response? Come on, the problem isn't "wrong place, wrong time". Fuck, Tyutin got right back up.
The problem is that Cooke could have avoided that particular hit. He had a good 5 or 6 feet to slow down or do something else. Thought never crossed...
You just said if it improves and its something you need, which is exactly why the Islanders did it. Yeah, they're out of the playoffs and I'd be pissed if it was the Bruins trying to sign Nabakov. But, they had a use for him and had every right to claim him. Just like you guys would have had...
But, at least imo, Komisarek does NOT do that. He's not going to keep them afloat in the playoff race and then his albatross contract is going to hamper them.
Maybe its fueled by my extreme dislike for him (and that's putting it likely) but it makes zero sense to me.
I will only allow this if it's for Yandle lol
Seriously, as long as it isn't in a stupid deal, I don't really care. Though I'd love to see Landeskog play on the Bruins.
I was thinking of something before...say you're Edmonton and finish last again; guaranteed top 3 pick. Do you hold on to it, in what is considered by some a weak draft, or do you trade it?
It sounds crazy (and maybe it's because I'm not a fan) for a team rebuilding but the draft is weak. Why...
Nope, not on the Pens. Cooke, maybe. But, to my knowledge, I've NEVER said that Malkin or Crosby need to suffer for his stupid actions. If I did, I was mistaken then and don't feel the same now.
