@Ottos_BMW
Embarrassing to be promoting that. Setting aside Reily’s reaction, every kid since u12 knows that was totally unsportsmanlike by Greig
@JoriEpstein
No one thought it was selfishness, what we all thought was it looked like a grown man losing total control over his emotions/impulses & shoving/grabbing an unaware 65yr old man. There’s playing the game & being emotional invested & then there’s that. Kelsey has gotten a big head

@Andrew00197347
All the qualifications of past presidents of Harvard when they were hired is public. She was vastly, vastly under qualified in both academic work & administration experience. What’s sad is there’re plenty of far more correctly qualified African Americans who Havard couldve picked

@Real_RobRossi
I think “saved” is the wrong word, the league would have existed. I’d argue “elevated” is the better word. They elevated & expanded the league in a way that absolutely wouldn’t have occurred otherwise as well he league is larger, more successful & influential because of them
@SportsiCohn
The fact is NHLers could be laying hits just like that most games yet they lazily decide not to. Needs to be more hitting like that, very good on him
@BR_OpenIce
Yeah Gretzky knows. Listen to him say “so called accident”. There wasn’t intent to kill, but every hockey player knows dirty intent was there
@jtribs14
Why are you against joining a female league? Not condoning the team, just seems like the strength differences would be a factor (ie perhaps having to play one player more carefully than all the others).
@spittinchiclets
Loophole of NCAA players being able to dictate to NHL franchises needs to be closed.
Side note, Cutter has a huge ego & pulled a pretty childish, loser move
@MarkLazerus
That is a very unserious take Mark, good grief. It’s certainly not ‘open season’. And BTW that’s an edited clip, he was punching the bench after hitting the crossbar on a shot.
You need to reign it in a bit
@JDylanBurke
In fairness dude has just lost gold in front off a crowd of home fans. Probably not think much about the future. Still a bit rude but understandable
Listen I’m as against the destruction of the climate as the next person, but all protesting at something like this does is hurt support not increase it.

@HonPhilipEDavis
Very classy statement, and it’s wonderful to see nations like the Bahamas continue to share equally the British monarch as head of state
@frank_seravalli
What Michael needs to do is sue the league, as he seems to have a pretty good case for the decision to not disclose the investigations during purchase negotiations to prevent an impact on selling price.
@spittinchiclets
Wow Bedard is soft. Smith could’ve absolutely destroyed him but instead just got in his way.
How many much bigger hits did guys like Crosby take but not shatter like glass?
If that’s what hurts him he won’t have a long career. Fantilli got hit wayyy harder by Oshie
@spittinchiclets
@NHL_On_TNT
Not a Philly fan but the way Cutter went about this betrays even the most basic tenets of professionalism & respect (in any career, but especially sports).
I think what’s effectively an NCAA loophole needs to be closed.
(Also, Lindros was different, he made it clear pre-draft)
@thelastlongbow
@GinoHard_
Per Dave Jackson “you're allowed to catch the puck in air and drop it at your feet as long as you don't deke someone out in the process. If puck had been below crossbar however, it would have been a penalty shot for closing hand on puck in the crease.”
@spittinchiclets
So cringe. All star draft should’ve been:
Pre-recorded in a smaller studio setting where players would be more likely to show personality, hosted by guys they’re comfortable with like Subban or Biz, utilized editing for general flow, prevent guys from just picking teammates
@carly9728
@jtribs14
Wasn’t overlooking anything, simply asking a question. I have no idea what leagues are available where she plays & that’s why I asked
@spittinchiclets
There should be way more hits like this every game. Plenty of chances with how forwards skate around clueless these days. Wonderful when guys actually step up
@Sportsnet
That hit on Bedard is exactly what more players need to be doing to take away his time & space.
He always just glides into the zone expecting all the time in the world (& usually it’s given to him). Finish the check.
@usahockey
Classic corrupt USA Hockey snubbing major-junior players because god forbid players decide against the NCAA route.
Nonsense & a shame as even high skill CHL guys usually play a more physical, gritty style which USA teams are always lacking in. At least we’re in the easy draw
@ssandiegooo
@ayodey4u_
@DailyLoud
Wasn’t intentional to kill Adam, it was absolutely intentional to make a dirty play. No skater falls like that. Period.
@_phil_thompson
I just lose all respect for Boris. If he, as a hockey player in the NHL, thinks that was a dirty hit then I don’t want guys like him in the NHL
@NHL
@Energizer
That was an horrifically officiated game.
In the span of 3 days I have seen 10+ hits along the boards, all with similarities & yet had different outcomes.
Today alone similar hits in the Wild/Can, VGK/TB, & Flyers/Preds were called differently
Calls being made that shouldn’t be
@ChadLeistikow
He needs to not listen to the haters. The vast, vast majority of Iowa fans support him as coach and recognize how could he is at it. The issue was his one blind spot in his son
@montagnearde
@spittinchiclets
Really? Every clip of him so far has garnered millions of views within hours of posting (find me a Bedard clip that’s done the same), he has 10 of thousands of fans cheering his name & even opposing fans interested. He’s certainly not hurting the game at all
@DavidEickholt
This is why I hate when people want him gone. The man had a weak spot that was his son (what parent doesn’t) but outside that he’s an extraordinary coach
@spittinchiclets
Canada’s fine. Have won 3 of the last 5, dominated most of last year & probably would’ve won this year if they got their top players from the NHL. Coaching this year was awful, & yes one issue was a failure to physically overwhelm opponents & to make more room for high skill.
@spittinchiclets
Again a total outrageous call that just shouldn’t be a major. It’s just crazy what this league has become. There was clearly no intent, it wasn’t in the numbers, & the defender clearly lost his footing right before contact.
@spittinchiclets
What a joke, players are just going to hit even less than the very little they already do if incidental, non-malicious/violent 2nd hand head contact can get you suspended.
Terrible for hockey & the League
@UMassHockey
@CoachCarvelUM
Should’ve been harsher on the officials, this was a huge game that should’ve been decided by the players.
The yearly very low standard of
@hockey_east
officiating compared to the NCHC & B1G is outrageous. Brian Murphy should be fired
@NHL_On_TNT
This is 2024 how is it possible that no remote form of play-by-play can be done. Can’t the guys in Buffalo just watch the stream and call the game?
@TheRantEli
@SportsnetSpec
I’ll correct that for you: “this is like a drunk driver blaming the pedestrian he ran over for walking down the middle of highway at night wearing all black”. That would be the proper analogy
@spittinchiclets
I mean that wasn’t just on him, defense was beyond awful. But no one had the balls to call out a guy like Makar for not defending. 2 assists & still a -3 & 0 hits in 23+min. Pretty insane
@officialEIHL
The EIHL must explain to the US hockey community how one of our players ended up playing against someone capable of making a dirty play like flying karate kicking someone with his skates. The result I’m sure was not intended but the initial action clearly was. Answers are needed
@Kazuma22
@spittinchiclets
L take dude. An 18 year old kid who’s never set foot in even a preseason game ot training camp can’t even be bothered to not only pick up the phone but in fact totally brush off legends of the sport who fly all the way to Sweden to meet face to face. Cutter gets zero sympathy
@ArizonaCoyotes
Think Cooley had one of his best games.
Yeah didn’t score, but was heavily involved all over the ice, drew 2 penalties, 50% on faceoffs, & was unafraid to throw his weight around which is good to see & hopefully stays.
@TSN_Sports
Wish one member of the hockey media would say what happened, as would occur in any other sports media. Hockey is still such a Bro Code club
@NFL_DovKleiman
@NBAonTNT
One of the grossest things I’ve watched in a while.
Snell has made $52+million in his career. Not only should he be able to afford care for his kids, he should be donating to autism charities for family’s that don’t have 52mil. If he needs help then he’s been a bad father
@UW_Football
Really happy we won, but I hate that roughing the passer call because if it was the other way I’d be furious.
Why refs need to insert themselves is just crazy. We’ll never hear the end of it.
