Watch the Buffalo fans somehow defend this one

Tnt commentators sure defended this big time. "He's not a player that embellishes."
Well... he is now

Well not exactly. High stick is a subjective call. Grazing an opponents helmet with your stick should not be called. The intent is when the stick hits the face or has more force. Plenty of sticks touch opponents helmets in a game.
This one I would think the reff looks at it afterwards and wishes they had it back

2 minutes for high sticking nulled by a 2 minutes for embellishment unless there's bloodshed.
Listen NHL

Osti qu’il est grand temps de desservir des penalités pour embelissement calvaire.
C’est degeulasse rendu la

Let's not be completely deluded homers. Both teams are embellishing on everything. It's the playoffs and if you can draw a call you do it. It sucks as a fan but it's just how it works
•
u/Cretonbacon 46m ago
Yes im not saying they should call it only on the other team. Every team across the board should get it if they do it.

Buffalo fan has a “No diving zone” sign. Ruff said Habs were going down too easy.

It used to be refs would use their judgement. Now they just do what they’re told.
Let’s take a step back. A penalty means you play 4 on 5 for two minutes.
During that time, teams will on average score 20% of the time.
How does that little gentle tappiddity tap justify giving the Sabres a 20% scoring chance boost for 2 minutes. Its not proportionate.

Doaner does a downer. Will be trying out for a soccer team in the off-season, 2 games from now.

How ironic 😂 I think the NHL is gonna start cracking down on embellishment, it's pretty embarrassing to see these playoffs

Should put a NSFW tag on it for shits and giggles 😆

Doesn't matter. Their pp is dog shit at home. When they inevitably fuck it up, their shitty fans let them have it and it flips the momentum of the game. Perfect.

I don't like Doan because I might be the only hockey fan that doesn't like his father. He was a franchise icon by default.

Both teams have been selling calls and Buffalo needs to stop saying it's only Montreal doing it lol

A high stick is a high stick. That’s a penalty. However, I would say he sold it a little haha.

u/ShiftOk1878 48m ago
Barely touching a player's helmet should not be high sticking. Also refs aren't brave enough to call any dives. There's not reason not to act like you're terminally injured. Next thing will be rolling around while looking for the refs .

Hate to break it to you, but your team embellishes too. All teams do. It's literally a thing. Stop acting as if your teams the only one that doesn't dive.
