@bvelaski I love the Habs, but diving is just out of control in these playoffs. The game has lost some of what used to make it unique and hard

Even the camera guy knew it was a dive

@CrazySadAzn I'm the opposite, I despised this team early on. Didn't think they deserve what they were gifted by the league on a silver platter. Now though, I respect the ruthlessness and the zero shits they give.

what i find most interesting abt the universal hatred of vgk now is how endearing they used to be. A team made up of players left unprotected by their og org that go on to not only make the playoffs in their inaugural season but make it to the scf sounds like the plot of a movie.

@nypost Ask every leftist if they'd be down with a black trans healcare CEO being held down and raped. Remember Max Cady biting the cheek of that broad in Cape Fear? I wonder if leftists would be down with that happening to a black trans woman healthcare CEO

@GinoHard_ @FAN590 Should've been a two minute minor for interference. MAYBE the 5. It was **an otherwise clean hit** on a player who happened to not have the puck. Interference minor. The injury is irrelevant I hated Vegas for years. They've become more likeable recently imo

According to Elliotte Friedman on @FAN590, the Golden Knights were furious over the Brayden McNabb suspension, which reportedly led to last night’s post-game antics 😳

@lamiche_depain Get a life lol

we're almost through all of them #lockin

@libsoftiktok Stop being a bleeding hearted conservative. What do you expect at a roast, woman? Are you also clutching pearls over the George Floyd jokes?

Pete Davidson mocks Charlie Kirk’s assassination “He’s definitely been on camera letting a guy unload in his throat” Absolutely sick

@nhl_review In all seriousness, these digital ads are a joke. We shouldn't have to be subjected to eyesores like this during the playoffs. This is just the most glaring example, but every single game there are TONS of little distracting glitches with these stupid fucking digital boards

Alright these ads are getting out of control

@JimRichards862 I stopped reading after "Ian Kennedy" and "bottom". All makes sense

I was curious PWHL’s transgender policy and stumbled across the article by @IanKennedyCK (The Hockey News) at bottom👇🏻 since I have friends at the Montreal-Minnesota game (on now). Here is the comment I posted to Kennedy’s article. “The policies of the International Ice Hockey Federation (IIHF), Ice Hockey UK, the IOC, World Athletics, World Swimming, World Rugby, and World Boxing all protect the fairness, safety, and dignity of females (aka, women) in their own sports from trans-identified men. The PWHL should clearly follow their rational, science-based policies. Author Kennedy threatens any rational, factual responses to his article with “moderation”. That’s authoritarian. Kennedy’s bias detracts from his journalism. He seems blind to that.” :: I’ll be blunt here since he can’t censor common sense and reality. Kennedy is eager to sell out the safety and fairness of women for irrational, misogynistic ideology and virtue signaling. He is Tranadian as can be. It’s almost bizarre to see such extreme opinions in @TheHockeyNews. thehockeynews.com/shortUrl/Xt4h2…

@MikeHalford604 Remember that 20 year span where the West Final featured a team from California with only like 1 or 2 exceptions? Crazy

first time since 2019 the western conference final won't feature dallas or edmonton

@FriedgeHNIC Dislike. Let the first round come to an end. Maybe I'm in the minority, but I like a few nights with no hockey during the playoffs. Let everyone breathe after the chaos of Round 1 and get a brief change of pace

Carolina/Philadelphia begins Saturday night

@betconsensus @fairy_trut17254 @SeattleKraken He's a legendary men's professional hockey player....and look at the job he's doing

@fairy_trut17254 @SeattleKraken Martin St. Louis went from his kid's coach to the NHL

An update from #SeaKraken EVP & General Manager Jason Botterill. Read more → bit.ly/CAMPBELL0430

@TmobileChilli @ByMHarrington There's still no need for women on professional men's hockey broadcasts

@ByMHarrington Emily Kaplan huge upgrade over Leah Hextall 😂

#Sabres and #NHLBruins getting the top ESPN crew for Game 6. On the call will be Sean McDonough, Ray Ferraro and Emily Kaplan.

@mandibooktwt Be honest, do you think a gay player would be most "safe" in NHL, NBA, or NFL?

the player won’t be safe, there’s no debate about it. hockey culture & the administrations are too rooted in homophobia & other forms of bigotry. the very small percentage of fans that aren’t bigoted are not & will not be enough to make an impact for that to change.

@admbeaumont @turnabouttess So? Who gives a fuck. Their goal is to win hockey games. Not pander to queers

@turnabouttess I spoke to a source about it once and apparently no one in an NHL locker room had heard of the show even by late February.

I don’t know how many times I can stand to read this headline from non-hockey outlets. The answer remains NO until a martyr takes the leap. The comments on this alone give you that answer.

@baseballkino Very sadly, in hindsight this was no doubt due to the passing of John Garrett :( Brutal news. Guy was a legend.

Wonder what happened with the Sportsnet crew in Utah since SN is showing the ESPN feed of the Vegas/Utah game and CBC is airing alternate programming (Murdoch Mysteries/Heritage Minutes/The National)

@mikeswcoast2004 @cbctom Very very sad, but in hindsight this was no doubt due to the passing of John Garrett :( Guy was a legend

@cbctom Sportsnet carrying ESPN feed for Vegas-Utah Game 4. Game not on CBC. Could be connected to the job cuts?

@IceSinghHNIC Oh god, I just made the connection that this was why the Vegas-Utah game wasn't on CBC last night 😢 Brutal. Cheech made watching the Canucks while I lived in Vancouver a ton of fun. Legend.

Lost a gem of a human being. I was SO lucky to have gotten to know John Garrett & enjoyed working with him so much. Made me feel so comfortable. Countless laughs & stories. Truly a great friend and a beloved colleague to so many of us. Cheech, you will be missed, dearly 🙏

Not a day I wouldn’t smile just hearing the name Cheech. Until today. Heartbroken to learn of his passing. So many laughs, great memories and life lessons. John Garrett was one of a kind. We’ll all miss him.

@i_amkoryb @JoshYohe_PGH I love Bucci's passion, but he simply does not have play by play chops. Decent host, brutal play by play

@JoshYohe_PGH Only 2 people from ESPN care about hockey & that’s Bucci & Linda Cohn. Everyone else on the panels were products of NBC, where the games should have stayed. Broadcasts were far better for production value

Just looked at ESPN's site...of the first 16 headlines, including videos... * 6 NFL * 4 NBA * 4 MLB * 1 NCAA * 1 LIV golf * O NHL I bring this up because ESPN broadcasts NHL games and aired two wildly entertaining NHL playoff games last night. Amazing. But not surprising.

@NHL_AaronWard Aaron, the most important word of your post is "after"! Any elevation off the ice occurs after contact

At first, I thought this hit was OK… ya.. not so much now though. That’s a HELL of a vertical after delivering the hit which might be an issue. Again, slow motion lets us all shape the hit how we want to see it but good that Slaf seems OK.
