Kings vs. Maple Leafs - Jan. 2nd, 10:30pm - SN, TSN 1050

[ZBBM]

All right!  I've got Joe & Jim on the radio ? just like old times.

Sounds like I've missed a good game so far.

 

[Joe S.]

Can someone explain to me why linesman are such dicks with faceoffs?

 

[ZBBM]

Oooh Jim just said Ilya would have let in a least a couple so far.  Brutal, but honest.

 

[herman]

Dubois falling down when someone taps his stick?

 

[Bender]

Sammy wouldn't save most of those. Hope Jones keeps it going.

 

[azzurri63]

Wow tap the guys stick and it's tripping. Bulls**t.

They should replace Craig Simpson with Jim Ralph.  He just gave a nice explanation of why the Leafs are doing a good job of standing up at the blue line.

 

[Peter D.]

Dubois falling down when someone taps his stick?

I understand what the league is trying to accomplish with these types of calls.  But the number of these "cheapy" calls are really ticky-tack.  There should be more leeway on little love taps.

Some of the calls today in the Sweden-Switzerland WJC game were perfect examples of how lame they can be.  Especially at critical points in the game too.  I don't mind the whistles being put away the tighter or more important the game gets, save for egregious no doubters.

I sure hope Pierre Luc Dubois doesn't have a terrible career ending accident.

I sure hope Pierre Luc Dubois doesn't have a terrible career ending accident.

He?s sporting some career ending stats so far

 

[herman]

You can?t shove a goalie?s pad into the net to get the puck across the line

Easy call. Good non challenge by L.A.

 

[L K]

Matthews should have at least three drawn penalties tonight.  LA getting away with murder against him

 

[louisstamos]

I love Benoit's gumption, but he's not a very good fighter.

 

[Guilt Trip]

Doesn't matter. Standing up for yourself and others does.

Hope he?s okay to play against his former team tomorrow

 

[ZBBM]

Sounds like they are playing a great lockdown 3rd.

Staying above the puck and swarming the carrier that gets through the NZ clog.

What a weak call on Tavares
