Some how Ryan McDonagh didn’t get a call for cross checking Simmonds in the head...

Haha...He tapped him with a gloved hand after being cross checked in the teeth. McDonagh flopped like he was in the Premier League. The league saw the situation for what it was.

I’m starting to wonder if you even watched the play... McDonagh cross checked Simmonds in the head 2 seconds before that... The punch to the face was warranted if you ask me... it’s not Simmond’s fault that McDonagh has a glass jaw.

Really? Watch more than the NY highlights to see the cross check to the back of the head. The punch should have been expected. Not Simmonds fault McDonagh has a glass jaw

And McDonagh didn’t get a suspension for crosschecking Simmonds in the damn neck before that punch.

Devils fan, so I hate the Flyers, but this is not even a penalty, let alone a match penalty or a suspension.

Hey Barry, did you even watch the play, you pussy. He grazed his chest. Even the devil’s announcer said it should be a minor for interference. DoPS doesn’t get involved because they don’t react like girls at a horror movie when some chump throws his hands up in the air and flops like it’s the premier league. Grow a…

He pretty clearly didn’t hit him in the head in the latest hit.

If you actually watched the play the hit is shoulder to shoulder and not shoulder to head. It was still needless but it explains why the player safety department isn’t involved.

P.S. We get it Barry, Deadspin hates Philly.

See? This is what happens when you divert money from athletics to unnecessary programs like music and art!

I love how cranky you are because you have to cover hockey for one whole night.

Seeing as how there was actually contact here, I will have to disagree that it’s the most blatant dive. You must be forgetting any dive where no one made any contact with the embellisher.

Eh, he’d still barely make the top ten for the Penguins or Canadiens.

Y’ll really don’t follow this logic? I think the bank statement makes sense, certainly among my peer group (which, as upper income educated folks, is exactly who the bank is targeting in any event). Most of us grew up in upper middle class households. When my husband and i got married in our mid-twenties (some of the…

When are they changing the name to Bank of AMerrilLynch?

Nope, I bet this prediction is spot-on. The “rule” is that you spend three months’ salary on the ring. If people still want ot follow customs, they’ll follow customs. Their reasoning is that the average salary of a ring-buyer will be higher, so they will spend for the higher-priced ring.

Apperantly, diseases like (but generally not including) Alzheimer’s can affect a person’s morality.

USMC. By logistics, I mean that if a young couple decide to get pregnant right before the female soldier leaves for a year-long combat deployment, it is unlikely that she will be able to keep that commitment.

Was there a pillow over his face? Was he inside a duffel bag? Absolutely a heart attack then.

“Capitalism is pretty stupid.” What a brilliant blanket statement that is. You must have a PhD in economics with that level of insight. That is akin to saying, “Democracy is a hapless failure”. Propose a better system. You know, better than the one that built our modern world. OH, right, you don’t have one, you’re…
