For me, it wasn’t the hit, it was the fact that Lindholm didn’t have his legs five minutes later.I understand your thinking and you are likely to be right because the Bruins are going to have a hard time getting through the weekend, but none the less, I still stand by the basic idea that TV sometimes is deceptive with the impact of hits. And it goes both ways. More importantly, when players get really serious concussions that don't look like major blows on tape I think it is a disservice that we all often sort of 'whatevs' those hits.
And they’re running his ass out of town because Cassidy doesn’t like him.I mean, that’s completely fucking embarrassing. Holy shit, your best and second best defensemen get fucked on at least questionable hits, and Jake DeBrusk is the one sticking his nose in there and doing something more than grabbing and face washing.
When you have a chance to say something stupid, Dave Jackson took it and ran with it.Player Safety? Seriously?
Same story every yearOh fuck off fake staratore. Yeah let’s look at a careless high stick and not all the high hits by Carolina
Exactly. The kids done nothing but play his ass off for months.And they’re running his ass out of town because Cassidy doesn’t like him.
Marchand effect. For better or worse they will never get a call while he’s hereThey are the only team penalized in scrums. Doesn’t matter if they take the first shot or are the ones retaliating. 3 times tonight scrums have ended with Hurricanes man advantages.
Yup. It's ridiculous. I thought Cassidy was good the first couple seasons and a breath of fresh air after Julien. But I was wrong.And they’re running his ass out of town because Cassidy doesn’t like him.
100%. They will never get over Marchand licking a guy at the league office.Marchand effect. For better or worse they will never get a call while he’s here
They’re gutless. Regular season game, Hall wipes out a Colorado player with a clean hit and they hunt him the rest of the game. This game is out of reach, two of your best D Men got borderline hits, one’s out for the rest of the season probably, you desperately need a spark, and they’re wasting penalties with high sticks and holds.If someone doesn't run Svechnikov, I'm going to lose a ton of respect for this team and Cassidy.
This is the kind of game that absolutely calls for a line fight.
Every hockey coach has a shelf life.Yup. It's ridiculous. I thought Cassidy was good the first couple seasons and a breath of fresh air after Julien. But I was wrong.
Didn’t they sign Foligno just for shit like this?They’re gutless. Regular season game, Hall wipes out a Colorado player with a clean hit and they hunt him the rest of the game.

Shit I was saying that 4 months ago and I got laughed out of a game thread.I would fire Cassidy and keep debrusk. His just smirk and shake his head bullshit doesn't work in this league
More importantly than that - this is now two playoff series in a row he's been outcoached and hasn't adjusted.I would fire Cassidy and keep debrusk. His just smirk and shake his head bullshit doesn't work in this league
I will admit to at times wondering what he’d get in a trade because of it. It’s just so obviously a thing unfortunately.100%. They will never get over Marchand licking a guy at the league office.
At that money, ostensibly they signed him to provide offense in the greasy areas.Didn’t they sign Foligno just for shit like this?
You can't hit someone if you can't catch them.Didn’t they sign Foligno just for shit like this?
Game 5 postgame last year was epic.Cassidy better go nuclear on these refs after the game.
Cooper's outcoached him a couple times before that. The Bruins came out strong in Game 1, then completely wilted against the Lightning twice.More importantly than that - this is now two playoff series in a row he's been outcoached and hasn't adjusted.
The Islanders pantsed him last year, and this series isn't looking so great yet, either.
Add the blues series imhoMore importantly than that - this is now two playoff series in a row he's been outcoached and hasn't adjusted.

I would just rather rebuild and go with a coach that was more of a player development guy.Cassidy is a top 10 coach. I wish he would work the officials harder but I wouldn’t fire him. The replacement is likely to be worse.
