Can we all agree Kelly Hrudeys commentary is a dang it? Basically : "The flames skated on their.....skates and shot the puck and it went in so now it is 1-0 flames" THANKS KELLY
Everyone's forgetting that the rules are different when you're on a powerplay. The only way to get a two man advantage is for really heinous infringements, like accidentally grazing someones helmet with your stick or even worse shooting the puck out of play.
Yeah, not like he talked about it being Tinordi's stick for like 2 minutes. Maybe next time continue the video for 15seconds before commenting your stupidities
I'd be interested in the view of the League on when players use their stick to flip another player's stick to him. Highlights of Crosby and Matthews have been praised by the broadcast commentators, but I don't see how that is any different than what Nurse did.
Poolsharker it’s different because of the letter of the rule, and that’s all, both should be allowed but technically nurses was against the rules so the ref didn’t use common sense and just called it
.....ghallager snapped his head back in an effort to move his head out of the way from someone brutally sending their stick towards his neck in an attempt to injure him. Any human being on earth would have that same automatic reaction to defend from being hurt. Disgusting cowardly act from chara, and im sure he gave the nhl his signed stick afterwards to bribe himself out of punishment. Repulsive.
So that stick throw wasn't even a "throw", more him sliding it down the ice. Loose definition the NHL has there. If the stick is thrown at a player or out of the rink like Stamkos in Boston years ago (I was at that game), THAT should be a penalty.
It has to do with teams trying to circumvent the rule as a way of defending, so hockey in general, not just the NHL, has a no stick throwing rule. You can legally pass the stick to another player, but it must remain in the hands of a player at all times. This is even a rule in Minor hockey.
The NHL should be embarrassed by the decision on Chara. First of all it should’ve been a 5 minute major and a game misconduct. Second, he should’ve been suspended for at least 3 games
You should make a video of almost dang it’s. things the were risky, close calls, or just bad thing that happened that they got lucky to escape I think it’d be entertaining
When it comes to the throwing of the stick penalty, I can see where having the rule be cut and dry would be beneficial. By and large, I am in favour of rules that make the officials' jobs easier, rather than harder. I know they're professionals and should be able to handle it, but if their job is to ensure the safety of players and audience members, I say it only makes sense to help them out. Besides, when has ambiguity or grey areas in the rules ever worked out? I mean, just look at goaltender interference. In the past few years, everyone from coaches, to players, analysts, fans, and probably officials themselves (from behind closed doors) are completely fed up with how dumb the rule is, and how inconsistently it is called. And let's face it, not every throw of the stick is going to be so black and white. The moment players know they can get a way with something, they will exploit it to its furthest extent and all of a sudden it becomes a judgement call by the ref. It's unnecessarily ambiguous for a rule that almost never occurs in a typical game. Leave it be, and give the refs one less thing to worry about.
So they could make the rule state that one may not throw a stick within 10 feet of an opposing player, then you can't do it even if you throw it to your teammate behind you when your team is on the offence and an opposing player skated by you on their way to defend but it would still leave Nurse in the green for what he did
@@oskforalltid Sure, but unless the NHL puts scale markers along the boards, that's still a judgement call by the refs. That change could definitely work, I just feel awkward changing a perfectly reasonable and objective rule into a perfectly reasonable, but subjective one.
I can imagine a scenario where players break their stick and then the bench is throwing sticks down the ice. I think the rule makes sense. You might say, "ok, then no throwing sticks from the bench." but there's also a grey area where players start throwing sticks to block passes or to distract opponents. and that would just be chaos. I think any rule that would allow this specific play but not allow a bunch of other crazy plays would be so complicated and hard to fairly enforce.
I love your commentary on the stick throwing. Should that have been a penalty no. It was a penalty because it is in the rules. They have to enforce it until the playoffs. The playoffs where the points dont matter and the rules are made up.
The 5000$ fine is the maximum allowable fine, NHLPA protecting the players and undermining league discipline. If Parros could make it more I’m sure he would
If someone made $20,000 a year, that would be like getting fined $1 for taking a hard object, and brutally smashing someone in the face with it. I'm pretty sure Chara learned his lesson.
I'm sure Gallagher's throat thinks that is fair. Steve's point is that the penalty and fine is not fair. It's ridiculous that he gets away with that crap.
@@daveallen9921 Oh no I agree he 100% should have been penalized. But Gallagher was also DEFINITELY selling how hard it really was. And to be fair, with how hard they've been choking lately, a little trachaeotomy might do them some good.

Although your no Caroline Szwed.
I think it was a penalty. But in my opinion, the penalty should have been illegal equipment, not just throwing the stick. We saw this happen last year, where a Vegas player dropped his stick, while simultaneously another player got his stuck in the boards. He grabbed the stick out of the boards and the refs called a penalty for it. I thought it was ridiculous at the time, but this a completely different issue, the goalie was using a skater's stick. If for example, the refs would call it for a forward using the goalie's stick, its only fair that we do the same for the other way around.
Funny thing about the Nurse penalty is that Auston Matthews got away with flipping a teammate's stick to him, which is illegal under the same rule, multiple times this season.
Darnell Nurse handing his stick to his goaltender shouldn't be a penalty. He didn't even legitimately throw it at him. He slid it to him. I mean, he's just helping his teammate out. I think it's an absolute dang it on the referees to be completely honest because that's just a blown call.
5:10 My teammate on my hockey team threw his stick at an opponent who was on a breakaway (he was behind the opponent). They had a penalty shot (went in) and won. Don't do it.
I learned this lesson in peewee hockey... I slid my stick to our goalie who was no more than 10 feet away...got a penalty for it. Argued with the referee about it, got 10 minutes extra.
Paul Byron getting suspended 3 GAMES last year for a hockey hit. The only reason why he got suspended was the Boston Bruins made such a stink about it!! A legitimate cross check to the Head and nothing!?!? Utter f**** b*******!!! If this doesn't show League (Especially when suspensions are doled out.) I don't know what does! Kotkaniemi was taken out for like eight games this year, on a text book Slew Foot, and nothing!
Wikipedia says that Players can be fined up to 50% of one day's salary, up to a maximum of $10,000.00 for their first offense, and $15,000.00 for any subsequent offenses (if fined in the last 12 months.) But yeah, 5000$ are peanuts when you make 3,75 millions $ a year. if my calculations are correct, $10000 is the maximum fine that Chara would have had if his salary's paid over a 186-day period because a half-a-day fine would exceed 10000$
Assuming someone of Zdeno Chara's age has worked every year since they were 18 years old earning the median annual US personal income of $31,099 (2016 data), they will have earned a total gross income of $746,376. An equivalent fine for that person would be $38.
I thought that the penalty for cross-checking a guy in the face was 5 games suspension. To be exact 5 playoff games, which is supposed to be equivalent to 10 regular season games. I guess the DOPS said " Well, He's really tall, so how could he NOT crosscheck guys in the face? Let's give him the benefit of the doubt and assume he didn't mean to do that." DOPS is ridiculously inconsistent. I'm not trying to imply that Chara's cosscheck was as bad as Kadri's, but Chara should have at least got a game or two for that. Seems fair.
I'm done with this show. He's an idiot. You can't throw equipment. Stick, helmet, gloves, skates, there is no portion of equipment that is throw-able. And there are no exceptions. It's not like the rule book says "you can't throw your equipment but in the following cases we'll allow it: 1- You really felt like it would help your team, 2- It would make Dangle cry 3- You're a Bruins player"
Hey Steve, just love your videos. But just one thing, you talked way too much for very small things. You talked for over 30 seconds for drinking beer through the sippy cup. Come on, seriously? Besides that, keep up the good work. :-)
No you cannot Crosscheck to the FACE. #jiri Fischer game 4@carolina 2002finals. if Charzard gave gally even 50%power of tht 125 flex lumber, hed hav 0 teeth lol but still that wasnt "exact same" at all
You compared his career earnings to someones yearly earnings. Still not a serious punishment but not accurate. If someone made 100k a year for 27 years it would be way more than $5 as their punishment. Thanks for the laugh though and next time I am in trouble with the law I will ask if the Chara punishment option is available because it is only $135 (if you make 100k a year).
Steve. A little side note. If you can say "balls", can Mike Millbury say "pussyfoot" on national TV? He did that when talking about Carlo during Montreal game on Wednesday. I laughed hysterically.
I was at that Wild/Knights game. Not only was Reaves down on the ice for a while after the nutshot, when he finally made it to the bench, he was kneeling in the doorway until they made him move so they could close it. He was then sitting on the bench for a second when play started again but then went immediately back to kneeling on the ground for a good 2 mins until he could go back to sitting.......that HAD to be painful!! But, the game started chippy.....30 seconds in, they were fighting
I'm surprised that the own goal made by the preds against the Oilers wasn't in this, afterall they were leading 3-0 and that own goal gave some energy back to the Oilers enough to come back and win the game ......... Right when the preds were about to catch back to the playoffs. That's a dangnit for them. Or the Montreal Canadians against the Coyotes when twice at the end of the game the Coyotes didn't receive a penalty for too many men on the ice which led to a play that got the Montreal Canadians a penalty ..... During wish they got scored ...... With 1 minute left to the game. Dangnit. Also Danaut got a puck to the face
Oh come on, Chara doesn't have the ability to cross check someone lower than the neck! BTW, my 15-year-old hockey player son made me watch, show is highly entertaining. Great clips and hilarious commentary! Only thing I'd suggest is that when you show a clip where there's a specific focus, either show it a second time with a closeup or somehow point out what we're looking at. In the Kapanen thrown stick clip, as an old guy, I was focused on where the puck went so it took me forever to find where the thrown stick was.
I don't think Nurse sliding(not throwing) his stick back to the goalie should have been a penalty. Like you said, if it was towards the play or interfered in some way I understand, BUT nurse was looking to chance and it was behind the play so I don't see a problem with it personally.
Gallagher was trying to get under Chara's skin all game. Typical to ignore the embellishment by Brendan there. I want to see you get in a tussle with someone 2ft shorter than you 😂. If you want to have Chara suspended, tell Gallagher to stop turning into Gumby, every time he gets hit.
Alexander Steen got his helmet knocked off by Subban during a game and Subban got a penalty, but then Steen got a penalty for continuing to play without a helmet so they went to 4 on 4. Up until this point I didn’t even know you could get a penalty for something like that. Dang it....
So what about that floater that Lindgren let in? That was a dang-it, but the bigger dang-it was NJD ended up blowing a 3 goal lead and then Ilya Kovalchuk scores the game winner in the shootout.
Must be the same Boston officials from game 1 of the third round of last years playoffs against the Canes who gave Hamilton a minor for being checked after they let a massive crosscheck go by Boston. The refs changed the whole game in a matter of 5 minutes after the Canes took the lead. The "Original six officiating" started with that game! This has been a real issue this year.
All stick throws should be penalized. If you start allowing some, you start getting into the gray area on weather it should be called or not. Much the same way with the delay of game call for shooting the puck out of play in your own zone. Just call a penalty on stick throws so it doesn't become an issue.
It shouldn't have been a penalty - see www.hockeycentral.co.uk/nhlrules/Rules-53.php First the stick was not thrown, so not even sure this applies, but that's what it was penalized under so let's investigate further. The rule specifically states that you need to throw the stick at the puck or an opponent. Further on it states, "When moving a stick that is not broken, no penalty shall be assessed as long as it does not interfere with the play..." Case closed
Darnell Nurse shouldn't have been called on that play. He did NOT throw his stick. He slid it down the ice, touching the ice the whole time. How is that throwing the stick if it isn't airborne for even a second?
There are very few people Zdeno Chara could cross-check and not hit in the face. It's not his fault he's 6" taller than pretty much everyone else in the NHL.
In regards to the fines, its in the CBA, and just one reason why the Players Union (Association) is a joke and doesn't care about all the players in the league.
The first dangit is on the Kings D. If your goalie stops the puck behind the net and there are 2 Flames there before your D, you should just stop with the hockey.
No penalty, just why the goalie needs a stick more than a player, what is Darnell Nurse going to just skate to the goalie behind the play and maybe result in a goal? I would’ve done the exact thing
Batter Up! That was great. Reeves hit wasn’t great, but it wasn’t meant to be a drive Dumba’s head into the wall from behind... His jewels did not deserve that treatment...
Chara should have got a high stick, but nope, since he's a giant and Gallagher isn't, pretty much not a high stick....just a good ol cross check to the chin of the not giant.
I like to watch hockey, however I dont know much about it. One thing that doesnt make any sense to me is that this is one of the most violent sports, players are in danger almost constantly and i think thats ridiculous that players get so harshly penalized by somethings like throwing the stick.
if nurses stick throw is a penalty then wouldnt mathews stick pass (when he used his stick to pick up and flip the stick to a teammate) also be a penalty? and i think i have seen crosby also do the same.....
Boston is a dirty team. Which is sad because they are so skilled, don't need to play dirty but they do. Chara hit the guy square in the face, then cries to the ref that the guy trough his head back, come on man.

I learned this lesson in peewee hockey... I slid my stick to our goalie who was no more than 10 feet away...got a penalty for it. Argued with the referee about it, got 10 minutes extra.
Paul Byron getting suspended 3 GAMES last year for a hockey hit. The only reason why he got suspended was the Boston Bruins made such a stink about it!!
A legitimate cross check to the Head and nothing!?!? Utter f**** b*******!!!
If this doesn't show League (Especially when suspensions are doled out.) I don't know what does!
Kotkaniemi was taken out for like eight games this year, on a text book Slew Foot, and nothing!
Wikipedia says that Players can be fined up to 50% of one day's salary, up to a maximum of $10,000.00 for their first offense, and $15,000.00 for any subsequent offenses (if fined in the last 12 months.) But yeah, 5000$ are peanuts when you make 3,75 millions $ a year. if my calculations are correct, $10000 is the maximum fine that Chara would have had if his salary's paid over a 186-day period because a half-a-day fine would exceed 10000$
Assuming someone of Zdeno Chara's age has worked every year since they were 18 years old earning the median annual US personal income of $31,099 (2016 data), they will have earned a total gross income of $746,376. An equivalent fine for that person would be $38.
I thought that the penalty for cross-checking a guy in the face was 5 games suspension. To be exact 5 playoff games, which is supposed to be equivalent to 10 regular season games. I guess the DOPS said " Well, He's really tall, so how could he NOT crosscheck guys in the face? Let's give him the benefit of the doubt and assume he didn't mean to do that." DOPS is ridiculously inconsistent. I'm not trying to imply that Chara's cosscheck was as bad as Kadri's, but Chara should have at least got a game or two for that. Seems fair.
I'm done with this show. He's an idiot. You can't throw equipment. Stick, helmet, gloves, skates, there is no portion of equipment that is throw-able. And there are no exceptions. It's not like the rule book says "you can't throw your equipment but in the following cases we'll allow it: 1- You really felt like it would help your team, 2- It would make Dangle cry 3- You're a Bruins player"
Hey Steve, just love your videos. But just one thing, you talked way too much for very small things. You talked for over 30 seconds for drinking beer through the sippy cup. Come on, seriously? Besides that, keep up the good work. :-)
No you cannot Crosscheck to the FACE.
#jiri Fischer game 4@carolina 2002finals.
if Charzard gave gally even 50%power of tht 125 flex lumber, hed hav 0 teeth lol but still that wasnt "exact same" at all
You compared his career earnings to someones yearly earnings. Still not a serious punishment but not accurate. If someone made 100k a year for 27 years it would be way more than $5 as their punishment. Thanks for the laugh though and next time I am in trouble with the law I will ask if the Chara punishment option is available because it is only $135 (if you make 100k a year).
Steve. A little side note. If you can say "balls", can Mike Millbury say "pussyfoot" on national TV? He did that when talking about Carlo during Montreal game on Wednesday. I laughed hysterically.
Chara deserves it
I was at that Wild/Knights game. Not only was Reaves down on the ice for a while after the nutshot, when he finally made it to the bench, he was kneeling in the doorway until they made him move so they could close it. He was then sitting on the bench for a second when play started again but then went immediately back to kneeling on the ground for a good 2 mins until he could go back to sitting.......that HAD to be painful!! But, the game started chippy.....30 seconds in, they were fighting
I'm surprised that the own goal made by the preds against the Oilers wasn't in this, afterall they were leading 3-0 and that own goal gave some energy back to the Oilers enough to come back and win the game ......... Right when the preds were about to catch back to the playoffs. That's a dangnit for them. Or the Montreal Canadians against the Coyotes when twice at the end of the game the Coyotes didn't receive a penalty for too many men on the ice which led to a play that got the Montreal Canadians a penalty ..... During wish they got scored ...... With 1 minute left to the game. Dangnit. Also Danaut got a puck to the face
Oh come on, Chara doesn't have the ability to cross check someone lower than the neck! BTW, my 15-year-old hockey player son made me watch, show is highly entertaining. Great clips and hilarious commentary! Only thing I'd suggest is that when you show a clip where there's a specific focus, either show it a second time with a closeup or somehow point out what we're looking at. In the Kapanen thrown stick clip, as an old guy, I was focused on where the puck went so it took me forever to find where the thrown stick was.
I don't think Nurse sliding(not throwing) his stick back to the goalie should have been a penalty. Like you said, if it was towards the play or interfered in some way I understand, BUT nurse was looking to chance and it was behind the play so I don't see a problem with it personally.
I know you were joking Steve, but I still got mildly angry when you called Sundin a Canucks legend 😡😂
Gallagher was trying to get under Chara's skin all game. Typical to ignore the embellishment by Brendan there. I want to see you get in a tussle with someone 2ft shorter than you 😂. If you want to have Chara suspended, tell Gallagher to stop turning into Gumby, every time he gets hit.
Alexander Steen got his helmet knocked off by Subban during a game and Subban got a penalty, but then Steen got a penalty for continuing to play without a helmet so they went to 4 on 4. Up until this point I didn’t even know you could get a penalty for something like that. Dang it....
So what about that floater that Lindgren let in? That was a dang-it, but the bigger dang-it was NJD ended up blowing a 3 goal lead and then Ilya Kovalchuk scores the game winner in the shootout.
Must be the same Boston officials from game 1 of the third round of last years playoffs against the Canes who gave Hamilton a minor for being checked after they let a massive crosscheck go by Boston. The refs changed the whole game in a matter of 5 minutes after the Canes took the lead. The "Original six officiating" started with that game! This has been a real issue this year.
Someone should supervise your videos. That wasn't Tinordi's stick. He dropped his and threw the Pred players...dang-it
All stick throws should be penalized. If you start allowing some, you start getting into the gray area on weather it should be called or not. Much the same way with the delay of game call for shooting the puck out of play in your own zone. Just call a penalty on stick throws so it doesn't become an issue.
Kadri got suspended because he's a multiple repeat offender. Also no injury. Debrusk had concussion effects threw all of last yrs playoff run.
It shouldn't have been a penalty - see www.hockeycentral.co.uk/nhlrules/Rules-53.php
First the stick was not thrown, so not even sure this applies, but that's what it was penalized under so let's investigate further.
The rule specifically states that you need to throw the stick at the puck or an opponent. Further on it states, "When moving a stick that is not broken, no penalty shall be assessed as long as it does not interfere with the play..."
Case closed
Darnell Nurse shouldn't have been called on that play. He did NOT throw his stick. He slid it down the ice, touching the ice the whole time. How is that throwing the stick if it isn't airborne for even a second?
There are very few people Zdeno Chara could cross-check and not hit in the face. It's not his fault he's 6" taller than pretty much everyone else in the NHL.
In regards to the fines, its in the CBA, and just one reason why the Players Union (Association) is a joke and doesn't care about all the players in the league.
The first dangit is on the Kings D. If your goalie stops the puck behind the net and there are 2 Flames there before your D, you should just stop with the hockey.
No penalty, just why the goalie needs a stick more than a player, what is Darnell Nurse going to just skate to the goalie behind the play and maybe result in a goal? I would’ve done the exact thing
The only way you can get reaves down is using a weapon, something other than your hands
Batter Up! That was great. Reeves hit wasn’t great, but it wasn’t meant to be a drive Dumba’s head into the wall from behind... His jewels did not deserve that treatment...
Chara should have got a high stick, but nope, since he's a giant and Gallagher isn't, pretty much not a high stick....just a good ol cross check to the chin of the not giant.
I like to watch hockey, however I dont know much about it. One thing that doesnt make any sense to me is that this is one of the most violent sports, players are in danger almost constantly and i think thats ridiculous that players get so harshly penalized by somethings like throwing the stick.
So what about using your stick to flip a stick back to your teammate? Where does that fall in the "Throwing a stick" situation?
Worst thing you can do as a goalie, or a defenseman, when a play is scuffed, is to try and save it.
No, get back and try to make the next play.
if nurses stick throw is a penalty then wouldnt mathews stick pass (when he used his stick to pick up and flip the stick to a teammate) also be a penalty? and i think i have seen crosby also do the same.....
Well, what if the goalie for some reason decide not to pick up the stick? Then you have a stick in front of the goal that could stop a puck/dangle.
Boston is a dirty team. Which is sad because they are so skilled, don't need to play dirty but they do. Chara hit the guy square in the face, then cries to the ref that the guy trough his head back, come on man.
Your choice of plays to show is excellent, but your video is waaayyy tooo looong. Cut your commentaries by three, please.
Is it the new bruins fan steve? And yes, it was totaly the same. So what now? You can't take a cross-check to the face?
Sarcasm
Chara cross-checked at a normal height for him. Gallagher just happens to be a foot shorter.(not saying Chara is in the right.)
