Might get one game at the most. I personally don't think he'll get anything.
Bitz however, will probably get 3-5 games, if not more.
Babcock might get fined as well
Although he's absolutely right.
Reffing has been back to its absolute ridiculous mode.
They let everything go in the Pittsburgh-Philly game. They even let icing and offside go. Icing on the Dupuis goal that wasn't called, that resulted in the goal, and no offside goal on the Briere goal, resulting in a goal.
In Nashville, they called everything, it seemed like it was the first game of the season.
Getting more of a balanced refereed game in Vancouver, the calls they made were all no brainers.
L.A. basically spent the whole game on PP.. Still, Im really not impressed with the level of this serie so far, I wouldnt bet on either of these teams to win the West.. Tambellini took a very risky decision at the deadline trading Cody Hodgson for Zack Kassian, I understand that he wanted to add size to his line-up but he quite changed the settings of his third line replacing Hodgson by Palhson.. We will see how it will work but as I said I wouldnt bet 1 penny on this team to win the West this year..
Can't help but think if the boards would have exploded here if we were playing the Flyers and blew a 3-0 lead, including a 3-1 going into the 3rd. I can only imagine the non-stop ''sitting on the lead'' remarks.
Pittsburgh really blew that one up.

Tambellini is not vancouvers GM...
Getting Kassian and Pahlson were smart moves.
Most of their forward group is defensively sound but they play a system where they can all contribute offensively.
I really want vancouver to lose though cause i want AV
I definitely think Bitz is getting a suspension. A nasty hit from behind. I'm not sure about Weber. I think maybe it looked worse than it was. We'll see, I guess.
Why is everyone complaining about Kesler on twitter? What'd he do?
He got his stick between the legs of one of the Kings D - can't remember who now - and then stuck him you know where. He's also been diving again, and generally doing the Kesler schtick.
Canucks lose 4-2, and it was deserved. Kings played much better than Canucks. They worked hard all game. Canucks took dumb penalties too, while the Kings were disciplined. Score would have been a lot worse without Luongo.
Mike Richards played like Mike Richards in this game too.
I figured Canucks would win in 7, but Kings could win this especially if Richards can keep tonight's play up. I'm picking the Kings in 6.

Gillis my bad..
With Hodgson, they had more offensive punch and a third line that could contribute more offensively, it was a risky bet to me.
Only 1 of the 3 teams I wanted to win today won. At this rate I'm expecting the Bruins to wipe the floor with everyone.
I'm 2 in 2 Don't care about Pittsburgh-Philly really, hate both those teams.
Nashville I've been a fan of for quite some time. How they've been able to make the POs all those years despite having very limited talent over the years has earned my respect. I know we have their 2nd, but I still want them to beat Detroit.
LA is a team I expected to actually do really well this year. I don't think their 8th spot is really representative of their potential.
