You're right the 15mph backhand right at chest level was far more difficult for the point mN to handle than a 80 mph slap shot rattling off the boards . Wtf was I thinking ? And just like that he takes a dumb penalty .RoyalDude wrote:So if he rings it around there is no chance the point man intercepts it? Like that never happens. Either way it was 5 on 3 against Malkin/Crosby and company, those two have made fools out of a lot of people especially 5 on 3 but hey Sbisa deserves the ribbing, he's the only D man that has failed a clearing killing a 5 on 3Hockey Widow wrote:Blob Mckenzie wrote:Sooooooo .....

Ya when you watch the replay you see he had it on the forehand with time to ring it opposite way around the boards but for some reason put it on his back hand and.....well Malkin scores.

Man Biega was taken down on a play the Canucks would have been penalized on if it was the other way around. Crazy.
The only HW the Canucks need
Re: GDT: 23/01/16 Canucks@ Pens 9:30 AM SN
Its too bad Sbisa didnt get a breakaway out of the penalty box, I'm sure with more time he'd make a great play.

Woooohhhhh there Benjo . You are talking to Eeyore Sbisa here . He's a relative of Luca and Luca doesn't make mistakes . He's worth every dollar they pay him .Benjo wrote:Great point, it was a great play and I'm just betting coaches around the league hope their D start lobbing waffles up the middle of the ice.RoyalDude wrote:And Sbisa is the only D man in the NHL on a 5-3 PK with pressure on him to fail at clearing a puck out? Let's do the math, there are two less players on the ice to help support Sbisa, lessening his options by 40% which may explain the open ice for the Pittsburgh players 5 man unit to get one of their extra two players on top of Sbisa as he attempts to clear puck, but hey carry on with your great analysis of the playBenjo wrote:Weird I thought most NHL players could shovel a puck out.RoyalDude wrote:Yeah it's not like he had nothing but room to get rid of it.

I was merely pointing out that Topper has called out Sbisa's abilities with the puck on his backhand a few times now. He would have had better luck hammering it up the glass the other way. At least the PK could have set up even ic their d blocked it.

Horvat and Hansen could both have hat tricks this game.
