late and players know where the glass ends
when is the fight?
~1.5 seconds late in slow motion. Shades of Aaron Rome on Horton.
Onus of Awareness has to be on both players.
Either way, if you’re a team mate and you want to move from the periphery to a consistent spot on the roster, Carrier pigeon is on the menu. Fuck that shit, if you’re a rook it might be worth the suspension and fine. Hop the boards and pummel that fuck into the ice

Oh I definitely agree it requires a response. Just not one from the league.

Perhaps a rule change that targets boarding along the bench side of the ice?
I’m thinking Boeser would agree ?
Players absolutely must be accountable for knowing where the stanchion is and what can happen to a player when his head is driven in to it.
See this to often still. It's what happens when you virtually remove decent hip checks from the game, IMO.

Sure. But that wasn’t boarding.
Neither was Boeser’s injury. In fact Boeser was the one who initiated contact when he got hurt.
Besides there is a rule that targets boarding along the bench side of the ice. It’s called boarding.
Technicalities abound. The point is that the consequences on hitting on the bench side of the rink are higher so the penalty could be higher. Or maybe not, I dunno I think the instigator rule sucks. I could be right out to lunch

Nice to see the Flames lay a beating on the Oilers.
What a freaking wioe-out! Are you back on the bandwagon? Geezus! the oil slicks didn't even pick a fight at the end. Low emotion hockey.
No I'm resigned to the fact that the Flames are done this season. I just like to see them beat the Oilers. Just a small concillation in an otherwise miserable season.
