Maxim Lapierre is a Fraud



This is the kind of shenanigans that disgusts me. It should disgust other NHL hockey fans as well.

There's no way around it, Maxim Lapierre of the Pittsburgh Penguins is a fraud and a disgrace to the game of hockey. Lapierre should be ashamed of himself after this lackluster acting job that drew a power play. If I was a GM in the NHL I wouldn't employ a player like this.

If you watch the video you will see that  Dominic Moore of the NY Rangers barely touches Lapierre. These are the kind bush-league moves that should warrant a suspension from the NHL.

The Rangers forward Moore was incorrectly given a two-minute minor for roughing. I hope the Rangers sent a tape to the NHL, for further review. The on-ice officials in this game should also be upset because Lapierre made an ass out of them. I also think that the Penguins head coach should be given a fine for this bravo sierra.

(Video) Sidney Crosby cup checks Dominic Moore after being mugged by him



First, I am not a fan of the Pittsburgh Penguins by any stretch of the imagination, but in this case I don't blame Sidney Crosby for being upset. Shouldn’t the ref call the penalties as they present themselves? The blatant holding the stick, is a penalty in high school, college and in the NHL.

The treatment that Crosby has been given during the playoffs, that has gone uncalled is ridiculous. Does the NHL want their star players out with injuries or concussions?

Also, what is Crosby supposed to do? Dominic Moore has Sid’s stick and won’t let go, that’s should be a penalty, so Crosby stuck him. While we don't want to see players spearing their opponents, sometimes the opponents should expect "something" in return, especially when they do stuff like this.

You have to give kudos to Chris Kunitz for sticking up for his fellow teammate as well. Can you imagine what former Oilers tough guy Dave Semenko would have done, if someone had done this to Wayne Gretzky? There would have been blood on the ice.

NHL has turtled in fight against head shots?

Check out this post, the author has a point. I am sure that we will see this subject discussed a lot in the next few weeks and probably into the summer.
ED WILLES, POSTMEDIA NEWS --- That's bad enough. But it seems there's been at least one vicious head shot in every frickin' game since the Weber incident: the Rangers' Carl Hagelin's hit on Daniel Alfredsson, Chris Phillips' hit on Ryan Callahan, the Sharks' T.J. Galiardi's hit on the Blues' Andy McDonald, the Blues' Vladimir Sobotka's sucker punch on the Sharks' Dominic Moore. And that's just for starters.
The resulting spit storm has been a nightmare for the NHL. This is the one time of the year when the focus of the North American sports media is on hockey but the focus isn't on the game. Instead, the spotlight is on a sport that appears to be almost criminally violent.

The league actually allowed itself to believe it was getting in front of the head-shot issue, but when given the chance to demonstrate just how seriously they're taking it, they turtled.

Dominic Moore's shootout goal... You make the call...


This the shootout goal that everyone is talking about today. It appears from watching video that the former Harvard Crimson and current Lightning forward Dominic Moore's shootout goal shouldn't have counted because it was scored on a rebound, this is against the NHL rules. It's incidents like this that make people cool to the shootout.
