Are we not going to talk about Hill throwing 2 punches with his blocker, and it was no big deal?

If the refs don't protect the goalie, I'm okay with the goalie protecting themselves
39
Yeah, that's not the point. I agree with you, but it was a pretty big deal when Binny did it, and he got a game misconduct and a suspension.
37
Binnington has a history of hot temper and instigation. Just like Marchand, Kadri, etc. having a history of issues and causing mischief is going to be scrutinized more.
Hill has no history.
Binnington racked up numerous issues this season alone. Not to mention going back 3 seasons now. Of course he’s going to be penalized more often and it be discussed bc of the history.
Also, unfortunately the playoff reffing let’s lots of things go.
11
It's literally Rule 51. Doesn't matter history, at the minimum it is a 2 minute minor and up to a Match Penalty if the ref deemed he was attempting to injurer
5
And it’s the play offs. They let Gudas get away with interference since the first round.
Ullmark got penalized in the regular season for it. Playoffs are different in an unfortunate way.
Edit: typo

You're not wrong, but you know as well as anyone that the refs get even worse in the playoffs. They're just not gonna call that penalty at that point in the game. They're just not.
3
Book rules and how things really are do not match up, and I doubt they ever will.
Everything he said was right.
Personally I would be shocked if he got a call there in that situation. It's the Stanley Cup finals. The reffing will never look like it would mid-season.
2
Why because he's the Vegas goalie?
-1
It's a sc final. Whatever justice you want isn't happening here. The rulebook was thrown out the day regular season ended.
Also DOPS works largely off of reputation.
10
Rulebook was thrown out at the start of the regular season.
1
Nope refs have been shit all playoffs forcing players to take measures into their own hands (fists).
1
Bitchington has a history of being a pussy. Hill does not
1
marchand punched daniel sedin's head like a speedbag in 2011 and only sedin got a penalty. it's calvinball in the finals.
1
Not even close to the same thing.
-1†
No it is exactly the point, should have been multiple penalties for what they did to Hill
-1
It's because adin hill is a good goaltender, and Jordan binnington is a whiny idiot who lets beach balls in.
-2
But they did protect the goalie… Florida came out of this short handed???
2
Yes. How many crosschecks did Bennett give to Hill's back after the play was over?
1
This 💯
-1
Vegas is Gary’s baby. The officiating was atrocious. So Florida gets the only penalty on several scrums. Panthers will be much better on Monday night. I’ve never seen a shorter review on the HIGH STICK goal.
17
I want the panthers to win. Seeing the STL boy lift the cup would be a win for me.
9
Yep. Barbs and Alex already have their rings.
5
But what about second rings?
1
I'm from St Louis myself and I wanted a finals in 2019 game 4 and I got there early and I was watching the Boston broadcasters listening what they had to say and Keith could chuck walked off from behind the curtain and he patted me on the back and it's the only home game we won I paid $89 for the ticket but I would do it again in a lifetime cuz I never thought I would see you St Louis Blues win a cup
3
Yeah this series is going to be Bettmans baby
3
Bettman wants Vegas to win to prove large markets work regardless of an established Hockey community.
1
That’s already been proven.
1
Seriously. I'm not one to blame the refs, but holy shit that was bad.
2
You think the high stick was bad?? How?? He was leaning over and STILL hit the puck at shoulder height so obviously if he was standing straight his shoulders are above the puck
1
I meant in general, not specifically that play.
1
The high stick goal didn’t need a review. It wasn’t even with him bent over. If you think it was you’re wearing homer glasses.
1
“Short review” because it was obviously a good goal. Tcachuk deserved the penalty. Punk ass.
1
You mean Florida lucked out by not getting more penalties called against them for instigating and starting fights? Cry more lies
1
To be fair, the guy was 5’11”.
1
Grow up, bitch.
-17
I loved seeing that. Nothing wrong with an unhinged goalie every once in a while.
11
Agreed. The point is, why was it a big deal when Binny did it?
9
Because he does it a dozen times a season
7
Once in a while isn’t twice a month.

I mean lets be honest, if any other goalie did those antics nobody would care. Peoples dislike for Binnington is 90% to do with his old tweets
1†
I didn’t even know there were old tweets, so I’m gonna give some pushback on that one.
1
Lmao. I’ve never seen his tweets.
His on ice buffoonery and hiding behind a ref while he “tries to fight” are enough of a dislike. Also talking smack after getting pulled.
Just break a stick in the hallway to the locker room and then go cool off. The fake bravado when he clearly let in 5 goals is just embarrassing.
-2
Because he does it all the time with no provocation. This was after 2 guys were digging at him hard with the puck covered
1
Nah, only when Binny. Satan incarnate. All that is wrong with the world today.
8
Could care less about either team but that PP was a joke.
8
Could care less
So you at least care a little?
6
Ahahahh
1
Sure a little there are a few players I like.
1
The Panther player was pushed into Hill’s crease by a Knights player. After, Hill, outside of his crease, threw 2 penalty worthy hits and a cross check. Darn right the officiating was slanted in favour of Vegas. Bettman must be proud. (Hope he now has time to concentrate on helping the Coyotes get a new arena)!
4
It’s the Stanley Cup finals…
4
Exactly. Let them play or call shit both ways. That did not happen.
1
I think this post was more referring to the public outrage that happens any time Binnington does anything. I’m saying there’s a big difference between Binnington pulling shit in a meaningless game in the regular season that the Blues have basically already lost vs. the literal most aggressive and competitive series of the season. Nobody cares about a few jabs in one of the billion scrums in the SCF.
1
God damn San Jose fans are so soft, to be whining about this shit.
Wait, this is the Blues sub. Are we really doing this here?
4
He got crosschecked in the back by Bennet prior to that.
You don't do that to goalies lmao
3
It's the knights, they have different rules than the restnof the league.
The two handed over head slash to the wrist of the playoffs leading scorer? 1 game suspension
3
Are we just gonna ignore Bennett trying to punch hill? Florida started it. Big difference
2†
They definitely made a statement about not just passively taking Bennett's abuse.
2
He doesn't wear #50, so it's okay I guess.
2
i mean if FLA gets to sit on, chokeslam and concuss other players with no consequence, they should be ok to take a blocker to the chops.
2
Hill ought to be suspended, 2-3 games. Zero tolerance for blocker punches
2
First off I agree if it ain't number 50 then it's okay secondly Vegas is going to win this series because that's what Gary bettman wants
2

1
They’re going to win because they’re better.
1
That exchange deserved some penalties, no doubt.
2
Hey, at least Hill knows how to throw a punch with his blocker! Maybe he should teach Binny a thing or two.
2
Vegas has unlocked the no penalty cheap code in this playoffs and it should be obvious by now.
2
My only problem with it is only calling a penalty on one team,if it's roughing for one player it's roughing for everyone or no one
2
Exactly. Binny is the only goalie that gets any crap for getting into a scrap. Ugghh.
Binnington went after Hartman away from the crease. Plus just like Marchand, Kadri etc, having a history of issues leads to more scrutiny for review for Bins.
Also, it’s the playoffs. They’ve been letting Gudas get away with interference plays since the first round. And with how Paros has randomly dealt with big issues this post season, doubt anything will happen regardless.
Hello! Please do not use fatphobic phrases or words such as big. Hurtful language about body image can have significant negative impacts on an individual's mental health and self-esteem. It may also be triggering. When someone is subjected to derogatory comments about their appearance, they may begin to feel ashamed or embarrassed about their body, leading to feelings of low self-worth and poor body image. This can result in harmful behaviors such as disordered eating or excessive exercising to change their body in an attempt to conform to societal beauty standards. Moreover, hurtful language about body image can also contribute to the development of anxiety and depression, leading to long-term consequences on an individual's mental health. Therefore, it is crucial to promote body positivity and refrain from making negative comments about someone's appearance.

Eat shit.
Who the fuck makes a bot for this. Wow somebody must be stupidly bored.
Lmao. If I was being an asshole and rude, I’d understand.
But I’m scratching my head as to what phrase in my comment alerted the bot.
I didn’t even say Gudas was a “fat POS” or anything.
Edit: I think it was “Paros has dealt with -Big Issues-“
"reddit app" from what I hear lol.... man fuck reddit ☹️
That was a very fucking big, and I mean fucking, big wall off text. I mean if your momma was that big she would go beep beep beep whenever she backed up.
You have the perfect username to be responding to a bot like that.
Bad bot
This bot sucks big time
This bot has BIG issues with reading comprehension.
You’re so fat you have mass regardless of the existence of the Higgs-Boson particle.
Eh. Does Hill have temper tantrums multiple times a season.
I love Binner because he’s out psycho, but I guarantee you we would all be talking shit about him if played for any other team. And we would make hating him an unhealthy part of our lives if he was in Chicago.
He really is like the modern day Ed Belfour.
I think he gets crap for not actually throwing punches and just pretending to.
Lol Binnington does it once a week. And is the biggest fake tough guy in the league.
