Well we won yesterday finally but lost Arvy in the process to a dirty play from Bortuzzo. I know fighting is dying out in the sport but that was the sort of play that he should have had to answer for and no one stepped up. That too me is a big issue with this group I think, there doesn't seem to be any tough guys on the roster we seemed to get bullied a lot.
That was dirty. Dude should have walked out with less teeth for sure.Well we won yesterday finally but lost Arvy in the process to a dirty play from Bortuzzo.

Agreed on the fighting, but how is that also not a 10-15 game suspension for Bortuzzo? A hockey stick is a weapon in the context in which he used it, and he did it not just once but twice, after he had been knocked down to the ice from the first cross check. Not to mention he's a repeat offender. Completely unnecessary and not a hockey play whatsoever; that's much worse than going in for a body check (a hockey play) and having the guy turn or duck at the last second and you end up checking him from behind or hitting the head.Well we won yesterday finally but lost Arvy in the process to a dirty play from Bortuzzo.

That’s $6 million a year sitting on the bench. His trade value keeps dropping with him sitting on the bench. The Preds will have to keep some of his salary if he gets traded.Turris not playing for a 6th straight game. At this point either #FreeTurris or trade him. He isn't benefiting the team by being on the bench.
