Since I don't see this story anywhere else

Arrest made in skate blade death of Johnson

From the video, it looks pretty intentional. JFC

Boy, I just don't know. And I really mean that -- maybe it was intentional, maybe it wasn't. I just don't know.

I also don't know what "suspicion of manslaughter" entails in England.

Graphic video.

Hi, @BYH 2: Electric Boogaloo!

When I went to college in Hartford, someone sold T-shirts with Mickey Mouse holding up a middle finger saying "Hey Hartford!"

The Hurricanes might as well be wearing sweaters with that logo.

That's ridiculous. Bunch of racists who never played the game started squawking and he's arrested just to appease them.

There are plenty of racists taking this opportunity to shirt all over the black player. There also plenty of people who have played the game who think there was some intent there. Not to cut his throat, obviously but to hurt him. I lean to a really bad accident.

I have to agree with you. It is certainly possible that it was intentional. I don't know why his leg would come up like that if not to try to hurt him. Maybe it was just a horrible accident, but I can certainly see why people would argue otherwise.

JFC.
Just got home from the game. Looking for an explanation.



Disputed goal at 9:20

 

[Spartan Squad]

Refs ruled it didn't fully cross the line and there wasn't enough to change it? That video it is hard to see if the puck fully crossed. It probably did, but you need more than probably to call it a goal.

One of the stop-action replays showed the puck so far over the goal line, the video crew drew in a red line between the puck and the goal line. Goalie Stolarz missed jamming his skate into the post and his leg was back in the goal. The puck was on edge and shoved against his pad. It was clearly a goal. And the refs took at least 5 minutes staring into the iPad to determine it wasn't. When the review took so long, I knew the Ducks were in trouble. You know, it takes time for Toronto to reach Bettman at that hour for a ruling.

 

[Sea Bass]

Are you presenting this as conclusive evidence?

This one is clearer. There are others even clearer. If you are questioning this, it's because you just want to argue. There is no question the puck crossed the goal line.

League hates the ducks I guess.
