BrenDittero Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 Wow, Shanny's not messing around. I'd be curious to know if his rulings actually become a deterrent. 8 games for ex-Hab Wisniewski. The repeat offender comes into play here for sure.

BrenDittero Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 It'll be a deterrent as long as he is constant I didn't have a whole lot of faith in Shannahan making much of a difference a couple days ago. Still kinda jaded about the system in general (Patch / Chara ), but I like what we're seeing so far from the new sheriff. Consistency will be the key, let's hope he keeps it up.

Fanpuck33 Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 Ouch, 8 games for Wiz. Good thing the Jackets tend to be a strong starting team. I didn't realize he'd been suspended four times already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mandy Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 Wisnewski seemed so .... tame, with the Habs last year lol. What was he thinking?? Given his record, and the after-the-whistle fact ... Good on Shanahan. Can't wait to see what he does when a star player happens to be the offender. Very impressed with the vids of him explaining everything three times lol. Makes it absolutely clear.

YeahBud Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 This is the reform our league needed. Kudos to Shanny. I think his consistent application of the rules thus far should definitely help to deter future incidents. I love his succinct dissection of the plays. He knows so much more than some suit in the NHL front office. He's got integrity and class and I hope he can continue to be a confident disciplinarian.

lazy26 Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 Did he get a suspension with the habs? I don't believe so. His only suspension last year was for his pantomime to Avery.

SOOPAVILLIN Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 I'm liking the consistency with Shanny. Is he also in charge of the officials? If he is I hope he makes their jobs easier to provide more consistency, cause, as far as their concerned their still as random and inconsistent as Colin Campbell was. It's only pre-season, and the refs are frustrating me already. If we have another season where the habs are amongst the league leaders in minors, there is certainly something wrong here.

He is only in charge of "player safety issues." He only is involved in dangerous hits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarkyMark Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 I think Shanahan is doing a great job as the new sherrif in town.Walk into the room with a big stick and whack away.Players especially Jody Shelley and James Wisniewski are going to think twice next time a player is vulnerable and they take a cheapshot.There is no more take 1 for the "team" anymore cause the "team" aint chipping in and helping out with the big fines.8 games is 10% of Shelleys salary or 3 weeks with out a paycheck,and Shelly doesn't make $5 mill a year.More like $1 mill. so that hit just cost him $100,000.Wisniewski may not have got as many games but he makes 4 times the money Shelly makes so the fine is bigger and seeing how both players are repeat offenders I would not like to be in their skates next time they **** up.

Fanpuck33 Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 This is the type of hit that very difficult to discipline. It was just a case of Campoli's head being on a level plane with Malone's shoulder. It's what happens most times when a taller player hits a shorter player.

bbp Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 Yeah it is really too close too call there. If Malone had made contact like a moment later it would have been completely clean. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lazy26 Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 Really tough call here. I'm just glad Campoli seems ok, or I'd be outraged and sign up for the "NHL vs. MTL" conspiracy group. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YeahBud Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 tough call on the suspension. While it wasn't the cleanest of hits I think Malone could have hit him much worse or much less.. I believe that Campoli took a calculated risk in trying to chip the puck forward. He knew he was going to get hit and tried to spin off of Malone.. I am just glad he's ok. And I really love how Josh Gorges jumped in right away afterwards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueKross Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 Just let the sheriff do his work. I don't want every call debated at nausium. In all sports,the best scenario is when the referees- sheriff go unnoticed. We do not need a CIRCUS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commandant Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 (edited) Really tough call here. I'm just glad Campoli seems ok, or I'd be outraged and sign up for the "NHL vs. MTL" conspiracy group. Its not a conspiracy against Montreal, its just Shanahan protecting Steve Yzerman's team. Protecting your buddy's team is the new protecting your son's team. I'm not being serious in saying that conspiracy stuff; but in all honesty, I really don't understand this call. How this is different from the Brendan Smith/Ben Smith or Abdelkader/MacArthur hits, I don't know.

How this is different from the Brendan Smith/Ben Smith or Abdelkader/MacArthur hits, I don't know. really? The difference is that Smith/Abdelkader didn't change their head position "just prior to or during the hit" leaving the onus on the Checker to deliver a full body hit. In Campoli's case he lunged for the puck just prior to/during the hit which put his head in a vulnerable position. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
