Apparently Mr. Lecavalier feels Kennedy sold the spear he got to the stomach.

Lecavalier admitted he took a "bad penalty," retaliating for an elbow in the back of the head. He also said he simply jabbed Kennedy in the stomach, though Kennedy sold it as if he had been stabbed. Lecavalier said he believed he deserved only a two-minute penalty. "(The referee) saw it as a five, and that kind of changed the game," he said. "I don't think it was the right call."




Right Vinny, because 5-1 is SUUUCH a different outcome than 7-1.

As if we dont fucking OWN tampa, no matter WHAT calls are made on the ice.

(kind of like the next time the sens beat us, I wont be blaming it on one call)

It did change the game. Losing Lecavalier completely deflated the team, leading the Sabres on to have a good old-fashioned romp.



Well, if we hadnt turned them into our pretty little bitches the past few years, i'd say that would have been more of a determining factor, but cmon...vinny doesnt lead his team to victory over the sabres that often.

I disagree.

If he slashed him, call a slash.

If speared him, call a spear.

Referees shouldn't decide that a act was a 'minor spear' and call it something else just to skirt the automatic penalties associated with the spear.

i never said it should have been called otherwise. and whether you agree or not, things like that happen a lot. instead of boarding, it's interference- etc.

Lol Minor spear sounds so funny... "Oh he only stabbed you a little, 2 mins for him"
