Oh wait I forgot, Shanahan asked Lucic if he meant it and he said, "no", so I guess they're the same.

Lol, I want Shanahan as the investigator if I killed someone.


Detective Shanahan: "Sir, We have thousands of people witnessed you kill that guy. did you really mean to kill him"

Me: "Uh.... No"

Detective Shanahan: "Oh, you didn't. Ok then, you're free to go"

Wow, I really thought he would be suspended. Disappointing.

But like most of you echoed, I'm concerned about the team's reaction the next time they face the Bruins.

Think the league will issue a warning?

After what Shanahan said today, he'll give any Sabre 5 games for sneezing in the direction of Boston's goal crease. I'd still run Thomas/Rask as soon as he's an inch outside the blue.

Even Fraser is calling bullshit on Shanny's decision.

From Shanahan:

"the reason this isn't, in my mind, supplemental discipline is because Lucic makes no movement towards Miller. It's shoulder-to-shoulder contact."

What!? He makes no movement towards miller? You mean besides skating top speed then smashing into him? Yeah, besides that, theres no movement towards miller. What a fucking retard.

Shannahan and the NHL are a fucking joke. Shanny called Ruff irresponsible because he said that if Lucic wasn't suspended it would mean goalies can be targeted outside the crease. WTF? The comment is irresponsible but the decision isn't? That's just stupid.
This decision means as soon as the goalie is outside the crease I can hit him with full force and will get 2min as long as I'm not changing direction. Of course if you can say "no, I didn't" convincingly afterwards in a conference call.

I would hit Thomas or Rask no matter what kind of warning the NHL will send. Sending a big "fuck you" to Boston and Shanny is way more important than any kind suspension.

So the 2 seconds from when Miller chucks the puck away from Lucic, There was no way for Lucic to change direction? Stop? Slow DOWN even? He wasn't even pushed into him. It was "lets go bowl into Miller for the hell of it" from Lucic, nothing else!

This job is way too important for just one guy to handle. There should be a judiciary committee.

I would be seriously surprised if anything happens that game. Lindy will warn the team not to do anything for fear of extreme retribution from dickbag Shanahan. I have absolutely no faith in Lindy or the team that they would do anything other than what the league orders.

I do hope they make me eat crow....

I definitely agree that a committee should handle these situations

It makes no sense. They've got a fucking war room to determine whether or not goals are legal, but one guy to determine player safety...

Shanahan calls the Sabres irresponsible? Give me a fuckin break. What was irresponsible was Lucic bulldozing Miller over, causing him to get a concussion, and then Shanahan not reprimanding him for it because he said he didn't mean to hurt Miller.

How many other assholes are going to take cheap shots and players and claim they were just "playing hard" and did not without an intention to hurt? I thought the NHL was going to start to issue a no tolerance policy that it doesn't matter if you intended to injure a player, a dangerous play is a dangerous play and you will get in trouble for it.

There is obviously no intent to do that.

The league is a joke on officiating and suspending people. I thought with Shanny's 5 or 6 suspensions in preseason things might change, it obviously hasn't.
