Mike Smith Huge Dive

[LordKOTL]

Something about the Smith hit needs to be said. Smith weighs a lot more than Shaw. How is it physically possible for him to spin *faster* than Shaw was skating by without him channelling his inner David Beckham?

And what happened to Hossa and every other player who has suffered an injury due to an illegal careless hit is why those who dive and embellish should also be punished. It makes a mockery out of those who actually do get hurt and it makes a mockery out of real injuries and the seriousness of them. It just adds onto the problems and dumb downs the fans.

EXACTLY!!!!! SPOT-ON!!! I am bringing a "diver down" flag to game 4.

Have you ever seen a catch glove fly off their hand and into the net? Usually one time will cure them of that!



I wear my blocker looser, but it's still snug.

that's what I'm saying. The trapper is tight. It's next to impossible to have that thing fly off on impact unless you're hit by a goddamn 18 wheeler.
