Thursday Morning Coffee- It looks a lot worse than it actually is.

The accusations have come flying fast and furious. The Canucks are divers. Nashville and their fans are crying foul over a couple penalty calls in the last game, and that of course has been amplified into outrage by fans of other teams and media. Nashville head coach Barry Trotz said "That’s gamesmanship, and I understand that... It’s also a little bit putting the referee in a tough spot. We have the best referees. If you’re going to make them look bad, I don’t think that’s needed in the game." That comment was mild compared to what some of his players were saying after the game. Was the Luongo penalty a bad call? Yes. The Kesler one? No. You can sit there and whinge all you want about making that call in OT, but when Weber hooks Kes and stops moving his feet for a 5 count right in front of the officials, what are they supposed to do? So Nashville fans crying foul rings a little hollow. Why? Let's just say it's about fowl, not foul...
The interesting thing about the playoffs is that sometimes, the previous round seems so far away, it may as well have been last season. Sure I could point out that the Canucks had to deal with a mountain of press more concerned about what happened the last two post-season meetings against the Blackhawks, but whatever. No today I want to talk about the hypocrisy of the Preds and their fans, and the media's sudden memory loss. Yes, let's talk fowl, shall we?
It was in the first round that the Predators faced the Anaheim Ducks, and Anaheim coach Randy Carlyle and GM Bob Murray were angry about a number of instances where they felt the Preds were diving, leading Murray to quip that his Ducks would need to start diving like the Predators to draw penalties. The response from Trotz? "I think it's more disrespectful to the players that are playing in the league," Trotz said. He went on to point out that Anaheim had approx. 500 more penalty minutes than Nashville during the season. That to me speaks volumes. It's not like the officials don't know who's on the ice. So it wouldn't be inconceivable to engage in a little 'gamesmanship' if you knew it could benefit your team, right?
Every team embellishes calls. Especially with the stakes so high, players are going to do whatever it takes to get a shot at the Cup. The moral outrage aimed towards the Canucks, when it was the Preds themselves being accused of the same thing is ridiculous. There are good calls and bad calls. The Canucks have found themselves on the other side of that coin more often than not. Conspiracy? Nope, just the way it goes. But before you start putting labels on this team, a glance into the mirror would help.
Key Lime Pie (Don't judge me...)
While a number of people predicted Tampa Bay would beat the Washington Capitals, I would venture to say only a handful said they would sweep them. Once again they are trying to figure out what went wrong in DC, as regular season success didn't translate into a long playoff run. The big question now is will they make coach Bruce Boudreau walk the plank, or give him one more shot. From a number of their big guns going silent, to a defence that seemingly forgot how to defend, and a goalie that couldn't get it done, the Caps have a number of issues to look at now that they're done... I have to say I am shocked that the Detroit Red Wings are in danger of being swept by the San Jose Sharks, especially after the way they systematically destroyed Phoenix in the first round. The team that looked like a post-season juggernaut now looks old and tired against a Sharks team with something to prove, and the Wings will need a miracle to salvage this series... Meanwhile it's Deja-vu again as the Bruins sit ready to eliminate the Flyers in 4 straight. Once again goaltending is a major concern for Philadelphia,as their goaltending by committee act seems to be running out of steam. The odds of them coming back again this season are astronomical to say the least, and without a goalie that they can get 60 minutes out of, this Flyers team is done like dinner... After dropping the first two games of the series, the Manitoba Moose took advantage of home ice and rattled off a couple wins against the Hamilton Bulldogs. Mario Bliznak notched the winner in double overtime last night to tie the series at 2 a piece. The Moose were close to losing this one, but a Guillaume Desbiens goal with 2:02 left in the third sent it to OT. Game 5 goes Friday at the MTS Center in Winnipeg, with game 6 in Hamilton Sunday.

The second album from this band, it saw them move from their thrash roots to a more death metal sound, and in doing so became a very influential album on the burgeoning death metal scene. This was the band's last album with bassist/ vocalist Martin Van Drunen, and the band would release two more albums before calling it a day. They reunited in 2008 with a new album, and toured North America last year.

indeed...very strange
Logic would tell us that as teams advance they become more evenly matched. The opposite appears to be happening.
I enjoy how we believe there’s a conspiracy to send “Bettman’s teams” far into the playoffs (think Carolina, Tampa Bay), yet these Preds fans believe there’s a conspiracy to send a Canadian team deep (think Edmonton, Calgary). Or maybe they are trying to send big market teams (Chicago, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh). What the hell is going on??

personally
I like melodic death metal. There’s a band from Victoria called Mitochondrian you could try listening to. If you think of the voice as another instrument instead of trying to identify the words you kinda get the music more ( in my opinion).
Just like when i was a kid listening to classical music, no words but a lot of feeling.
I checked out Mitochondrian…they have a bunch of songs on youtube. Cool stuff. I agree – it’s more enjoyable (to me, at least) when I’m not trying to figure out the lyrics and just listen. That double-bass is crazy.
I’ve seen them live a few times now – of course i wear earplugs at all concerts otherwise i wouldnt just be that old cranky lady in the corner, i’d be the old deaf cranky lady in the corner lol.
I’m gonna nag Waach to start doing his metal blog and/or podcast again. It’s amazing the stuff he knows about metal.
Salo in

No conspiracy afoot
but that call in OT was rather weaksauce. Just in this instance, you guys were on the happy side of the reffing, instead of the unhappy side.
the problem is
the refs let things go so long the players tried to get away with whatever they could. It was still a penalty. Poor game management? Sure. But that’s on them, not us.

Neither call was bad
What is Smithson (or whatever AHL player that was) doing with his stick near a goalie’s mask? Obvious penalty.
How did Weber’s stick end up in Kesler’s midsection? I’ve reviewed the video and I do not see Kesler reach down to ice level and pull it up to chicken wing it. Another clear penalty, hooking, holding, whatever you wanna call it.
The only reason the Predators are in this series at all is Rinne. And he could win the series for them.
Anyone else think Shea Weber gonna look good in Ranger or Leaf blue?
people complain about Luongo's role in that
yet they seem to forget thanks to Sean Avery, refs have a very dim view of players getting into the goalie’s grill like that.

I think it's very different from Avery
Avery did it continuously over a powerplay when Brodeur was trying to see what was going on, while a Dman was taking the puck out of our zone with no one else around.
I really don’t think that was a deserved penalty. Should Smithson have done it? Probably not, but Lu sold that HARD, and it wouldn’t have been a penalty otherwise

it definitely is very different from Avery, but to act like you can be careless with your stick just because the goalie has a mask on is not right either.
And like I said, what was Weber’s stick doing in a position where it could be chicken-winged anyway? (Really I just like saying “chicken-winged”)

I wasn’t commenting on Weber – that one is much more of a penalty than Smithson’s was

I am getting sick of this BS Semi.
Luongo “SOLD THAT HARD?”
FFS. Let me get you in a mask that encloses your face, and wave a stick right in front of you. Whether it hit or not ( and I believe him that it did ) you move your head back.
He sold NOTHING. He reacted to a stick in his face.
Its a penalty every time, and in an attempt to sound rational, you guys are buying this narrative about the Canucks and drawing penalties.
Its BS, and wrong. Smithson deserved the call, and Luongo did nothing wrong.
Period.

Okaaaay Dan.
Lu did nothing wrong? NOTHING? Really? I’ve seen replays of that, and Lu’s head snaps back well after the stick is passed in front of him, and he throws it back way too far.
I know what a reaction to something being put in front of my face is, and it’s a slight flinch back. NOT cranking my neck back so I’m looking up in the air.
Frankly I find your saying that Lu did nothing wrong to be BS.
Evidence:

"Playin hurt, baby that don't faze me. I don't got time for pain. The only pain I've got time for is the pain I put on fools who don't know what time it is!"

I don’t have a horse in this race, but I agree with Semi.
When someone is wearing a full facemask and they get tapped with a stick (or if the stick comes close but doesn’t touch), you flinch, you don’t swing your head back like you got a right hook from Mike Tyson.
It looks bad, I’m just saying I want a better angle before I make a decisive judgement. Is that too much to ask?

Good Lord Semi
Unclench a sec. We can have disagreements all the time here. Its part of it.
But really, are you saying that you never have said the same tired narrative about Lui all the time?
I don’t have the time to go back through a bunch of threads, but I can guarantee that you said it when Fish bumped him after being saved on the breakaway.
I know you said it all the time in the man, many dicussions on the subject with hawks fans.
Its OK to have a bias Semi. I know you can be counted on to say Lui is a diver as much as I will try to find something possible to say about him, to a fault sometimes.
Thats my bias. I am OK with it. I looked in the mirror like Stuart Smiley and have made my peace with it.
I call the narrative a joke. I call the way you ( and sometimes Sean ) further that narrative.
Fuck every time there is a bump on the big guy, you can probably find one of the two saying he dove.

I did call you a joke. The context and inference is that its the idea and not the person.
I think both you and Big Daddy Zandberg are ACES in my book.
But you both have a bias in regards to Lui and the subject of what you call embellishment or diving.

To derision. Now I see people coming around.
EVERYBODY dives! This assumption that Lui is somehow a Lawrence Olivier to other’s Pauly Shore is not a narrative that I buy.
It gets out there and becomes a common assumption.
It does not make it right. Like the Bulis guys pointed out, Smithson went down hard on a phantom stick, and the Preds were diving so bad the GM of the opposing team chose to talk about that and not the refs.
Yet, in a series that special teams is a big part of, the Pred’s POV is the only one getting any traction.

So Lu embellished. So what. The refs either call it or don’t call it. Too many people around here have some kind of distorted idea of how hockey should be played. I don’t get it. Drawing penalties is part of the game.
People die people die people die people die go ahead sleep tight in your beds remember what the wise man said
I'm not saying it was the same
but they have a very low tolerance for players waving their sticks in goalies faces, as they should. They’re only doing it because they wear the mask, and if it were a player they tried to do it to, they’d likely get tossed for attempt to injure

my thoughts
Canucks have had better special teams so far, and Preds fans feel this means that there shouldn’t be penalties otherwise it’s not a fair series.
Hopefully the world doesn’t work out that way.
that's faulty logic...
penalties are pretty much even in the series… if someone thinks it’s not fair their team’s PP isn’t clicking, they need to sit down and learn about hockey

Preds fan here
While I didn’t like the Weber penalty call in OT I have to agree with most of you. It was a penalty but even so I don’t know that you’d want that called on your team in OT. Would you?
But all that said…kill the penalty and I guarantee sometime before the OT was over the Pred’s would have gotten a call to go their way later. That is how hockey has worked in the 25 years I’ve watched and played. Keep playing and stop whining…it makes us look like friggin cry-babies (like Anaheim). I found Anaheim’s crying whiny at the time and the Pred’s whining is no different.
The biggest reason that Vancouver is up 2-1 and Nashville is down is special teams. You’ve capitalized more often on the PP (the shorthanders wipe each other out) 5 vs 5 play has been pretty even. If Nashville is going to win this series we need to capitalize when we have an advantage. And Rinne will need to continue to play lights out goaltending.
Get 1-2 power play goals per game and suddenly Vancouver will be in a world of hurt (if we can keep you off the board.)

Hockey is growing by leaps and bounds in the US
Nashville is no different. The ice sheets around here are so full that you can’t hardly get on the ice unless you are already on a team.
My hope is that with a deep playoff run the sport will continue to grow in this market and we’ll finally get a 3RD!!! ice rink within 50 miles to play on.
Right now we have 4 sheets of ice within the 50 miles. And you can NEVER play outside. How many rinks can you think of in Vancouver within 50 miles? (Not counting the giant Arenas that we never get to play in.)
In Vancouver
Let me take a look in the phone book and do an eyeball.
In Vancouver proper, there is 9, including a small patch of ice right D/T at Robson square with no boards.
That says nothing about the private ones, and all the other ones in the other municipalities around the Lower Mainland. People get up very early to take their kids to any available ice.
But its more , in Canada, how even small towns have nice rinks ( though there are just as many old and shitty ones that need replacing )…thats most every small town.
If I went by the 50 miles from D/T, I would conservatively estimate 50 or so though.
Nuckās Misconduct Bishop, 1st United Church of Luongod, "There's comments about referees, I'll let (general manager) Mike (Gilles) handle that. He does a pretty good job," Vigneault said. AP 5/4/11
Within 50 miles? No idea… within Vancouver-proper there’s 8. That list doesn’t have the rink at Pacific Coliseum either. Maybe after the olympics they got rid of it. UBC also has two or three, even if it doesn’t count as Vancouver.
If you give a low estimate of 4 in each suburb with in 50km (West Van, North Van, Delta, Surrey, Burnaby, New West, Coquitlam, Chilliwack, Abbotsford, Langley, Aldergrove, Richmond and White Rock) that’s 52 rinks. Although I know for a fact that Burnaby and Richmond have about 8, I’m being conservative because I don’t know the number of the others.
That doesn’t count the fact that Vancouver is less than 50km within the US border, nor the sunshine coast (only one or two rinks there) or off the coast (Vancouver Island probably has a number of rinks).
So within the Lower Mainland, which has a population of 2.5 million people, there’s about 60 rinks.
And by the way, you don’t get to play out doors here, either.

Every team embellishes calls. Especially with the stakes so high, players are going to do whatever it takes to get a shot at the Cup.
Just because every team does it, doesn’t make it right. It especially doesn’t make it right when it if for the Cup. Takes away from the integrity of it all.
Solution – tougher fines / suspensions on players. I do not accept players diving or embellishing and I also think fans have a right to ask for a higher level of officiating.

im still confused about the whole thing… so black holes dont go anywhere? they are like holding a piece of “black” paper infront of you.. blocking out whats behind it? but its 1 dimensional?
so black holes dont go anywhere?
- Black holes act similar to any other large mass. If the sun suddenly gained the same properties as a black hole, we’d still be revolving around it as before. The only difference would be we wouldn’t be getting any light.
they are like holding a piece of "black" paper infront of you.. blocking out whats behind it? but its 1 dimensional?
- It’s still spherical. The event horizon is typically very close to the singularity, so you’re getting extremely close to an extremely dense mass. Light behaves differently and will actually bend to this mass because it has such a huge density. Light usually travels in straight lines, which is the basis of how we perceive this world. As one gets closer to this “black paper”, light will no longer be traveling at a straight line, but will instead bend away from you and towards the paper. So if you look at a point behind you, and imagine that instead of traveling directly towards you, it bends towards the paper instead. Because the light’s bent that way, it will look like the light where it had come from has been blocked, which is why it closes all around you.

The fact a guy almost a century ago mentally constructed a space-time vortex and it proves to be true, almost down to the exact size, is simply amazing.
It also makes me feel even stupider that I still struggle tacking 20% tips onto restaurant bills…#feeblebrain

For 15% move the decimal over two spots, have that amount, and then add it to the previous amount. Or double the tax and take on a bit extra because the GST was reduced.

Yeah that I did get.
I was thinking about how amazing it was that things Einstein thought however long ago are still puzzling to world class geniuses today.

another cool thing
is that Einstein figured out things by imagining himself flying through space. So it wasn’t like he sat down at a desk and used math or something and then said ‘Bzinga! Black Holes!" He thought it up and then he proved it. I realize he thought it up because he knew what could be possible mathwise but he had to imagine it too.
I always figured math wizzes to be fact people devoid of daydream abilities.
There’s an interesting discussion on black matter and black anti matter holes here if you’re interested
Yay thanks. And yes, anyone who succeeds tends to be multi-talented. That’s why a lot of my profs tend to be good musicians or painters or what have you. Same with some doctors I’ve known.

apparently music and high level math are the same thing.
Apparently you use exact the same parts of your brain.
I've heard that before, but
it leaves out the important dimension of focus. I’m a multi instrumentalist musician (i can play 11 different instruments passably and can teach 4 of em) with strong-ish skills in both creating and repeating musical passages, and yet always sucked at higher math. Its either cuz i’m a bit dumb or cuz i just don’t focus on math. One of those reasons debunks the theory straight out, the other makes it incomplete. I guess a third theory is that i’m a savant, but that wouldn’t make sense either cuz i’d be better at the music and worse at everything else.

This reminds me of Detroit (Sharks fan)
Sure Kesler embellished, but not as bad at Todd Bertuzzi’s dive. The hypocrisy is also there when Winging It In Motown has headlines like this. But I honestly think if you’re the ref, you shouldn’t call either penalties.

Well that makes sense
Most of the people I follow are Canucks fans, so if twitter is the start of the conspiracies it’s all Vancouver’s fault. It’s all so clear now.

"You can't stop him, you can only hope to contain Kent Huskins!" - Randy Hahn 2/13/11
Yeah, I know that is the reason why you don’t hear about it. Which is stupid in my mind. If you’re going to pitch a fit about chintzy OT calls, you should pitch a fit about ALL of them, not just the ones which lead to goals. But that’s too much to ask from some people, especially when it relates to the Canucks
