kylekrische Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 This is one of the most poorly handled situations I've ever seen from every camp. As for hockey, love the 3v3 OT. Remember too we haven't really seen two legit NHL 3v3 squads face-off yet. Once more pros get in there it'll be a little smoother I think. Puck Daddy posted a great article about how the idea of the 3 forward OT is going to kill teams. Forwards just don't have the cap control/backwards skating/focused defensive knowledge that is taken for granted. Used that absolutely atrocious gap control on that Cracknell OT winner the other night as a good example. But yeah, fuck the shootout Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigSeth Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 Don't know if it's real or not, but I saw a press realease from the Erie County Police commissioner stating that all of the evidence is still in their custody and the kit shown by the alleged victims attorney wasn't real. Whether it's real or not, this Shit is getting stupid ridiculous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IanRees Posted September 25, 2015 Share Posted September 25, 2015 This just got crazier, lawyer for the accuser just dropped her as a client "I no longer have the confidence in the manner and means in which that bag came to my office." - Thomas J. Eoannou "I don't know how the bag got on the porch. I don't have confidence in the version that was told to me." - Thomas J. Eoannou Eoannou said "there may have been some fabrications" concerning bag. Said mother delivered it to him. "I don't know what's true or not true" Eoannou says bag is "a real evidence bag" from case. "I received storyline from mother, and I'm not comfortable w/ that version of events." Eoannou: "It's possible that the version of the events I received was inaccurate." Says nothing criminal has been done. Eoannou on whether mother was trying to manipulate this case: "I don't know what anyone was trying to do." Eoannou: "I don't have confidence in the way I was told the bag was found." Eoannou on if evidence bag mess calls accuser into question: "One has nothing to do w/ other." Said accuser not involved in bag situation.

KennyFuckingPowers Posted September 25, 2015 Share Posted September 25, 2015 So Rick Nash will score 30 goals a year on this 3-3 OT. It benefits players like him so damn much. He scores if he doesnt get hooked on his way to the net. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kgry Posted September 25, 2015 Share Posted September 25, 2015 I've been keeping up with the comments on all the news stories about this. They went from burn Kane at the stake to the accuser should be in jail overnight. I don't think this will ever go away unless the truthful story comes out.

IanRees Posted September 25, 2015 Share Posted September 25, 2015 I dont really think its fair to burn the accuser if she had nothing to do with it and it was all her mom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigSeth Posted September 25, 2015 Share Posted September 25, 2015 Definitely. But why would her mom sabotage the case like that? So many questions. I just want the fucking truth. If Kane did it, okay fucking release his ass and prosecute him. In the *rare* case the victim was lying, fine let's move on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
avery Posted September 25, 2015 Share Posted September 25, 2015 I dont really think its fair to burn the accuser if she had nothing to do with it and it was all her mom. do you really believe she had nothing to do with it though? i'm not convinced either way and think the DA's statement is a cautious one... as in they wouldn't say the accuser had anything to do with it if they didn't have the proof to come out and say that. i think it doesn't look like she had anything to do with her mom's lack of credibility or whatever is going on there, but i also think no one really knows yet. it doesn't really look that great that she has 2 other peoples' dna on her but not kane's, but who knows... maybe he used a condom. i'm not sure on the deetz on her ordeal with him as told in the police report so who knows what they were supposed to find. are you stoked on hockey being back? i'm not not stoked, but i feel less excited about the preseason than usual. i'm not sure if it's just that i have a lot of other life stuff going on right now so i'm distracted or if it's the kings.

I don't really know but i'm gonna give her the benefit of the doubt for the time being are you stoked on hockey being back? i'm not not stoked, but i feel less excited about the preseason than usual. i'm not sure if it's just that i have a lot of other life stuff going on right now so i'm distracted or if it's the kings. yeah i'm stoked but i don't care about pre-season, never really have.

steventangent Posted September 26, 2015 Share Posted September 26, 2015 This is just an ugly intersection where idol worship, misogyny, macho-bullshit culture, and big money collide. It's just solidified in the minds of thousands of idiotic, impressionable man-child sports fans that the world is full of women who cry "rape" and that men are the real victims in the end. As opposed to the 99.99999999% of the time it goes the other way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weinerdog Posted September 26, 2015 Share Posted September 26, 2015 I've only watched the 3-on-3 once, so maybe I didn't get a good look, but what I saw was bad (sharks/canucks) Both teams just cycled for 5 minutes and there were pretty much zero scoring chances.

Team Avatar Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 I didn't realize that they took away the 4-4. I thought it was going to be 4-4 and then 3-3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IanRees Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 I'm pretty sure it is 4v4 then 3v3 but they are doing all 3v3 to showcase it during the preseason Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
littlebistro Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 The 3v3 is just as bad, if not worse than shootouts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kylekrische Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 It'll get better. Teams are still testing the waters. Clearly the 3 forwards isn't going to work it's just too chaotic. I think by November you're going to see d-man, defensive forward and young speedy sniper and a more conservative game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
