Did they? Did they Really?
I mean we dumped Subban ASAP
We took our sweet time with Pacioretty
By comparison it took WPG an enternity to do something about Kane .
Kane they knew what they were getting into after 6 years and a relocation with him , Cant say otherwise.
I never said the two were related
You brought up Character and i toasted you because of it on every level.
Until then i 100% agreed with you so stop making excuses and own it
You're just trying to say Schiefele can be as horrible to players and Chefs on and off ice with no responsibility ever being taken .
But a 17 year old who owned his actions , paid for his crimes and has done a lot to raised awareness on the subject is a lesser person . . . .
Had you just not brought up the "character " non sense we'd be sitting here agreeing still
Its like when you got on Anderson because Habs fans posted admittably Horrible low ball trades for weeks so you began spamming posts with this "Cap dump " non sense.
We had a debate and in the end we agreed on about 90% of everything once i realized what was triggering your bias.
Im not saying Schiefele is Evil im asking you to have some consistency .
If Mailloux in his situation can be so wrecklessly labeled like you did to him earlier .
Its 100% justifiable to hold someone who's shown no remoarse accountable as we have Schiefele .
You dont have to like it but Double Standards get called out and Intent always matters as much as Actions.
Mailloux's shown he's evolved and has went above whats asked and beyond .
Has Schiefele ? No
For Kane you have to remember that most of his real bad stuff happened after the Jets dumped him. As soon as he pissed off his teammates in Winnipeg he was gone.
The rest of your stuff about Scheifele is just whining about dissimilar situations and your player being hurt. There's no double standards, just an in-game cheapshot that happens all the time and an actual real life action that has real life consequences.
So, any in-game transgression is handled by the NHL and any real world transgression is handled by real world laws.
The consistency is there on my part. Maybe you need to strive for some consistency on this matter? You want everyone to forgive and forget what Mailloux has done, but want to be able to continue to persecute Scheifele because, well, you want to. Scheifele committed the crime, had to deal with death threats from Montreal fans to himself and his family and did his time according to NHL rules and hasn't done something similar again. But according to you, deserves no forgiveness because he hit a Montreal player.
I'm wondering if you had this same disdain for cheap hits when Corey Perry was trying to injure opposing players game in and game out when he played for Montreal.
