NHL Worst Plays Of The Week: He Dented The Stanley Cup! | Steve's Dang-Its

[@simashley2614]

Dang-it from a Colorado policeman today who didn’t know who Bo Byram was and tried to force him over the fence back into the crowd.

[@JPMadden]

In the cop's defense, the whole encounter lasted about only 15 seconds.

[@dranyth]

To also be fair, Bo Byram looked like a drunk 16 year old today.

*Can you blame the cop? He's been taking crap ever since 2001, when he let a ten-year-old past the barricade who claimed he was Patrick Roy.*

[@dranyth]

I think the other dang-it on the Kadri OT goal was that two Tampa defenders let a man who hadn't played a game in 18 days and whose thumb was broken in two places and surgically repaired, go right through them like nothing and still get off a shot that somehow beat Vasi. (Though if you watch the shot, it seems obvious that he didn't really get all of the puck, it came off of the end of his stick very strangely, maybe that's why it fooled Vasi just enough?) Certainly a bizarre play overall, and sure weird things can happen, but the Bolts had done almost *nothing* in that OT. It seemed fairly likely that even if that hadn't been a goal, it was only a matter of time before the Avs scored, the Lightning were getting absolutely shelled.

Already down in the series 3 games to 1, and with his team losing Game 5 105-73, LeBron just straight up leaves the game and heads towards the locker room with 5:41 left. Clearly the game was over, but he didn't stay on the bench with his team. Didn't shake hands with his opponents, with his team.

What is most surprising is that this doesn't speak about any serious offenses by any team on the ice. It doesn't include Toews' crosscheck on Kucherov, it doesn't include McDonagh boarding Helm, none of that.

You sir, are truly evil.

Stamkos shot the puck at the official after the boarding call not after the winning goal. :)

Dang it for Corey Perry 🤣

I believe the "Kiss my ass" was mainly directed at all the racist Blues fans. That being said, I fully stand with Naz and his statement. So proud of my Avalanche!

[@Grateful_Dad_54]

Would love to see you do a Dang-it on the hilarious triple-play the White Sox got themselves into!

[@geoffkemp7]

Ah yeah, the lightning turn into baby rage losers when faced with a team that should actually be in the final and not some scrub who got there due to coivd bubble crap.

[@mr.ilikespammobileedition592]

One of those team had Carey price that was the difference

12:35. This is actually something I get to do a lot. I've been a hockey fan living in either Texas or Kansas my entire life and don't have a single other friend who follows the sport. I bring friends to minor league games all the time and most of the time, they'll ask questions and try to understand the sport and I honestly love teaching people about it.

[@kaydencooper619]

Which teams in Kansas?

[@holthogan5562]

@@kaydencooper619 the Wichita Thunder of the ECHL. They're the affiliates of the Oilers.

[@kaydencooper619]

@@holthogan5562 yooooooo! I used to have box tickets there. I haven’t been to a game in a while but they were fun when they didn’t play like crap

[@Trooper1973]

Great recap

[@zagzagal42]

Off topic but what is the framed "NA" jersey on the backdrop?

[@belligerent-irony]

In box lacrosse any shot that hits the goalie directly in the face gets blown dead immediately. I always considered it making sense so you don't just aim for the goalies head. When it comes to changing on the fly with box lacrosse you can actually pass to the person you're changing off with. But possessions work a lot more different then with hockey. It's more like basketball in that respect. You can also destroy people who don't have the ball and there's no such thing as offside.

Steve, babying the cup means less history, and fewer stories. Ding it, dent it, just make sure you pay to put it right. And, I'm happy to report: they didn't drop it at the parade.

[@matthewboser8484]

I love that! Celebrate every goal with your chest!

[@SellisD]

*2012 Calder cup* I started thinking back to where I heard this from. Then I remembered Tokarski won the cup that year and I did a school report on Tokarski.

[@LancePuns]

On the topic of the goaltender mask - change the rule to something like the following: "If a goaltenders mask falls off due to a shot or interference from an opposing player, play must be blown dead and the clock reset to the time the mask fell. Additionally, if a goaltender's mask is clearly and obviously damaged but is still worn, the goaltender has the right to take off the mask and force play dead. Should a goaltender take his mask off during play and, upon inspection or review, the mask is not damaged clearly or obviously, the goaltender will take a 2 minute minor penalty." Protects goaltenders from playing through any mask equipment errors while also discouraging trying to game the rules around it. I'm sure there's still probably holes in this idea, but that could easily be ironed out before implementing it completely.

[@oKingsWild]

"...the goaltender shall incur a bench minor penalty for Delay of Game."

[@LancePuns]

@@oKingsWild yeah, that. I knew my wording was off there but I didn't know how to word it correctly. It got my point across though👍

[@nuj2187]

10:42 they say series tied 2-2 as if Tampa won

[@dar5647]

I like that comment about being able to celebrate goals. Im and avs fan and weve had a lot of disallowed goals in the last few years. Its to the point that when the avs won the cup, i was waiting for some penalty or something to make a reason we didnt win it yet.

[@lemonisoursquid6101]

I think the bigger dangit on that Kadri game-winning goal is that the TV studio put the series as being tied after that goal lol.

[@SirChanceABot]

My thoughts on the Darcy Kuemper Mask Off Goal: The Dang-It is on MacKennon for not playing to the whistle. If he even as much as puts his stick out he blocks it and gets the play stopped for the mask off. He's lucky it didn't matter at the end of the game. I think it was a good goal, just because the player got the immediate rebound and put it back.

[@broadstreetbullies849]

I forgot producer Drew was an Avs fan

[@patodonnell3328]

We were bad back then. Once we got rid of Matt everyone got better. He is a good hockey player, but it felt like he was the last of the old guards and once he left, we completed the transition to a new team.

[@jp2411]

Anyone else notice the score box as Vasy was skating towards the bench went from Colorado leading the series 2-1 to saying series tied 2-2, even though Colorado won that game? That's a dang-it

[@adambrooks446]

Whoes team panel did they sent?

[@peterpike]

They mailed the Stanley Cup to Landeskog...'s neighbor. So, there's that too.

[@TheSherlockbones77]

Missed dang-it after the Kadri OT goal... espn updates the series from 2-1 to 2-2. One of many dang-its on espn this entire playoffs.

[@jonmendelson1104]

That's a dang-it on Sportsnet, not ESPN. (Note: I can't say for sure ESPN didn't do the same)

[@mcj88]

The goalie mask rule, eXCePT iN aN iMMiNeNT SCoRiNG SiTuaTioN, that's so dumb; you just know someone's gonna get seriously hurt because of that someday, ala Jacques Plante in the 50s, at which point they'll _have_ to change the rule to a blanket "if the mask comes off at all, play stops". Or you know, they could just do it now and save themselves the future PR trouble, but who ever wants to do a necessary thing _now?_

[@theonlybomber]

You should do a Dang It on the misspellings that are currently engraved on the Cup
