Alfredsson's shot on Niedermayer

[James 0]

I am watching game 4 right now and at the end of the second period Alfredson took a slap shot directly at Niedermeyer. How long do you think he will be suspended?

[joshy207 15]

Stupid play, just stupid. It wasn't an accident either, Alfie was looking up-ice when he shot that puck.

[mack 44]

He should get two games. One for being a puss and doing this and the other to make up for Neil not getting a game.

[James 0]

That's a good way of seeing it, but how could you do that? I have lost all respect for Alfredson

[mack 44]

It wouldn't work like that. The way things seem to be going for Ottawa he probably won't get anything for it other than the shame that comes from everyone knowing what a sackless pile of crap he is.

I hate Alfredson but mack you have to admit hes a talented player. That was so stupid though. I think he should get two games for that and the punch after but if its judged the way that game was called then he wont get anything maybe a game.

What does being a talented player have to do with him being gutless? Granted I've hated Alfie for many, many years, but him being good doesn't negate the fact he is one of the biggest pieces of human shit in the league.

he wont get anything for the punch in the scrum. That should of been just a roughing minor.

The slap shot at niedermeyer should get him a suspension...but sadly it wont

[JR Boucicaut 3805]

How much time was left when he took the shot? I was not watching the game at the time.

[s Greens 0]

probably about 2 seconds

He had enough time to look up at the clock, then directly down at Niedermayer, fire the puck, and still not have the horn blow. It was inexcusable.

Well I hate every single player on the Ducks as well as just the entire franchise in general, so any cheap shot to any Duck player is 'music to my ears'. I would say the Ducks are owed a few with the crap they shell out season after season.

Ignorant.

I'm trying to think of reasons why someone would have such a hate-on for Alfredsson and the only thing I can think of is that you're a Finn or a Leafs fan. What has Alfredsson done to deserve such hate? He's not even close to being "one of the biggest pieces of shit in the league."

Actually, he looked up at the clock, pulled back like he was going to shoot, kind of stopped and turned more toward Niedermayer, then fired at him.

Alfredsson is a smart player, so it's hard to imagine he suddenly became that big of a moron to do this unintentionally. I was surprised he did not get an unsportsmanlike penalty. I'll be really surprised if he doesn't get suspended.

Dumb... just really dumb.

his excuse that i saw on sportscenter was:

"the puck stopped gliding and it was in my feet, so i had to re-position it to get a shot"

Last night... I stopped myself from rifiling off a shot from the point because I saw the backs of someones legs in the way.

The kicker is, I don't really like the guy.

I have self control, and by NHL standards... I F*CKING SUCK ASS!

What kind of a lowlife takes a cheap shot on someone with a LETHAL projectile?

Just plain goddamned ignorant!

suspend his sorry, lame, pathetic, cheap shot ass indefinately before he kills someone!

yeah, alfredsson is a ticking timebomb... really.

I was going to suggest that maybe he was just trying to dump the puck into the corner & let the clock run out and Niedermayer just happened to be in the way.

I guess not.

On a related note, the ice was horrible-guys falling all over the place, pucks being mishandled, it's gotta be better than that for a finals game.

Gutless bush league beer league play. I never thought I would see that in the NHL again(Lyle Odelein was the last guy but he shot at the bench) but nothing surprises me anymore.

it says alot about the referees when they miss the pronger hit in game 3 and then this in game 4. it definatly deserved a penalty as it was just stupid but i cant see the league giving him a match ban unfortunatly

so as i see it ottawa is still up in the cheapshot dept. nothing will happen, i find the canadian media is a lot tougher against teams down here than up there.

[Allsmokenopancake 0]

The whole series has been called with a pro-ottawa bias from my point of view.

I don't have a dog in the race at all, with the one exception being I am hoping for a game 6, because thats the next time I can get back to my friends house (60 inch hi-def) for a game.

But the refs have been calling this in favor of the sens.
