Today in literature we were talking about rhetoric in Paradise Lost—-I think Delly is pretty good himself, and from what I’ve heard can be disciplined about it too. Looks like our non-a-hole rec-sion of Downie. I had a deja vu of Zidane there.

For sure. Some will disagree with me, but I think it could be useful to have a smart agitator. With the Caps PP as dangerous as it is, a extra 2 min penalty or turning a 2 min minor into a 5 min major could have profound effects on a game.

Delly was thinking on his feet – his teammate Rinaldo (the Flyers prospect, of course) had just got done boarding Kain’s teammate with a huge hit that may very well be suspendible. Delly and Kain went to the faceoff jawing, and I wonder if Delly provoked him intentionally to get the exact reaction he did – a sucker punch, an immediate drop to the ice, the result being the enforcer dude safely out of the game and away from the Colts’ leet scorers.

Delly got tossed too – he was awarded a misconduct but not a fighting major. In my estimation, the refs knew Delly pushed Allicock into swinging first, but saw that he didn’t escalate into a fight.

The brawl came later, of course.

I also am thinking that Coach drew up this play.

I don’t think that SDR decided on his own what to do, though he was surely watching the Wolves agitators from the bench and knew he’d be called on a la Matt Bradley/Ovie/Downie.

Delly's a pretty good actor

And I am on the record as thinking he looks a little like a young Marlon Brando…

Delly didn’t get tossed. No game misconduct.

To be or not to be. That's not really a question.

I’m pretty sure SDR is an a-hole, and I’d hate him (as well as many others here) if he weren’t a Cap. He may be a smarter agitator than Downie, but he is certainly no angel and has his fair share of dickish moments.

I can’t stop laughing at “Kain Allicock.”

Sudbury just couldn’t deal with the fact Barrie is killing them and so have decided to go goon. Hopefully Barrie finishes the series in game 4 Wednesday.

I never liked Folingo when he played in the NHL. No surprise I don’t like how his OHL team plays either.

According to the official score sheet, Allicock was given 2 for instigating, 5 for fighting, a 10 minute misconduct, and a double game misconduct for abuse of the official. I’m guessing something like this would be automatically reviewed by the league for possible suspension? (Allicock does, after all, have a rap sheet already.)

SRD did get assesed a misconduct, but still, goading a guy into taking 37 minutes in penalties to give your team a 7-minute power play is full of win.
