Dougie Hamilton Fined For Embellishment

  1. The league must actually be fucking joking at this point, Necas takes the biggest dive of all time and nothing. Necas takes another big dive last night with nothing. But Dougie gets fucking fined.

  2. Wow this league is a joke. Apparently taking a stick to the nuts is now a fine.

  3. The way embellishment is enforced in the NHL illustrates exactly why such rules like “flopping” shouldn’t exist. If you really want to punish someone for such a thing, don’t call the penalty and the person acting will get caught out of positon. Their teammates will eventually tell them to stop since they’re being hung out to dry thanks to the overacting.

  4. What did you expect from a group of morons that’ don’t even know how to interpret the rules.

  5. I swear the NHL is testing me. We’ve played three games since…is it normal to fine someone so much later?

  6. Lol!!! 😂 I hope Dougie calls out what Necas did and says give me another fine for speaking facts about this joke of a league!

  7. This really has been the worse year for officiating for all of the NHL. Fucking embarrassing 😳

  8. Lol the NHL is such a joke. What a terrible league. We have Carolina acting like they belong in the Premier League but Dougie gets fined for that lmao ok

  9. The sad part about Necas is these Czech kids look up to players like him, and they embarrassed themselves last night against Canada in the WJC. Same shit – flopping for calls, but even worse they hold their knee like it just exploded, look right at the refs, and get right up after the call is made. That’s the bullshit we hate about soccer and it’s now officially in our sport by way of these European grease balls

  10. This decision combined with a RASH of goaltender interference goals ALLOWED (Wedgewood and Bobrovsky yesterday) it feels like there is legitimate evidence mounting towards a league conspiracy against the Devils lol.

    I get officiating is pretty bad overall, but to be this directly against the Devils lately is getting tough to swallow

  11. I mean in the clip they show he gets back up and eventually starts skating. It’s not like he stayed on the ice for like 5 minutes trying to milk a call…

  12. I see they spun the wheel. Thats DOPS for you, spin the wheel to get their outcome. Atleast they gave Rempe the right call(finally) same thing with that weasel from NSH. Since they are inconsistent and clueless.

  13. Gotta wonder at this point whether the devils are being targeted by the refs/league because of Keefe’s comments after the second Canes game

  14. Honestly, he probably dove here. Which is why he was fined. 

    The league needs to come down much harsher on diving in general. This is probably in response to Keefe’s comments about Necas. Keefe is right, but the league doesn’t care.

  15. How many times have actual floppers been penalized? We might take this fine if it actually meant stutzle was punished.

    Also the person blatantly hooking will never get punished, depending on how the refs are calling it and managing the game it’s legal. But the flopping is punished harder than something that’s not punished at all. The nhl always punishes the second guy more than they punish the first guy. Selective punishment is wide spread.

  16. It’s either a retroactive spite fine after Keefe and NJs social media spoke up or they just got back to the office today… My homer guess is the former.

  17. The fact that this rangers game so old makes this feel more like a petty emotionally punitive “You do it too” to the fans and organization. Total joke where I have to sit through this bullshit to watch a gambling ad.

  18. Welp…. I suppose we’re at the stage where the refs would like to continue fucking us between games as well.
    This is fun.
    Look at me having fun.
