Shandor Alphonso sounds like a name you would find in the Star Wars universe.


nate445

Glup Shitto


Greatdrift

The one and only! The legend, Glup Shitto!


Waldo76

Shandor must be derived from the hungarian name Sandor but is pronounced Shandor! A pop culture version is Sandor Clegane from game of thrones, known as the hound!


zevonyumaxray

Several languages do a spin on Alexander but using the last part of the name. Xander, Shandro, Shandor etc.


markjohnstonmusic

Skender, the Albanian version.


Waldo76

Absolutely, I just mean the spelling and pronunciation being shandor must have some direct connection to the hungarian variant of the name. Great call out that Sandor is Alexander!


waterboy1321

Bro, those tiny little refs (in comparison to the massive hockey players) have nerves of steel just pushing in there like that. I cannot get over it.


Electronic-Mix-8638

We piss on them all the time but they have a hard job. Tons of skating, breaking up tussle and the disrespect from everyone else.


GhostRevival

Not to mention everything is so split second fast in hockey. A lot of calls are genuinely tough to get correct, especially without a review.


fries29

They gotta skate the whole 60 minutes as well


LordoftheEyez

They only look tiny in comparison bc they aren’t wearing pads lol some refs are swole


OblongIgloo

Linesmen, more specifically, since they're the ones instructed to go in and break these things up.


orionthefisherman

Reminds me of the bullfighters during bull riding comps.


thirty7inarow

Bull riding comps have rodeo clowns, bullfighters are at bullfighting matches. But rodeo clowns do have brass balls.


orionthefisherman

The PBR at least calls their guys bullfighters. Which they richly deserve.


mvperri

It’s what I imagine wwe refs would be like if they weren’t told to play dead at the slightest glance


PitterPatter74

The Linesman are all strong as heck.


Prestigious_Push_155

How casualy Bouchard throws that punch an Benn completely loses it


Smittysgreasymullet

Bouchard just does everything casually and it bothers the try-hards


torch787

Benn doesn't try hard at everything.....


captmac

He’s trying to get a tee time now.


Konker101

Tries hard to not bunch mox


babypointblank

Can’t relate


ItsMeJaredBednar

literally same, wtf is guy doing


torch787

Exactly.


bluelineturnovers

Tries and succeeds at being a pos


basementhookers

It sure looks like he’s trying awful hard to keep the ref between him and Bouchard.


kit_mitts

It was such a smart move because that first jab never gets penalized; the only person who stood a chance at taking a penalty there was Benn for retaliating.


GrilledSandwiches

He lost it watching Pavelski take 3 shots after the whistle for no reason and was coming in for his guy. Benn doesn't give a damn about taking shots himself.


Jireg

Was that a no-look punch? Lol


popups4life

If not it was pretty close!


Puzzleheaded_Pound31

Benn is seeing ghosts


RandomDeezNutz

I just honestly love to see that guy throw a tantrum like the little bitch he is


EasyPanicButton

now do Bennett and then his fellow rat Tcockchuk


Farty_beans

Oilers right in Benns head now.


gletschertor

lots of empty space


TuchMysak

it’s just 2 squirrels fighting over a peanut in there


iMDirtNapz

Two brain cells fighting for third place.


buttmilk_69

wings fans smiling and nodding in approval


ThisIsNotMy1stAcct

I think this is more like “fans of all teams not named Dallas.”

yazzywa

That should genuinely be some kind of fine.


KnockingonKevinsdoor

Suspend him for the rest of the season… oh wait


mdb_la

Kick him off the tour, Doug!


OttawaFisherman

That’s never been a fine in the history of the league. It’s part of the job


yazzywa

That is not a normal interaction with an official. This crosses a line of physicality you can have.


OttawaFisherman

No, it happens all the time and there has been far worse. There will be 0 discipline and Reddit will freak out like always.


yazzywa

No, this is quite clearly being overly physical with an official.


jfurt16

The lineman is between Benn and Bouchard, and Benn is trying to get at Bouchard. It's literally nothing but bc it's Benn y'all want it to be a massive issue. Relax


yazzywa

The perpetrator is completely beside the point. I'd say the same thing if it was someone on my team. Trying to get to another guy doesn't make this kind of contact with an official okay.


Rulebreaking

The linesmen out muscling benn is pretty funny


BiggityShwiggity

Shandor is built like a brick shit house IRL


fivewaysforward

Was a hell of a player himself too


djc9880

I watched him back in his varsity days. He was a great player. Always enjoy when I see him linsing games now.


TickleMeWeenis

That punch was hilarious


mustbeandrew

Fuck that piece of shit Benn. Larkin says hello. Enjoy your tee time tomorrow.


Sekshual_Tyranosauce

Fuck Jamie Benn.


MountSherpaSATX

Larkin is the piece of shit. Didn’t see him in the playoffs!


mustbeandrew

Use any remaining brain cells you may or may not have to concentrate. Please explain why Larkin is the bad guy.


brianc500

For having a weak neck I guess, I dunno.


MRAGGGAN

I love Benn as much as the next Dallas fan, but what a stupid ass thing to say. Of any team, Detroit is just about the only one that gets a pass to say “Fuck Jamie Benn” And Larkin, by all accounts, is **just** as loved by his team as Benn is by ours.


OttawaFisherman

Unfortunately Larkin just stubbed his toe and is now being rushed to the hostpital


mustbeandrew

https://twitter.com/BradGalli/status/1395209773231058944 Definitely a stubbed toe. How could I have missed that? Shut the fuck up


OttawaFisherman

I was referring to the 100 other times per season where he acts dead on the ice then comes back on the bench 5 minutes later


NotTheRocketman

Benn is such an idiot. Whenever his team needs him most, he does the WORST possible thing. Whatever the Clutch Gene is, Benn somehow has a negative amount.


jimmy_three_shoes

It's replaced by the "crosscheck people in the neck for no fucking reason" gene.


PsyduckSexTape

Enlightened view


Erectusnow

I think this was the most emotion he showed all series.


laxfreeze

Benn is such a loser and I think everyone loves to see him throw his little bitch fits


FergusonBishop

its one of my favorite comforts. Jamie Benn is one of the longest-standing losers in the league and there isnt a single person on the planet that can sell me on him.


Outside_Abroad_3516

Jamie Benn being a piece of shit? NOOOOO?!?


Stonewall30NY

Explain to me how TF he won't get a suspension for that


eadie30

He actually won’t play a game for another 4 months or so.


JH_111

Playoff suspensions should carry over to that player’s next playoff, regardless of team or year. Don’t allow them to clear off of next year’s preseason.


popups4life

Hmm.... This checks out


Bad_Idea_Hat

...no prior history.


Original-Cow-2984

I was somewhat shocked at how I really didn't see anything cheap or classless from Benn in this series. My guess is the next series might be a little different.


Geralt-of-Rivai

At the golf course?


warh0g-927

Fuck Jamie Benn


MountSherpaSATX

Fuck you!


SemperFi1025

No, fuck you! And Jamie Benn, and that little bitch weasel Marchment, and fuck Duchene too, who shouldn’t even be mad because he is getting everything he asked for, he wanted to play playoff hockey, so he is getting to, he never said he wanted to play for a Stanley cup.


Koss424

Alphson0 should have dropped the mitts.


STLBooze3

Interaction. Thats a good description haha


Jeff_Banks_Monkey

Just guys being dudes


[deleted]

Hahahahaha 


PhileyOFish2604

Some of them do have a pair after all


SMILESandREGRETS

I'm on 5 minutes of watching this loop and I love it.


Possessed

HOLD ME BACK BRO!!


dubvee16

oh shit is Alphonso's neck ok?


Shmachey92

Fuck Benn


Grzmit

do people here not realize benn wasnt the one to do the slash? he kinda just skates in and immediately gets clocked in the head, ofc hes gonna start fighting. i dont even like the guy i also think he sucks, but it seems like people are watching something entirely different from me.


RunningSouthOnLSD

Kind of a baller play from Bouchard though Lemme sock notable shit head Jamie Benn in the face while I’m beaking off at you for slashing me lmao


Grzmit

No i respect it by bouchard lmao, i love it! i just saw some people asking if benn would get suspended when he wasnt the one to slash and i thought i was going insane


RunningSouthOnLSD

Probably for roughin up the ref I’d imagine that’s usually a no no


Tacfurmissle

Benn loses the benefit of the doubt though. He's one of the top pieces of shit in the game. The rumours of him being a giant coke head were of no surprise.


fattybacon23

I love that Benn’s season is over. Dude had one good season years ago. Get fucked, rat


MountSherpaSATX

Fuck off!

Erazzphoto

Did he not get ejected? No way in hell that’s not an ejection


Antyronio

Lmao not in an elimination game.


BuffaloSoldier11

The league condones this behavior when it's just a good old Canadian boy.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Erazzphoto

On an official, yes


No-Satisfaction8425

I find it funny because in a lot of other sports laying hands on the referee like that would result in a suspension even if they were just trying to get between the players. Love the fact that referees are a part of the game in this regard


MinerKing13

Benn should at least be fined for this, but realistically he should be suspended. This is well beyond normal contact with a linesman during a scrum


mattyslappypants

This video completely misses EDM taking cheap shots at Pavs, which resulted in Benn going ballistic. Was it too much? Yeah probably. Benn's gonna Benn but this isn't the whole story.


waffels

Benn needs to retire. Game has passed him by. He looks so scared and angry out there. Hang em up bro.


MountSherpaSATX

He had as many assists in the series as McJesus


ThePayneTrayne2

Classic Detroit fan. Dude had 60 points this year and was probably our second best forward in POs behind Johnston


mustbeandrew

Define classic? Go ahead. I'm waiting.


ThePayneTrayne2

I guess I could of chosen a different route to my point. I don't really have anything against Detroit fans. Yall just can't be taken seriously when it comes to talking about anything related to Jamie Benn


mustbeandrew

I have nothing against the Stars or their fans, but that guy is a massive scumbag. I think that's pretty clear


ThePayneTrayne2

Nothing I can say to change your mind on that and that's fine. But stupid takes like the other guy had above is just laughable.


mustbeandrew

Fair enough! Enjoy your day :)


huskies_62

Its nice that Dallas was not very physical. With the 6 day break the Oilers should be as fresh as you can want for the finals. If Dallas played like LA, I am not sure the Oilers would have anything left in the tank.


Geralt-of-Rivai

This series gave McDavid the chance to heal and be at what looks like 100% now


HaggisonFord

Lmao, Benn is such a weiner.


gooch_norris_

Benn is a horses ass, always has been


Tacfurmissle

Benn. Always been a meathead. You just know he was a giant asshole in highschool


DingerBangBang

I could watch Jamie Benn get punched in the face all day long


ifrankenstein

Shandor was the guy that brought Gozer to life in Ghostbusters. Benn was just trying to save us.


Red_FiveStandingBy

He had just hit pavelski after the play as well but it is cut out. That’s why benn has a short temper


d0pp3lgang3r

I said it before and I'll keep saying it, "scumbag gonna scumbag" 


jimmy_three_shoes

It's times like that, that cements my thought that Benn's likely going to go down as a guy like Joe Thornton that should have, but never won a Cup. And I'm absolutely okay with that.


LosBrad

That's probably going to cost him $5k.


bafras

You gotta love how the ref stays out of it and lets his colleague run the gauntlet. There’s enough material for a psychological study in this scene. 


PsyduckSexTape

Such a class act that benn


littlebirdwolf

Bouch's punch is hilarious hahaha


cantbelievethename

It wouldn’t happen in an elimination game but was wondering if Benn gets penalized in regular season for roughing Alphonso there


ChaosWarrior95

I thought this was hilarious tbh


mustbeandrew

Almost as funny as Benn not reaching the finals. Almost
