Kent Posted March 31, 2019 Share Posted March 31, 2019 Yeah, taking his legs out would have shown him... I mean your team would play short handed for 82 minutes and it would all but seal the loss early on, but I am sure he would learn his lesson. jpg75 and RS 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obinna Posted April 1, 2019 Share Posted April 1, 2019 Anyone want to predict how MAK will do for points this season? I'm going to say he reaches double digits in combined points. Maybe 3 goals, 7 assists. So far I believe he has 1G 2A through 5 games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red Card + Penalty Kick vs Sure goal Yeah, late in the game where the goal loses you point(s) is a totally different story. But it's still about stopping the goal and giving your keeper a chance. Not about some macho BS about being disrespected by how the other team is scoring on you. If you don't like it, don't let them walk in like that.

If he pissed someone off enough to take him out I wouldn't feel sorry for him but at the same time you don't really solve a situation of doing something unsportsmanlike by doing something even more unsportsmanlike.

Pretty sure the intent under those circumstances is not really to "solve" anything - at least it usually wasn't in the PEI first division. jpg75 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obinna Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 LAFC are the early shield favorite, of course he is getting shine. That's the way it goes. If the Impact were top of the league destroying teams like DC by 4 goals, you bet fans and pundits alike would have Sam Piette's name on their lips. apbsmith 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's the closest thing to a new Hutchinson as we have imo. That being said from what I've noticed the American MLS analysts don't pay as much attention to the Canadian teams. Especially Montreal and Vancouver. I remember watching the MLS All-Star game and Taylor Twellman basically commented on Piatti like "Wow this guy is so good. Nobody knows about this guy because he plays in Montreal". So even if Montreal was doing well I'm not sure Piette would be getting the same notice.

Obinna Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 Agree with you both. Kaye definitely has a higher ceiling. Just pointing out that Kaye's ganaring attention, in part, because LAFC has had a fantastic start. If he were putting in those performances in Montreal, and Piette was doing what he does in LA, the narritaves would swap as well.

Not only does Kaye have the higher ceiling, I think he's above Piette right now. Don't get me wrong, I love Piette and if my life depended on someone winning a 50-50 ball, I'd choose him over Kaye but in every other aspect, Kaye is a better player.
