    Latest NHL Gambling Scandal....LOL

    No one ever accused hockey players of being smart. Wonder how much in fines this $5 bet is going to cost him.

    Passing it through the glass. Really! And what, Turco had some cash stuffed into his hockey uniform. How the fuk was he paying this dude if he lost?


    Hahaha free rolling the hometown crowd as he sneaks off on the team bus after the game.

    Makes me sad to hear a player can't gamble with fans during the game, maybe the fans can try it with the refs next time.

    apparently the fan gave him a 5 that said "Habs Rule" on it. Turco crossed it out and wrote "Turco Rules" on it and gave it back.

    you guys are thinking into it way too much. He didnt actually make a bet nor hand him large amounts of money apparently. It was all in fun for the fans, thats just how turco is.

    my guess is that the fan said "hey I bet you 5 bucks the Hawks dont score" and Turco probably replied "Yeah, Sure" jokingly.

    exactly then when Turco got the $5 bill it said Habs rule on it. So Turco then crossed out Habs rule and put Turco. So it now reads Turco rules...that's all that happened. The media hyped this up just to get ratings/money and whatever else those sick twisted fukks do.

    It will die out within a week, the NHL won't take action. Don't expect players to engage in the fans during game time anymore that's for sure.

    Wow, just wow. What is he even doing talking to the fans and not focusing on the game, let alone gambling with one of them. Too crazy.

    Puckhead,

    You trying to mimic me? What's with the avatar? Stay cool, but don't try to be a copycat.

    Anyways, the NHL WILL take action by telling Turco and other players not to be engagng in this sort of unprofessional behaviour.

    Your Pal,

    Right that's NOT taking action. That's them talking to the players. Taking action, is a fine, suspension, or worse removal of the NHL.

    Now that I can understand happening. But the Canadians will never charge hockey players for something like this

    Conducting a phone hearing/meeting and verbally reprimanding a player is still taking action Header.

    PuckHead,

    You need to get yourself a new avatar. Copying a posters avatar like mine is not your typical "positive" forum etiquette.
