Around the league part 2

[Johnny Utah]

This is why Blake needs to add some grit.

The Oilers have skill size and toughness.

The Kings barely have the first two and def not the third.

I mean that’s partly why LA probably had googly eyes for PLD. He has shown some aggressive behavior and he does step in between guys a lot just with his size deterrent. I fn hate the Oilers. Chippy assholes who complain when they get breathed on. Their home game crowds have bought into that mentality too. So much groaning.

hasn't shown it here

he let laf fight for kaliyev on that awkward hit, i don't remember what game but an opponent was screaming at the ref and he got in between and prevented an unsportsmanlike

i just don't understand what his f***in deal is. did he come to CA and suddenly it's chill vibes only brahh?

I have seen him step into situations and deter it going any further. He actually has done this a few times this year. Its quick but he has done it in scrums.

 

[kingsholygrail]

I'd give PLD a lot more rope if he was just a giant asshole to our opponents.

 

[Omni Owl]

But he's a douche too.

Yea sort of, but that roster is full of so many assholes it makes him seem fine. Other teams need to play him with a lot more physicality. There was a moment last night against Anaheim @ the end of the 2nd where he got leveled and was bitching at the ref for a call.

 

[DoktorJeep]

Blues and Flames have already banked points. Let’s see what the Kraken and Preds do before we drop the puck tonight.

love the camerawork

 

[WHOneedsSOX]

love the camerawork

Is a slap shot empty net goal frowned upon? Why was he so mad?

If the NHL had any balls, they'd suspend Reilly a bunch of games. There is literally zero hockey in that attack. Play is over and dead. It's 100% i'm pissed so i'm going after you....and his head too. It's one thing when a bad hit/attack happens during play, but this is way after the play ended and simply i'm mad.

yeah the slapshot was f***in stupid but i'm not sure at what point we transitioned from surprisedpikachu.jpeg at donald brashear to "yeah he deserved that" for greig

maybe its just the overly vocal leafs fans

5+ games is probably where it will land.....Greig was disrespectful, Reilly reacted like everyone on here wants any King to do....I don't think he intentionally went after the head, I also think that doesn't matter, it's what he got.

 

[bland]

Greig deserved to eat something there.

This is still hockey.

There was nothing hockey about what Reilly did.

 

[Brownie to Pancakes]

Red-ass loser energy from rielly (and his defenders). Reminds me of bumgarner

 

[tny760]

fists, yeah, for sure. not a crosscheck to the head. that's not hockey.

i wouldn't have cared one bit if rielly would've just grabbed him and pummelled him, even if he was unwilling

in-person hearing for this, so the league feels the same

 

[FrozenKing18]

I saw nothing to be angry about there. It was a regular slapper, Grieg didn't celebrate or anything to rub it in. That's just me though.

 

[Rick Knickleback]

A slap shot into an empty net at point blank range? In a rivalry game? FAFO.

The cross check to the head was excessive but Greig should’ve known something was coming after that. Reilly should’ve dropped the gloves instead.

Sure, suspend him 4 games.

But Greig deserved it. Putting any kind of funk on an empty netter should cost you a tooth or two.

 

[Schrute farms]

“Tell those kids to stop making so much noise having fun playing outside - I’m trying to take a nap before my pinochle game!”

 

[kingsfan28]

Some solid trolling here.

Reily is getting suspended 5 games for overreacting. Don't like the goal, fine go check him into the boards or slash him, not go for the head.

 

[BigKing]

Yep. Would love to see a King react like that.

 

[kingsholygrail]

Guy put an exclamation point on an empty netter. Big f***ing deal. I don't even see how it's disrespectful. Should he have skated the puck into the empty net? Stopped at the line and tapped it in? lol He didn't deserve anything.

 

[kovacro]

Kid wanted to make sure. Didn't want to go the Patrik Stefan route.
