That is some bush league level play by Pietrangelo should be a 3 or 4 gamer in the playoffs

I'm sure from his POV, that's just a 'receipt' for when Kane sprinted 60 feet to cross-check him in the throat for nothing more than a minor.

That slash by Pie is goofy. It reminds me of the way after the play cheap shot by Makar in the 1st round on McCaan. Both terrible plays by guys that don't have a rep for being dirty.

Not a bad point.

Peter didn't get the memo that you're supposed to slash them in the calves lol

Alex Pietrangelo will have a hearing with the NHL Department of Player Safety on Thursday.
The following grounds are being considered for supplemental discipline: slashing.

However, the Department of Player Safety retains the right to make adjustments to the infraction upon review.

***

The ref issued major penalty and a game misconduct, but not a match penalty for attempt to injure...

Just saw the Pietrangelo slash. I hate Draisaitl as much as the next guy but what the hell, that’s a blatant attempt to injure, he didn’t even try to disguise it, and he should be suspended. That doesn’t have any place in the game but knowing George Parros it’s gonna just be a fine.

Makar play has plausible deniability as the puck was "lost" and you could see him moving his head around trying to locate where the puck is and thought the puck might still be in play near McCann and tried to lay the body.

Peterangelo play is different as the puck is gone for a long time and the play he's making can in no way be construed as making a hockey play. That looks like a frustrated player, taking out his frustration. I expect a suspension for him, regardless of prior history.

Yes, clear intent to injure one of the star players. It's terrible to do that to any player, but he is clearly trying to take out their main threat.

Hey, Bryan pass me another beer, hey Andrew quit looking at my cards……

Hey Sip, get some more chip dip .........................

I guess I do not fully understand this rule. Why would Reaves not have been suspended for that fight against Lowry in the last game against the Wild?

 

[Duke749]

I’m a bit surprised. Also don’t understand the fine. If that’s the precedent then a lot of other coaches should be fined. Basically every coach that has sent out Reaves late in games.

 

[Robert Marvin]

This is what happens when you let people who haven't played the game make the rules.

 

[SLAYER]

This is what happens when you let people who haven't played the game make the rules.

I mean, George Parros is the head of NHL Player Safety? He didn't "make the rules" but he is in charge of enforcing them, and does so arbitrarily. Also fairly sure he was a hockey player

 

[roccerfeller]

No nurse might make them better?

 

[RabidOne]

So why was Woodcroft fined? What did he say?

 

[None]

So why was Woodcroft fined? What did he say?

Automatic for the player taking the instigator in the last 5 minutes. The idea behind the automatic 1 game suspension + coach fine is that the coach sent the player over the boards to beat the shit out of an unwilling opponent.

 

[SUX2BU]

Tkachuk going after Marner at the end of the game is soooo Tkachuk . Maybe next he'll fight his mom . I hate Toronto but come on Tkachuk .

I didn’t mind that …..

Different rules for different teams.

 

[Gabe Kupari]

I didn't either honestly. If anything Matt might have given the Leafs some incentive now to show up for game 5

Reaves was not assessed an instigator in that fight.

Yep, finally found that somewhere.

 

[razorsedge]

I didn't see the game, only highlights. But it looks like Pietrangelo's slash was in retaliation for Kane's hit from behind on him. "F*** around, and find out."

 

[surixon]

Only one game, what a joke

The governors make the rules, bunch of suits like Chipman
