4 games is “a lot” to the DOPS. It’ll take someone dying or getting paralyzed before major changes come through.
Connelly smoked Kero there. That was incredibly stupid, dangerous, and if it wasn’t intentional it was at the very least reckless.
I thought it would be 6 games. It was a reckless hit but I don't think Connelly was intending the outcome like other cheap hits.
The puck was coming along the boards towards Kero. The game happens fast people .. sheesh.
There was clearly not an intention to hurt Kero from Connolly.
Do you ever have anything positive to add to this forum?Can you explain the hit? The puck was not with him neither was it being passed to him, I don’t care how fast the game is going how does that even make sense for him to hit kero? For anyone who has played any hockey before that hit made absolutely zero sense. You are right tho I dont think he was trying to injure him he is just a very dumb player.

The pass was going in Kero's direction, Connolly made a mistake and he will pay for it.
I look at as a guy who is trying very hard to stay in this league and thinking that adding some physicality to his game might help to accomplish that. His reaction made it obvious that he knew immediately that he had gone over the line... and his concern for Kero was genuine. Time to move on.
pass? Did you even see the play? The guy turned around and rung the puck off the wall and out of the zone. The puck never even came close to touching Kero, he never even made a play on the puck. Since the hawks are too dumb to get him out of the league, the nhl should. There’s no place in professional sports for plays like that
The league just qas okay with multiple hits like this from Trouba, exact same results but the puck going to the boards vs passed into a skaters feet makes somehow one hit perfectly fine and another bad is ridiculouspass?

FFS .... he's not a goon. You're overreacting big time.

This should be punished but so should all hits right to the head like that. It's baffling how many are more bothered it was interference than a headshot.
