Cody Eakin hit on Lundqvist (UPD: Suspended 4 games)

[Rebels57]

I'm sure Mclrath would have accomplished alot with Eakin's stupid ass being thrown out of the game right?

You take it out on one of his teammates to send him a message.

Anyone found a longer video of this?

Voracek isnt a "fighter" either. Hes 3rd in NHL scoring. Yet last night he dropped them with Landeskog for a big open ice hit on Raffl.

This is Hockey. Team is family and family needs to be protected and fought for sometimes. No excuse to not maul Eakin there.

Nash went after him but refs weren't having it.

Turris tried to fight (technically did fight) Vlasic last night after he speared Karlsson.

I agree, you have to do it.

 

[JT Kreider]

Fighter or not, beat the hell out of him. I would expect a fight if that happened against the Blues of Hunt, Shattenkirk, Fabbri, Lehtera, and Tarasenko was one the ice. Doesn't matter.

Jumbo Joe was proven right after all these years:

Rangers are a soft team.

 

[Finesse]

There's a little bit more video in this.

 

[Rebels57]

Nash went after him but refs weren't having it.

Then he didnt try hard enough

Also, why do refs protect players after they throw cheap shots?

 

[Church Hill]

Lundqvist is back

 

[SladeWilson23]

Agreed with everyone else. Someone on the Rangers should have jumped Eakin.

 

[Raccoon Jesus]

Holy **** man what was that for?

 

[SI90]

Hate the rangers but you don't do that. Wtf was he thinking? I hope one of the rags players beat his ass

 

[Kale Hulls]

dirty as hell

 

[Rebels57]

Agreed with everyone else. Someone on the Rangers should have jumped Eakin.

He shouldnt have made it 20 feet away from the incident.

 

[Rebels57]

Nope. He walked away unscathed.

 

[Canada4Gold]

Damn that's a suspension if he did that to a skater, doing it to a goalie makes it so much worse.

At least 5 I would think

10-20 games, intent to injure.

 

[GordieHoweHatTrick]

Whats the rule for goalies in the between those two lines behind their net? Are they still protected from being touched when they're playing a puck behind there?

 

[Willy Stylez]

What the **** is Eakin thinking? Wow.

 

[Paris in Flames]

Don't care if you have a fighter on the ice or not. All 5 of you can take him.

 

[SI90]

Nope. He walked away unscathed.

Goalie and franshise player takes a dirty cheap shot like that and all 5 guys on the ice should be going for The guys head.

5 skaters vs 4 officials. Someone will get through

 

[M2Beezy]

Jesus Christ. 3 games at least.

Are you out of your mind how is it 3 games???

That piece of garbage targeted Lundquists head with a TON of speed went right for the head and Lundquist like him or not is a STAR goalie he cant be just LEVELED like that. This is sick. This is the kinda crap the league MUST make an example of. Less than 10 games is a INJUSTICE

 

[MrClutch86]

Embarrassing for the Rangers not to go after him immediately

 

[Minnesota]

Don't care if you have a fighter on the ice or not. All 5 of you can take him.

If that happened against Dubnyk, Chris Stewart would have jumped off the Wild bench.

 

[Aladyyn]

Obviously biased, but that seemed far worse than Lucic on Miller

As a Sabers fan, I agree completely

 

[M2Beezy]

10-20 games, intent to injure.

Your right. I just said only 10 games but with that intent could be up to 20. Just THAT bad
