If this is true the team should be fined or lose a few of points in the standings.

I know he spouted off but sometimes the truth hurts and is somewhere in the middle.

lose a few points in the standings? real talk?

 

[Jacob]

If they weren't, they should've been (legally).

Also the wording in the article makes it sound like Laine never got hurt, he or the team just got scared?

 

[stevo61]

They did and they did it completely within the rules. Laine crumbled after a few good hits. Not a single hit they gave Laine were even remotely close to being a penalty let alone whatever you are going on about

 

[bleachdrinker]

Jackets are sooo lucky that Xhekaj didn’t find out about this.

 

[majormajor]

Well yeah, they hit him every time they could.

Video with all the hits here.

I'm confused about why this is supposed to be a problem? Montreal fan not aware that hockey players can be targeted for hits? Has it been that long since you've seen the playoffs?

 

[frederixx]

That's just lame. Hockey players aren't the most mature and take everything so personal. On the other side, I don't know what Laine was thinking, it was quite stupid on his part.

Nothing good will come out of this. It's time to move on.

Oh and happy holidays

He was busy trying to avoid fighting Olivier and Voronkov.

Why? What rules were broken?

 

[Paper]

Bro gave them the perfect bulletin board material. Of course they would have be targeting him.

Now it's December so most of the players probably don't care anymore, but still.

 

[SteelCityCannon]

Multiple Habs fans called out Werenski's comments for being soft. Werenski, who played his balls off on the ice, along with the rest of the Jackets. They finished every check.

Which brings us to this thread lol

 

[NyQuil]

I wonder who put the target on Laine?

Oh right, he did.

Hahahahahaha

What is the difference from say targeting a player because of a dirty hit against your team in a previous game. It happens very regularly in hockey.

Chat Shit Get Banged!

 

[HabzSauce]

Don't mind CBJ going after him. I also don't mind Laine running his mouth

This entire situation is really not that serious at all

Nothing dirty or even questionable other then him skating into voronkov without a plan

 

[TheNumber4]

Sure. Why the hell not target a player who’s on a heater and also threw shade at your organization.

The real concern here is that Laine couldn’t handle the heat.

 

[OilersFanatics505]

I… I don’t have words for what I just read…

 

[MetalheadPenguinsFan]

Talk shit get hit.

Ain’t Columbus’s fault that Laine is soft.

 

[stevo61]

Yeah I get that being 6'5" probably let's momentum of a body that big run through a lot of people... That said making 6'5" 227lb Voronkov your target is not wise

 

[NyQuil]

The real question is why he didn't just wait until after the game.

 

[Stelio Kontos]

Good thing MTL isn’t going to be in a playoff series anytime soon. Laine showing how fragile he is

 

[AnInjuredJasonZucker]

I thought he was tired of giving up in December.
