GDT: GAME 52: BLUES @ HABS | Chadkovsky's World | Sun. Feb. 11, 2024, 1PM -- TSN2, RDS

[Redux91]

Shouldn't be a penalty IMO. Harris went down

He went down himself yeah

Still didn't have to check his head against the boards in a vulnerable position

Even if the concussion is from his head hitting the ice after the fact
Big reason why is the unnecessary hit

So yes Penalty

 

[PavelBrendl]

Don't think Blais deserved that. It was just an awkward play. Don't think he had time to react to Harris losing his footing. Hope Harris is alright though.

 

[Gravity]

Blais seems to have rocks for brains.

 

[Fatbiggie]

Hard to watch Harris there, concussions are no joke. Hope he will be ok

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Harris didn't have the puck, and Blais did hit him at speed right up against the boards. I'm ok with that call.

 

[admiralcadillac]

Weaaaak asssss callllll

Harris is too soft and we get a 5 min PP game on boys

Really piss poor take no need to hit harris while he’s in that position

 

[Whitesnake]

The game isn't played on slowmotion people come on....there's no way Blais could have stopped his motion.

 

[Tyson]

Blais family in attendance gotta be bummed

 

[Boss Man Hughes]

Harris didn't have the puck, and Blais did hit him at speed right up against the boards. I'm ok with that call.

If he hit him he barely touched him. I think he was trying to avoid the hit.

 

[The Great Weal]

Newhook has been awesome

 

[Maliki2]

Too much passing! Shoot the damn thing!

 

[The Real Timo]

That's mostly a game management penalty.

If you leave Blais in the game, most chances the crowd gets into it and the game spirals out of control.

Who is going to go after him? Ylonen? Anderson?

 

[Kobe Armstrong]

Really piss poor take no need to hit harris while he’s in that position

He wasn't going to hit Harris if he didn't fall over

 

[Gravity]

Newhook is not that guy.

 

[Canadienna]

Jesus that's a nasty hit. Full intentional.

And of course no Xhekaj. Honestly I'm sick of the high road I hope somebody crushes Thomas or Kyrou. f*** em.

 

[EveryDay]

Newhook awful pass....

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Caufield should have shot.

 

[Junohockeyfan]

He went down himself yeah

So yes Penalty

Play was so quick. Blais wasn't trying to hit him in the head.

 

[Redux91]

That PP is moving the puck

But they gotta learn when you get to pass 4 or 5... SHOOT

 

[teamfirst]

Blais didn't have to finish that hit

Exacly, he saw him going down, well deserve penalty

 

[Hope Of Glory]

I thought Harris falling would have made it a 2 minutes penalty.

But Harris didn't have the puck and his back was facing Blais the whole way and Blais still hit him.

Yes, Harris was falling but Blais hit him in the numbers long (ish) after the puck was gone.

 

[admiralcadillac]

He wasn't going to hit Harris if he didn't fall over

Well he chose to hit him when he did

 

[Linkens Mastery]

I hope Harris is healthy and back for you guys soon. That was scary.

 

[Junohockeyfan]

I hope Harris is healthy and back for you guys soon. That was scary.

I hope the Habs don't score. That should not have been a penalty.

 

[NobleSix]

Most of the 2nd PP wave barely belongs in the NHL let alone on the PP. Ugly.
