How hockey fans say the NHL is biased towards the Leafs is beyond me.

Typical season involves a stupid amount of back-to-backs, Leafs getting suspended left, right and centre, and opponents doing what the f*** they want.

Feet go up after the hit. Definitely did not launch himself.
He didn't leave the ice before contact (by a millisecond) but he still launched himself up. It's the type of action that the NHL would ban if they remotely cared about player safety, but we all know they don't.

DOPS only exists so that hopefully in a decade when someone brings a billion dollar lawsuit against the league for head injury stuff they can try to defend themselves in court.

This wasn’t a hit where the feet leave the ice due to the impact. The replay pretty clearly shows him driving his body upwards into Knies head. The kind of hit the NHL needs to get rid of. Whitecloud could’ve easily rocked knies with a clean hit to the chest, but this wasn’t that.

The NHL not being consistent?

Hope Knies is ok. Need to see more replay of the hit and digest it more to get a better opinion. Bad call on the surface reaction though

Probably would have been better for the VGK if there was a penalty. Game is going to get rough and would expect Whitecloud to have a fight by the end of the night
