[Three On Zero]

I’d say 50% dirty and 50% Cagguila scrambling to make a hit after he was getting beat.

 

[Obvious Fabertism]

This 3rd period is going to be feisty, glad Kaprizov was back on the ice, lucky it was just a stinger.

 

[Tobias Kahun]

The rule is clear. Hits to the knee are illegal. Caguilla went to throw a body check, then clearly hit Kaprizov on the knee. That should have been a double minor.

I think your interpretation of the rule is clear as mud.

 

[logan5]

Pretty sure incidental knee on knee calls aren't a penalty. It sucks, but if Caligula went down on the play I wouldn't call Kaprizov

That's clearly not incidental. Caguilla hit the breaks in order to initiate a hit. He then made contact with Kaprizov's knee.

Edmonton doesn’t want to play a feisty game, they usually end up taking the brunt of it and or start taking bad penalties

Are you saying Caguilla wsan't trying to throw a hit on Kaprizov?

Watching that replay, wondering if he'll have a helluva charlie horse. But man, his knee does bend in a way that I don't think knees are supposed to. Hope it is mild and he can keep playing. Him being at the top of the scoring race is certainly fun.

 

[Tobias Kahun]

He was, and he didnt have his knee out, and wasnt going knee on knee, Kaprizov shifting his body is what caused it.

Nothing on this play was against the rules, it was an unfortunate play.

Good to see Kaprizov is back.

 

[Pablo El Perro]

That's clearly not incidental. Caguilla hit the breaks in order to initiate a hit. He then made contact with Kaprizov's knee.

Kaprizov's knee was moving forward as well. I don't see any intent.

Solid shift by Mrazak.

Panthers lose in Chicago for the 3rd consecutive year.

Pretty crazy considering how bad the Hawks have been.

In case anyone is wondering-

Rule 50 - Kneeing 50.1 Kneeing - Kneeing is the act of a player leading with his knee and in some cases extending his leg outwards to make contact with his opponent.

50.2 Minor Penalty - The Referee, at his discretion, may assess a minor penalty, based on the severity of the infraction, to a player guilty of kneeing an opponent.

50.3 Major Penalty - The Referee, at his discretion, may assess a major penalty, based on the severity of the infraction, to a player guilty of kneeing an opponent (see 50.5). 50.4 Match Penalty – The Referee, at his discretion, may assess a match penalty if, in his judgment, the player attempted to or deliberately injured his opponent by kneeing. 50.5 Game Misconduct Penalty - When a player has been assessed a major penalty for kneeing he shall also be assessed a Game Misconduct.

Notice all the penalties say at the ref's discretion.

Doesn't have to be intent. If you try and throw a hit, or make a move to impede a player that is breezing by you, which Kaprizov was, and you make contact with the knee, that is a penalty.

 

[Pablo El Perro]

Verhaeghe? GG Hawks.

 

[Boss Man Hughes]

That hit in kaprizov was not intentional nor a dirty knee. My word not every play that ends in, thankfully seems minor injury here, is dirty

Dirty is irrelevant. If he stuck out his leg it's a penalty. If he didn't move and they collided it isn't.

Just watched the end of it. This is a funny old league.

Hawks win. Hawks win. Bedard does nothing.

 

[2014nyr]

anyone suggesting the play on kaprizov was even remotely dirty should lose their speaking privileges until they attend some kind of tutorial on the game

Breezing by is a stretch

Of course. The rule book is made to allow the officials to benefit the favored teams.

 

[Lunatik]

Well that was an unfortunate goalie interference. But Coleman did trip Shesty with his entire body

 

[SeanMoneyHands]

Lol Skinner's rebound control

 

[Chainshot]

Skinner brain dead to double on the wall there.

Oilers could miss the play-offs. Way too inconsistent.

It's early. They were doubtful by this time last year.
