What is with this from Roope Hintz? Nurse barley hit him with the stick? Is this a dive? Is he trying to get a 5 min PP?
I'm sure he will be back next game flying around, if not how TF do you get hurt that bad on a routine play like this?

Maybe a slight embellishment, but getting slashed on the laces can hurt like a motherf***er.
That's what it looks like to me, getting hit on the laces. While the tongue of a skate has a little padding, that's largely for the comfort of one's foot, rather than protective in any way.
It can hurt like heck to take even a light tap there if you get hit in the wrong spot.
It was on Nurse's backhand too, and this is right after Hintz two hand cross checked him in the back of neck, which is a far more dangerous play and warrants a game in my opinion.
Mikey Madison should be glad Hintz didn’t pull this stunt last year or she would have lost out on the Best Actress Oscar for sure.

"Does anyone in this room think that if Connor McDavid gets carried off the ice like that, that it's not a 5 minute major?" -DeBoer
I'll hold my judgement to see of he misses a game
If he does, the reaction makes sense
If he goes from limping in a boot to playing in like a 40 hour window, shame on the stars

“Carried off” like this was the intro to M.A.S.H. or something lmao. DeBoer couldn’t help but one up his own guy in the drama mama department.

Looks like it was his upper back. I didn't realize Nurse was retaliating when I watched the game live.

Yeah but if the NHL punishes Nurse they can finally say they are protecting their Stars

He left the game on a boot, but sure let’s call it embellishment

I have a reasonably high tolerance for pain, but I've suffered a metatarsal injury before and the pain was excruciating on a level I can hardly describe. Actual 10/10 on the pain scale. Couldn't even think.

Come wit it now!
Players block 90 mph slap shots with their feet and can keep playing or at a minimum stand up and skate to the bench.
If Hintz plays tomorrow then it tells you he's got the Mike Ribeiro in him.

I take it OP, has never been slashed on the top of the laces.
Giordano took McDavid out and didn't even get a penalty.
Do people actually think the player who is 137th in the league at drawing penalties gets preferential treatment?
Refs go out of their way to make sure they NEVER give McDavid preferential treatment of any kind. Retired NHL Ref Tim Peel explains why McDavid rarely draws penalties.

So no. McDavid getting carried off in a stretcher would not result in a 5mins major.
This nonsense is only considered a narrative if you don't watch games and ignore all evidence.

There was 16 minutes left in the game, if he was doing a Ribeiro, he would have been laughing on the bench after this and then hopping on the ice on the next shift.
Some pretty delusional comments here from some people.

Youre right, Deboer should watch the games before he opens his mouth.Giordano took McDavid out and didn't even get a penalty.

Or maybe it’s fans on message matching the energy of the trolls and hate comments they read from other fan bases.

People actually think he missed most of the third period because he was faking it?
