Is Leon Draisaitl a dirty player ?

[ViD]

What’s up with all these lower body shots ?

 

[MessierII]

A little yeah

 

[Bear of Bad News]

"All these" in the video means "three incidents between 2017 and now"?

 

[Yukon Cornelius Habs]

Every hockey player in this day and age is.

I find he has a really bad attitude and gets frustrated very easy. You can see it on his face most of the time. I think that is why he takes those cheap shots at other players.

 

[Scrantonicity 2]

He does have a tendency to get pissy.

He also kicked a HHOF journalist right in the nuts recently

 

[Neil Racki]

Yes.

Steal puck from him? Cup shot.
Let him have puck? Also cup shot.

As an Oilers fan who loves the player, I hate seeing Leon do stuff like this when he gets frustrated. I can understand jabbing an elbow into someone's ribs. Heck, even boarding somebody but spearing someone in the testis is such a cheap gutless move. Guys should automatically get a 5 minute major and a 1 game suspension for that. He keeps doing this, eventually he's going to get knocked out one day.

 

[Filthy Dangles]

We need a new one

 

[guzzy]

Yes. He pulls moves like these and will never back it up. has the guy ever dropped the gloves?

 

[KeithIsActuallyBad]

He's filthy, pissy, and doesn't take any shit.

How many other players have 3 nut shots since 2017 ?

 

[CornKicker]

in a league where the referees do not protect the star players from abuse i have zero problem with anything Leon does. you have to know if you come at him he will 100% come back and thats just how it is.

Does he even have one fight in the NHL ?

 

[Oleksiak]

Been a problem for his whole career. Absolutely gutless hockey player and just as classless off the ice. Great leadership there Edmonton.

 

[MetalheadPenguinsFan]

They should play “Dance Of The Sugarplum Fairy” from The Nutcracker whenever he’s on the ice.

 

[NotAVacuumSalesman]

It's hockey, "these" things happen from time to time.

Is it shocking? Not really.

Players get away with crazier things back in the day.

I was asking a clarifying question, not a value judgment. To your question, I have no idea but I'd be surprised if there weren't others.

 

[Alex12]

One of the sneakiest/dirty players to play the game. The amount of stuff he gets away with that is “unseen” is unbelievable. Overrated player to be honest.

4. I remember a second one in 2017 as well but I don't care enough to comb through pages of results. Bottom line is that he needs to start playing like a real man even of he isn't one.

 

[MetalheadPenguinsFan]

Hockeyfights.com says nope

Gonna need a source on this bold claim, chief. Was he the one that exposed himself in Arizona? I forget...

 

[txpd]

I never knew that Leon was a bag banger. I missed that last night. So, the Capitals knocked the crap out of the Oilers legal and all Drai has for them is to poke a kid in the nuts? Big man.

 

[AdvancedPressure]

Nah, not really. He plays hard but I've never really seen him cross the line or anything like that.
