John Tavares injury

[TheNumber4]

You just did it again.

Noted that it was possibility and noted that no one will ever truly know Perry’s intent.

 

[Artorius Horus T]

I hope John is feeling relatively well and can come back from the injury
Saw that live from tv...really was disturbing injury.

Anybody who has ever skated before in their lives can pretty much determine what happened on that play.

Key point, the medical staff was not trying to get him to sit up. He was actively trying to sit up on his own but was too confused to stay down and cooperate with the medical staff, so they did the best they could to stabilize his neck as he tried to get up. Great job by the Leafs medical staff in what is a very challenging situation when an athlete is confused and not cooperating after an injury like this.

Accidentally hit by Perry's knee. Ouch.

Get well soon.

It's Corey Perry don't be so sure it was an accident Corey Perry doesn't get the benefit of the doubt because he's Corey Perry

Some things are bigger than sports. Get well soon John.

 

[RMimagery]

Just saw and that was brutal. Really hope JT will recover and be ok.

Foligno is a punk and he does have a history (suspension in 2019). Of course he starts a fight over accident.
Never liked him.

Don’t know how you can dislike any of the Foligno family. Great people and honest players. Furthest thing from a punk.

I know Perry is a dirtbag but did you guys not see how fast everything happened? There’s no way that was any way close to intentional

 

[kihei]

I don't know. Perry and Foligno seemed to have a bit of a conversation. Maybe the fight was an attempt by both of them to turn the page, rather than prolong payback throughout the series. Perry didn't even fight back--he did nothing intentional in this case but he knows his own reputation and the consequences even accidents have because of his past sins, so he played his part, accepted the lumps and now we hopefully can all move on.

The Tavares signing keeps on giving.

Now that the Leafs lost Tavares, they are screwed, not having 2nd line center kinda does that,
having 2 x 1st line centers wasn't such a good plan after all.
Leafs HAD, 2nd line center(s), but because of du(m)bas(s) blowing up the entire record braking roster
you get this, i feel for you Leafs fans, you deserve better.

Not fun when you have a kid, a business lawyer, as your GM, who has no idea what ice hockey really is,
wanna be GM, nothing more, who brought his best friend to coach his team..

Get the f*** out of here man

Cool story, bro

 

[Zobitembois]

The way Tavares falls back when he's on his knees is gut-wrenching. Hope he recovers and can play hockey again. Scary s**t.


Edit : And Foligno is a total idiot

Perry did everything right according to hockey "code", and I really hate that guy. Foligno felt he had to fight him even though it was obviously an accident. Perry accepted that he needed to "answer the bell" and didn't even fight back. It was honestly pretty embarrassing.

 

[toewsintangibles]

Perry left his feet for the hit

 

[ovikovy817]

JT could be done for next season too.

Foligno fight with Perry this is why I call NHL players "Pavlov's dogs"

95%+ fans know Perry's intent, he didn't intend for that to happen. First of all there is no way he could have avoided it in less than half a second. Second of all people have emotional reactions to situations that they can't control unless they are sociopaths, his reaction seemed pretty genuine to me and pretty much everyone else.

Real classy george.....

Seriously?
He was trying to avoid contact.
Would you be happier if he drove right into Tavares but "stayed on his feet"?
Yikes

 

[mightyquack]

Imagine anyone actually blaming Perry for this at all

 

[ChrisKuuuunitz]

I know Perry is a dirtbag but did you guys not see how fast everything happened? There’s no way that was any way close to intentional

completely agree, he went down so fast right in front of him, he was just trying to bring his knee up to try and avoid the collision

not intentional at all

 

[Grigowski]

Please stop with that nonsense.

Perry has a history, Perry has a reputation, yeah, we all know it.

But this was 100 % accidentaly.
