John Tavares injury

[dukeofjive]

Wish you a speedy recovery JT, hope your well and will be with your family and loved ones soon, heal up, and cant wait to see you play my habs soon.

Hey look


I get it was an accident, but Montreal came out saying they were going to play us rough all week, they were throwing their body around (it's playoffs I get it) but our captain goes down accidental hit and he goes down in such an awful way.. that shocks the whole bench.

Foligno did the right thing for his role... You came out rough, our captain is now gone... I don't give a f*** if it's accidental or not you gotta answer the bell now.. good on him (also good on Perry) accidental or not it's to send a message... If one of our guys goes down no matter what, you guys are paying the price it's playoffs.

I stand by Foligno on this one.

 

[Puckstuff]

I cheer for Habs, but boy I will pray that Tavares will be ok !

no shit buddy

 

[Picaroon]

Just brutal for Tavares. The play happened fast and I hate to say it, but anything involving Perry makes me wonder if it was accidentally on purpose.

Can we just not with this crap... Every fan of either team and every player on that ice surface is thinking about JT and hoping for all the best. Such an unfortunate incident.

 

[MardyBum]

Although it was 100% an accident, that’s the best way to spark energy back into the team after a very scary and deflating moment.

Yes, moar head trauma!

 

[7even]

Him falling backwards, looks like a death scene from a f***ing Renaissance painting. Brutal.

 

[Metroid]

After the Foligno fight and guys taking runs at Perry now the league is going to have to step in tell the refs to take control. The Leafs are gross in how they're handling this. Baby team with baby players and a baby GM and coach.

Lol dude wtf?

 

[dss97]

Tavaras fell in an awkward position. The fall its self while not dangerous, happens pretty much every game, also didn't give Perry nearly enough time to avoid it. He's definitely not at fault there.

Leafs bench doesn’t think so.

He wouldn’t have to fight next shift otherwise

 

[Coaches Coroner]

Yawn, snowflake.

lol an Iles fan, of a fanbase who cried for over a year because JT left. Sit down stupid.

 

[The90]

Can someone explain why the trainer immediately got Tavares up on his knees? Wouldn't you want him not moving?

This is what I was thinking. What the hell was that? Guys out cold and you roll him over? What a joke.

 

[5 Minute Major]

Still can't believe people don't see that fight as a reset. It has nothing to do with going after Perry and is more about giving each team a reset. How do you just go out and play after seeing that.

It had nothing to do with Perry. LMAO

No, he just accidentally kneed Tavares in the melon and there were then five skaters on the ice and who did they target?

Coincidence, right?

 

[The don godfather]

All I know that was full force on the skull.

 

[Junohockeyfan]

Foligno fighting him is as much to send a message to his teammates as it is to the Habs and Perry

What message?

 

[North Cole]

K wtf is the trainer doing getting him up like that letting him fall backwards. What if his neck was injured.... Hope he was able to breathe okay, always worry when stuff impacts near the throat like that. Thats f***ed up.

 

[bleedgreen]

That’s weak making Perry fight for that. Give us a break Leafs.

Hope JT is ok.

 

[Just Linda]

I really had to question a lot of what Keefe was doing there in coaching his team after that hit. You don't let the young players on the ice after someone gets hurt, you have the veterans take them and simply their game with them. Tell them that someone is hurt, get them to focus back on the basics rather than focusing on the injury. A breakdown happened like 2 minutes later, that's on Keefe imo for not coaching his team through that trial.

 

[leaffaninvancouver]

What message?

Get back in the game.

 

[AvroArrow]

That happened in a split second, I don't know how any human could react quick enough to avoid contact. I'm not sure how to feel right now, I hope Tavares is ok. That looked horrifying.

 

[SamHabsFan]

get well soon JT! kudos to Perry for standing up not even trying to throw punch in that idiotic fight...

 

[DueDiligence]

Just brutal for Tavares. The play happened fast and I hate to say it, but anything involving Perry makes me wonder if it was accidentally on purpose.

Are you friggin serious????

 

[ReginKarlssonLehner]

Stupid to fight over that play. Perry has dirty track record but God knows how bad he must/might have felt after that. And to make him fight directly after was just play stupid.

 

[MeanMugging91]

Hope he's okay thats tough to watch.

 

[MattMartin]

I don't usually say stuff like this but you're an idiot.

It was horrible to watch and I loathe him. Never want to someone get injured like that.

 

[Bozo Nicholson]

That was goddamn horrendous.

 

[LuGBuG]

What happened to JT tonight...he figuratively did that to my team on July 1st, 2018.

You honestly have some issues and should talk to someone
