Kucherov Appears to Intentionally Trip Rasmussen as He Scores

[Enniskillen]

Kuch is a duche but why nobody on the wings team fought him or at least tried to? And all these pro-Russian trolls sound like Solovyev propaganda lol

 

[WEMCHUD]

That again is wrong logic.

Ok ignoring the potential injury possibility, was it a dirty play in your opinion?

Discussion of virtual cases "what if" is pointless.

 

[Rschmitz]

Kucherov was trying to defend the net

 

[OysterForever]

These kind of plays can lead to season, or even career ending injury.

Imagine Rasmussen going full speed to boards or hitting the post.

f*** Kucherov, dirty POS.

Sure, I'm just wondering if you think it was a dirty play or not. Everyone is entitled to their opinion so I'm not going to attack you for whatever it is haha. Just curious as to your thoughts on if it was a dirty play or not.

Imagine if a meteor came and hit the rink.

The argument of taking a penalty to prevent a goal falls on its face once you understand that a goal would have been awarded anyway since it was an empty net and he tripped him from behind on a breakaway.

Which do you think is more likely?

If I were afraid of someone attacked my opinion I would not be on the main boards.

While everyone is indeed entitled to the opinion and nothing wrong with that, it is everything wrong with the attempts to say something like this:
1) Kucherov tripped the player after the goal
2) That could have been an injury, therefore it is dirty
3) Tripping is somehow always attempt to injure and always dirty
4) Mind reading Kucherov's intent to injure
5) Kucherov always tries to injure other players,
etc.

These examples are not opinions. They are just emotional dumb hot takes.

Not Kucherov!! It just couldn’t be! It’s not like he’s a total dirtbag or anything.

Well there has been an increase in Starlink satellites falling so if you count those...

Fair enough. I think it was dirty just based on the situation-on a breakaway with empty net=automatic goal if you're tripped, puck looked like it was going in already when he made contact with his skates and it looks like he's not actually making any attempt to play the puck, just to hack at Rasmussen's ankles. Based on that I'd say it's pretty dirty. I doubt he'll get suspended as idk if anyone has been suspended for a trip before but nhl dops is always random AF.


Edit: I see that Hartman was suspended two games for a trip/slewfoot so I guess there's still a chance justice will be served!

An attempt to stop a player without a penalty often results in a penalty. It does not mean that the players should stop trying just because there is high risk of a penalty and give the other team a free pass.

Either state an opinion of Kucherov's actions or concede the opinion of others.

You're not here to audit opinions.

The play had passed the point of 'trying'. The puck was in. There was nothing left for Kucherov to do. His actions served absolutely no purpose, other than to act out a tantrum.

Thanks for info. I would tell that to anyone who will try to audit my opinion.

Care to explain how Kucherov was attempting not to take a penalty while also taking out another player’s feet from under them?

That is your opinion.

And my opinion is that he played the episode till the end and it resulted in the tripping.

And btw mindreading does not exist.

The trajectory of the puck is not an opinion.

Do I really need to make 3 video compilation of
1) players failing to stop the opposite players with the puck and getting penalties for breaking rules
2) players successfully disrupting enough the opposite players with the puck w/o taking penalties
2) players successfully stopping the opposite players with the puck and getting away with breaking the rules while doing it?

So all of them are dirty because they all Kucherov?

 

[Kegs]

Yes, this is infinitely more dangerous than what mcdavid did

Imagine worst case scenario in both cases:

Broken nose/teeth possibly jaw vs destroyed knee/ankle broken leg
Only one of those could end a career

Wait until you find out how bad a concussion is…

 

[DingerMcSlapshot]

If you ever expect to get tripped it's on a breakaway. Though if, I was Rasmussen. Next meeting nasty slash or crosscheck incoming.

You ignored what I said.

Please try actually answering my question.

 

[Shark Finn]

What do you want him to do there?

Not score but pass the puck to Kuch.
