Kucherov gets 5 and a game for knee on knee hit on Tkachuk.

[SladeWilson23]

Tkachuk couldn't get off the ice on his own, and needed help to the lockerroom.

EDIT: He's back to start the 2nd period.

Not a dirty hit, just an unfortunate result.

 

[Laus723]

He’s lucky they sent him off. Benny and the others wanted his head.

Hopefully it’s not as bad as it looks.

Nah, looked like he jumped into him. If it wasn’t bad they wouldn’t have sent him off.

(You’re a favorite poster of mine, so not being dickish, just don’t agree)

Bennett - Do your thing

 

[Jersey Fresh]

When's their next game?

When Barkov got hurt completely accidentally by Hischier on a faceoff the Panthers spent the next two games chasing him around. I'm sure they'll do the same with Kucherov.

 

[LeProspector]

Yeah - dirty play. Give him some games

 

[peconcan]

Don’t like Tkachuk at all but that was a greasy hit. Star player for one of Betmans favourite teams so he’ll get the max fine no games

 

[BrannigansLaw]

Lol dirty af

 

[Mr Kot]

Owww that must have hurt like hell.

 

[Pancakes]

I might be inclined to give most players the benefit of the doubt but Kucherov is a dirty player

 

[abax44]

Hmm... that one seems odd. Like he just skates into his leg, not really sticks his leg out. Or I'm totally blind. Either or.

 

[ViD]

Didn’t watch the replay

Will rely on unbiased opinions of Lightning and Panthers fans

 

[FlaPanthers11]

Classic Kucherov. Piece of shit

 

[Joe Rogan]

Goons like Kucherov don't belong in this league

Flattery will get you nowhere.

Ok, maybe it will get you somewhere, but I don't think he was intentionally going for his knee.

I think we are going to disagree for obvious reasons but I really do think it was just an unfortunate result.

 

[Steazy Doo]

People calling for a suspension are kidding themselves. No leg extension and caught the chest as well. Shouldn’t have been a 5, no way it’s a suspension though.

 

[Il Stugotz]

Hopefully just a bad bruise for Tkachuk. Seemed like he was hamming it up a bit

 

[Bounces R Way]

He's hanging that knee out there pretty far.

 

[Nemesis Prime]

Scumbag doing Scumbag things

 

[Duffy13]

The clip above looks like he caught him on the inside of the upper leg, not a great angle, however that still would hurt like hell.

 

[LTIR Trickery]

I can't believe they actually tossed him for that

 

[thefutures]

If you can't take the heat get off the tracks

 

[The Macho King]

Idk kind of a weird play because you normally don't see contact from that angle. 6 inches either way and it's either clearly dirty or clearly clean.

This just kind of looks... awkward.

Haha, come on now.

I think this sums it up pretty good.
