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

[Three On Zero]

Expected worse from the comments, that really wasn’t that bad at all.

 

[Leafs87]

Couldn’t of happened to a nicer guy

 

[FU Shoresy]

I don't see much there. And I think Kuch is dirty as F!

 

[TheNumber4]

Tkachuk faked it. So obvious. Did no one watch the Finals?

 

[Orca Smash]

Wasnt tkachuk back out for a powerplay after

 

[Bozo Nicholson]

Chucky, second period:

 

[Hank Plank]

Not a dirty hit, just an unfortunate result.

There's always one in the crowd.

 

[VaporTrail]

Damn that's dirty

 

[Maple Leaf]

One cheater injures another cheater

 

[TheNumber4]

All THREE panthers knee “injuries” in the Stanley Cup Finals were faked.

If you don’t think Maurice, who has been feuding with and figuring out how to game the dumbass Refs in this League for nearly 15 years, didn’t have that in his strategy. You don’t know f*** all about hockey.

 

[Louskoolaid89]

Stupid, reckless and dangerous play for both of them.

 

[FrolikFan67]

How? Tkachuck faked being hurt, he's back on the ice.

Like this when a sniper was loose in the building and then he was completely fine? I remember when everyone was calling Tampa PD to get him locked up for life

Maybe if the Leafs had a few cheaters you'd have a cup to show for it.

Yeah Maurice had a one on one with Matthew at 15:00 of the 1st period of game 36 of the season to make sure they got the much needed 5 min penalty to avoid losing a game where they remain first place in the division.

If you think this is a masterplan, you missed the bus this morning to your third year of grade 11.

Looked pretty dirty to me

 

[FrolikFan67]

Idk what got him so fired up leading up to this. Was at the game, he ran Ekblad pretty hard into the boards near the penalty box and was clearly pissed and literally as soon as he finished that check he just made a bee line and tried to take a run at whoever he could. Idk how you don’t see that as dirty. At bare minimum it’s reckless. Thankfully he was just hurt and not injured. With knee on knee collisions you never know if the result is going to be a bad sting from the blunt force or a serious injury like a ligament tear

 

[Hint1k]

Kucherov did not change his trajectory in the last moment. Did not extend his legs. While Tkachuk tried to avoid the hit but left his leg on the way. So the result of the collision is Tkachuk own's fault. That should have been 2 minutes tops.

 

[Monsieur Miz]

Rekt.

 

[TheDawnOfANewTage]

I think Kucherov is smart enough to take a better line and catch shoulder there. If he goes too far the other way it’s a headshot, fine line in today’s game, but Kuch is sneaky dirty. He messed up Sobotka’s knee because he was salty about somethin, very similar where there’s plausible deniability. If anyone still wants to claim unintentional I don’t blame ya, but that motherf***er ain’t real.

 

[CupsOverCash]

5 is fine I don't know about a game. I get it but they're not always consistent with things like this.

 

[SherVaughn30]

Tkachuk trying to play the puck(poke-check the puck off Doucherov's stick). Doucherov didn't even flinch to avoid Tkachuk. It's a dirty play made to look unintentional.

It was 100% deliberate. This guy that sees the game the way he does couldn't avoid Tkachuks knee? No way.

 

[Kennedys]

Not a dirty hit, just an unfortunate result.

Kuch could have destroyed his own knee on the play so yeah. Not intentional for sure

 

[Oilslick941611]

Bitch play by a bitch player on a bitch player

Yah. Nothing to get worked up over. I am surprised Matty didn’t try to turtle though
