If someone comes after Landy with an intent to injure or non-intent but high likelihood of injury then that’d be the ultimate disrespect to an elite player that has worked so very hard to return from LTIR despite setbacks. Contact? Hits? Yes within the bounds of the game. Hits intended to injure or likely to cause that? Absolutely not. That’d deserve immediate ejection and suspension much less a few facial fractures IMO.

Yhea, call me naive but I think this will transcend normal rivalry, even come playoff time. They will play him hard, but I don't see someone going dirty on him.

Benn and Marchment would absolutely take him out if they get a chance. Clean, dirty, whatever it takes.

If Landy, or any player, gets blown up cleanly that is purely on them. Circumstance doesn’t matter, this is a full contact sport. Sure a team response makes sense but in no way does ejection let alone suspension.

Reread what I wrote about intent or willful disregard of a high likelihood of injury. You’re talking about a full contact sport and I agree. Thuggery is NOT sport!

There are always those players. But there’s a difference. Like when G got knocked out by the Blues. That was unfortunate result but a legit hit IMO.

Where are all the "Landy is 100% done" posters who knew he'd never play again?

Consulting a physician because the swelling still hasn't gone down.

 

[Vaslof]

Purposefully injuring opponents best players remains the best strategy in the game. The punishment does not match the crime at all. Preferably you'd do it in the regular season so you only sit out meaningless games. I'm glad only a few players have figured this out.

Still here and still expect so.

The old double down approach

The old double down approach

A little practice is still a long way from playing at NHL level.

I would love to be wrong though. It would be an inspirational comeback story. His attitude of never giving up is one I employ in life as well.

A team with Jamie Benn as captain would never.

Unlike those dirty dirty Vegas Golden Knights and their captain Mark Stone. I've seen him purposely put his entire body weight into cross-checking a guy on the ground in a playoff game. In the face!

Landeskog is replacing Girard

I don't know how you can replace Girard when their stats this year aren't even remotely close.

And I'm not even talking about the eye test.

For real. EAT SHIT NERDS!

This is rare. I’m a Video Producer for a larger company and work with lots of others. Generally we all shoot 6-8k and provide enough room in framing to accommodate for both.

It's not common, but it depends on the project and what you're shooting. I just worked on a project for Kia that had a quick turnaround and shot both.

Not really about quality after cropping and reframing, but it saves a bit of time in post, and also serves as a reminder for the DP and Director to frame with the crop in mind.

Sometimes when cropping 16:9 for 9:16 there will be tight shots that just don't look great when cropped because there's not enough headroom, or you'll have to keyframe the crop in post to move around the frame. You can also avoid having to make two different edits for both sometimes if shot right.

When money is less important for companies than time and getting the right shots it can help a bit.

I read it just fine the first time. Maybe you want to rephrase? The bolded is perfectly acceptable and is in no way suspension or ejection worthy if it is clean.

Non-intent to injure doesn’t mean a hit is always legal. Remember when Marchand concussed Makar when he came into the league. Legal hit? I guess but I suspect Marchand wanted to hurt him or didn’t give a shit if he did. If that’s the standard that questionable hits of that nature are legal then don’t be surprised when the other team takes the same liberties. I would’ve taken out Marchand’s knees later. Seriously.

 

[Avsfan1921]

I don’t recall the specific hit you are talking about, sorry. Nor do I thank that context applies to what we are discussing. We are discussing a clean hit, not questionable in the context of non-intent but high likelihood of injury as you stated.

What I am saying, and will always stand by, is that if a player gets hit extremely hard but abides all the rules, then it is absolutely clean. And every hit that is extremely hard is meant more than just to separate a player from the puck, as is the definition of a check.

Guys don’t blow up other players without thinking it could cause injury. I’ve no doubt that for most it’s to put the fear in the back of the opponents head first and foremost, but each and every player knows there’s a good possibility to injure on a big hit. And they still choose to do so, and should not be punished if it’s done in a legal, clean manner.

The way Marchand hit Makar it was pretty clear that he was giving him the NHL welcome. Marchand may not have expressly intended to injure Makar but I’m pretty sure Marchand knew the very same type of hit and the way he administered it had concussed other players. Can you say that he didn’t expressly try to concuss Makar? I’m fine with that. Instead Marchand essentially didn’t give a and hit Makar anyway knowing it was LIKELY that type of hit would result in injury. I get where you’re coming from but there’s always players like Marchand that pull that kind of stuff. It may be legal but if you do that then I’m intentionally hunting you if I’m Makar’s teammate. For myself, I’d rather see hockey and look for clean hits like in the POs. The players hit hard but I don’t think most have that intention.

Therein lies our difference of opinion I suppose, with the bolded. I just simply don’t agree that you can or should eject/suspend a player if they cleanly hit somebody because “they likely knew that the clean hit could result in injury.” Obviously a team will respond in a certain manner to a hit and that’s within their right. But for the league to do anything about a clean hit based on how they perceive a players intent on a clean hit is insane.

I went back and watched a video of it. It was a clean hit and I was wrong. Makar slightly ducked and Marchand skated his side and shoulder hit high but clean. It wasn’t targeting the head area. Generally I agree with what you write but there’s always players like that Vegas thug. What was his name Ryan Reaves? NHL site says he’s with the TML now.

Yeah, I can’t comment on that hit in general as I don’t recall. I’m just referring to the concept of any hit, if it’s legally clean, and the outcome of the hit. That’s my view in general.

Watching the game tonight, one of the things that has me the most excited about Gabe coming back is that our third line is going to be stout if the rest of the lineup is more or less healthy.

One of Drouin, Lehky, Nuke, Gabe will be on the third line with Coyle. Coyle is a pain in the ass, but I think he's also got underrated skill. Giving him a top six forward to play with could really make things interesting. I would prefer it to be Gabe or Lehky.

JD-Nate-Nuke
Lehky-Nelly-Peaches
Gabe-Coyle-Kivi
RosCo-Drury-LOC

The two most out of place players are Kivi (a league minimum 16 goal player on the 3rd line) and Colton (a 4M "center" playing LW on the 4th line).

Colton 100% remains on the 3rd line.
