this ain’t it dude. It was a hit to the head.

 

[Megustaelhockey]

100% the right call. Could be a fine or a short suspension due to no history.

 

[Crease]

Match penalty. Suspension incoming.

Where’s the rule quoting guy ?

 

[Mickey Marner]

Shoulder right to the bean, he’ll sit a few.

 

[LeonDraisaitl]

Are you trying to imply that’s a solid hit?

 

[EdJovanovski]

Clean hit IMO, penalty for being too big

 

[Calad]

5 minutes for being too tall. Crouched down, elbow tucked, coasted into the hit.

 

[Tob]

Just too big and strong for this league. Needs to learn how to use his size. Maybe Bruins fans can enlighten me on how Chara manages his size and strength. Hip checks to the chest?

Are you trying to imply that’s a solid hit?

Yeah, it was textbook. Shoulder tucked, glided in. 5 minutes for being to big and Bastian having his head down.

 

[FoxyClean]

Can someone clarify what's wrong with it? No jump, no upward motion, no reaching. Just skating in a straight line while being 6'8".

 

[The Crypto Guy]

Scott Stevens is loving that hit.

Oh and big guys cant hit anymore, more at 11.

 

[GG96]

Elbow tucked. Didn’t stride into him. What is he supposed to do?

I think you need to read the rule book. That's a textbook multi-game suspension. Targetted the head of a player looking down.

 

[Harbour Dog]

Suspension worthy for sure. Might end up getting the kid sent back down to the AHL for the rest of the year too.

 

[WhiskeyYerTheDevils]

Elbow to the face seems like a pretty easy call.

 

[EdJovanovski]

Are you trying to imply that’s a solid hit?

Bastian skated with his head down right into him, is he supposed to just let up on everyone because he's big?

They are going to suspend him.

 

[GG96]

Better start mandating all NHL players need to between 5’10 and 6’2

 

[Filthy Dangles]

wtf is the image in the OP? Lol is that Fox

 

[Oscar The Grouch]

It's funny, there are a ton of advantages to being tall in hockey..but guess what, there's one disadvantage: you gotta be careful with your hits.

 

[Tobias Kahun]

Elbow tucked. Didn’t stride into him. What is he supposed to do?

Not hit him in the head.

Being tall doesnt give you the right to headshot people.

This will get him 2 games.

Interesting interpretation of the rulebook. Shoulder tucked, no elbow involved. Not sure how that can be "targeting the head" perhaps he is to tall and we need to cap player height?
