Meier Crosschecks L’Heureux in the Face (Suspended 1 game)

NHL spinning that wheel. Love to see an explanation how this is literally any different then what Matthews got 2 games for against Dahlin.

Difference was the force behind the cross check to the face imo.

Could be wrong here, but it looked like a lot of the cross check was caught by Lh’s armpit. It does look like he got some in his face, but not to the extent that he sold it.

Re watching the matthews-Dahlin ... Dahlin started to disengage w Matthews and was turned to the side

DoPES got it right both times imo ...

 

[All Mod Cons]

Seems about right. Same as Matthews and then add the extra game.

I don’t think anyone thinks .73 ppg is close to ppg. I’d say needs to start with a .9x to be considered close, but has some promise.

Yeah you are right I was generous with the AHL PPG stat. Either way the point still stands. Kid has plenty of skill.

It's a penalty for sure, but not a major/game misconduct/probable suspension-worthy one. Not even close. Possibly a worse call than Quinn Hughes getting tossed a few nights back.

.... Okay Timo did knock some teeth out, I think it's slightly worse than the hughes debacle lol

Ya teeth probably worse than a few stitches

Dirtbag play by a dirtbag player. Enjoy your suspension.

from the #1 rempe fan

you are definitely a class act.

I was told the NHL was setting the standard at 2 games when Matthews did the exact same thing ?

no one cares, save it for the toronto board

Worth it.

agreed. Every team in the league should be sending a thank you card to Meier for teaching him a lesson before the kid does something even more stupid.

Punch him in the head, then you don’t get suspended.

Its a good thing I don't care about your opinion then

Last I checked this is the general forum, now run along.

1. sucker punching can lead to a suspension

2. Meier's hands are to valueable, The stick can be replaced if it breaks.

You don’t sucker punch him, you challenge him to fight or turtle.

The guy is a literal psychopath, he's going to learn nothing

At least we know the Devils aren't bitches this season and are willing to fight, hit, and get dirty when needed.

Only 1 game? If I was that player that got cc in the face I'd be looking to do the same thing back a Meier...

Matthews got 2 games. Will be interesting to see how Georgie Boy handles this.

Will be interested to see if he comes up with a video explanation.

Offsetting lenient suspensions.
