Meier Crosschecks L’Heureux in the Face

[Peasy]

Surprised to not see a thread on this yet.



Will this warrant a suspension? Nobody knows!

Edit: Will have a hearing

I think he'll get the maximum fine allowable under the CBA

L'Heureux was being a punk all game and deserved some kind of action against him. Timo probably didn't deserve a major penalty and a game misconduct, but he should have gotten some kind of penalty.

In any case, that was a masterful penalty kill that followed. One shot for both teams and the Devils got the better scoring chance on theirs.

 

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

If he got 5 and a game then that should suffice.

Heard Zach was not happy about it

I think the 5 minute major miiiight have been a bit much, but in the end, they both got what they deserved. So all's well.

L'Heureux f'd around and found out. Had a bit of a dirty play on Cotter earlier in the game and seemed to be generally agitating Devils players. That being said, I don't think Meier meant to cross-check him to the face like that, but it was a well-earned game misconduct. Probably just a fine comes from this.

Wound up working out well for the Devils. They killed off the ensuing 5 minute major giving up just one shot on goal and had the best scoring chance on a shorthanded 2-on-1. All remaining 10 forwards got a shift on that PK. The building was rocking when they killed off the major.

Turned into Zach Le Malheureux, then.

This was hardly intentional, the first crosscheck was standard.

Likely a fine based on precedence.

I have a feeling we’re gonna be seeing a lot of L’Heureux threads for the next decade. That guy is a massive douche on the ice.

 

[Neil Racki]

5 and a game misconduct is DEF warranted if his stick crosschecked the guys face .. I was wondering why the guy went down so fast and the ref is right there to see it

Injury? Hard crosscheck to face after whistle that injures? Thats gotta be reviewed but nothing much

 

[heretik27]

Dylan Demelo absolutely rocked L'Heureux the other night not too far into the game. L'Heureux was trying to start something with Mason Appleton off the opening faceoff so I think Demelo took his number down and ran his ass over when the opportunity presented itself. I can't remember the last time Demelo threw a hit that big in open ice... it was glorious!

 

[All Mod Cons]

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

 

[New Jersey Devils]

Meier should have kept his cool, but L’Heureux got what was coming to him. Have no sympathy for a dude who goes after fans.

So the equivalent to a parking ticket to a non millionaire

 

[Pierce Hawthorne]

Who the f*** is Meier's?

 

[The Crypto Guy]

Dirtbag play by a dirtbag player. Enjoy your suspension.

 

[MVP Zacha]

FAFO L’heureux.

 

[Il Stugotz]

So the equivalent to a parking ticket to a non millionaire

I was so wrong

 

[TrufleShufle]

Dirtbag play by a dirtbag player. Enjoy your suspension.

Whenever Crypto guy sees a Devils thread.

 

[Clam Jensen]

sissons tried to get rough with Nico and he got a hat trick. ZLH threw a dirty hit on Cotter and tried to start shit with Timo after the whistle and got what was coming to him. The devils proceeded to kill off the major in, quite honestly, dominating fashion and then capped it with an ENG.

These are not the soft Lindy ruff devils. They have some nasty to them and it’s VERY refreshing.

 

[Xirik]

Maybe post the whole sequence of events?



Heh, didn't notice "The Rock's" theme playing during it. fitting for the stadium and for what happened on the ice.

 

[Devilsfan118]

No issue with what Meier did.
