Morgan Rielly cross check to the head of Ridley Greig (DOPS UPDATE: In Person Hearing - 6 games or more possible)

Still losing…

Some Canadian teams have been to the conference final recently and some haven't...

 

[Canucks LB]

As an outside fan, who has no attachment to either team, I am loving this thread

 

[Karl Eriksson]

stutzle dive on the first penalty was way worse than the slapper. Reilly just lacks some cognitive abilities.

 

[David Suzuki]

should be done for the season

 

[gimbznyr]

Should be 8-10 games just absolutely thuggery

 

[Kevin27NYI]

f*** around and find out

 

[Tob]

Ottawa has divers and showboaters, a telling aspect of the teams lack of maturity and success. The hit is whatever, suspension, par for the course.

 

[GCK]

What a sh!tty move by a really classy player. Deserves 4 games at least.

Ok and yet still haven’t won a cup

No Canadian team has much of any success so I can’t see how an Edmonton fan is bringing up leafs playoff stats in this thread

 

[Captain97]

Gallagher just got 5 games for a hit to the head with no suspension history.

I'm guessing Riley gets something similar.

Good for them. I eagerly await their parades for nearly winning their conference.

What would Rielly have done to this??

 

[North]

Rielly probably should’ve dropped the gloves or whacked him hard in the shins I guess

That would have been way better than what he did. I have no issue with him reacting, it’s just the way he did it was unfortunate.

 

[onetweasy]

People should Google the Dale Hunter hit on Pierre Turgeron that got Hunter 30 games and tell me why Reilly’s cross check to the face in a very similar setting is only worth a game…..

 

[Cody Webster]

People are upset he took a slap shot into an empty net? Oh the horror!!!!

 

[Sombastate]

I would have preferred Reily dropping his gloves like a man. But, ya know, not my call.

Greig was being a dick. Reily was being an asshole. One will get a very well deserved suspension

 

[Woodrow]

What's the difference between that "disrespectful" shot and pimping a walkoff no-doubter HR in a tight baseball game?

Nothing. Dumb caveman sports code where if someone shows you up people want you to attempt to intentionally injure them apparently.

 

[AchtzehnBaby]

Classy like this

 

[Ouroboros]

This is not the sort of play that gets you respect in the handshake line.

 

[Gabe Kupari]

Then why doesn’t anyone else ever do it?

They do. There is normally a goalie tho there. Are you feeling sorry for the netting here or some made up toxic code

 

[frightenedinmatenum2]

What a sh!tty move by a really classy player. Deserves 4 games at least.

He will be lucky to only get 4.

Blindsided attack to the head after the play with 5 seconds left.

Very dumb play that may have cost the Leafs their season. If they don't make the playoffs, this will be remembered for years as the turning point.

 

[Edgelord]

Classy like this

do you even remember the context?
Because you're presenting this out of context

 

[Blender]

Dale Hunter got 21 games for doing this to Pierre Turgeon. Riley will probably get away with a fraction of that even though he should get way more.

 

[Aashir]

They do. There is normally a goalie tho there. Are you feeling sorry for the netting here or some made up toxic code

then that’s not the same thing

Score the empty netter tf? Ice the game but the slapshot is unnecessary af

It’s not “toxic code” if it’s never done, it’s just a code.
