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

[KirkAlbuquerque]

Love it from both Ridley and Reilly

same.

Brutal attack? It'll be a couple games but you are not on this planet if that qualifies as a "brutal attack."

He cross checked him to the head from the blindside so the playewr could not even defend himself...what wasn't an "attack" or " "brutal"

Please clarify.

 

[WORLDSTARHIPHOP]

So who on the Sens goes after Reilly next time they play?

Not sure, but I think a headshot is warranted. After all, a crosscheck to the head is pretty classless no?

Is it illegal to slap shot a puck into an empty net or something?

No, but it will likely cause at minimum a fist in your face for obvious reasons

 

[saskriders]

It's disrespectful. That's it

But cross checking someone in the head isn't? Not just a dangerous move, but the play isn't even on, and the game is essentially over. That is waaaay more disrespectful.

Maybe one can argue Greig was kinda being a showboat. But just suck it up and act like an adult. Be the bigger person and let it roll off you. And certainly don't make a dangerous attack on the guy.

Do you have documentation of this code?

Ask Giroux - he said emotions got the best of him and then said no comment when asked if he supported Grieg's play.

Is this what they call “gotcha journalism “? I’m not seeing anything brutal. I see one ahole play rewarded with another .

Toronto just set the precedent that hurt feelings means concussions are A OK.

 

[Karl Eriksson]

That’s not what I’d use $91,500 on, but Morgan and I clearly have different spending patterns

 

[Thechozen1]

If he gets less then the 3 games Dillion received I’ll be livid. But not surprised

Dillon’s was at least during play, not after a goal. Reilly is such a cry baby loser. He and the leafs deserve each other.

Possible concussion vs a goal? Yupp definitely on the same level.

 

[Green Blank Stare]

I didn’t think of it like that, and he’s only 21 too. But still if Nurse did that, Hronek would go the same thing

And I'd say Hronek should be done for the year.

Dale Hunter got 21 games for basically the same thing as Reilly 30 years ago. Reilly should get even more.

Do you have documentation of this code?

its written in black eyes

 

[Gil Gunderson]

No, but it will likely cause at minimum a fist in your face for obvious reasons

And if he tried to instigate a fight nobody would care. Instead he went for the cheap shot to the head.

Yeah but he won’t tho haha

 

[AchtzehnBaby]

slapper

 

[Puckclektr]

OMG did you guys see that. He took a slap shot into an open net when there was no goalie. He should’ve just slid it in along the ice. Why would anyone want to a take slap shot which happens probably 20 times a game? Especially when there is no goalie in the way. Imagine the damage to the puck or even worse, rubber marks on the red paint if it hit the post of cross bar. Gary in maintenance would’ve been busy painting those bars on Sunday morning. Seriously. He deserved a cross check to the head. Raising your stick behind you in order to get more power into the shot is such and asshole move where he could’ve snapped it. The fact that the shot was 85mph as to the usually 50-60mph that is allowed by the league is enough to make me mad. Ugh. I don’t blame Reilly. Let’s get the league to make empty net goals illegal if they are too hard or fast.

 

[Madap]

No you.

Okay THIS is quality banter hahaha. Love it. Cheers.

 

[Filthy Dangles]

won't someone think of muh unspoken rules

Did you respond to the wrong post? That poster is right and simply pointed out that it's a lie. This doesn't happen in beer league...as someone who's played hundreds of beer league games.

If it did, you can expect something similar would happen in terms of reaction...whether you feel it's right or wrong

Ridly "Slapper" Greig

 

[joepeps]

I mean... i'm sure next game hes going to get filled in and jumped to fight...

The games was boring and over... there's a reason he did that when the game had 0 emotion in it...

and shit happens... Should have gotten worse... and if a leaf player ever did that shit, he should get filled in too.

I mean yes, I'd prefer Rielly to do literally anything else than cross check him in the head. Go for his ribs.

Lots of fans are confused why Rielly was no happy - it's clear as day way. Not sure how this many people are confused.

 

[hamzarocks]

Enjoy the in person hearing. Ridly is gonna get his free shot in when the time comes.

He's a turtle not a fighter

For those who don’t follow the Sens, Greig really is a good young player. But he’s a bit of a character.

He got suspended A few years ago for carving up Schieffele in a preseason game, if I remember correctly.
