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

[TheDoldrums]

All the posters in here screaming about the “code” and how dare you slap shot a puck into an empty should be fine with a senators player hunting down a leafs player next season and cross checking them in the face.

You know cause hockey is “emotional” and “f*** around and find out”

Would love to see the reactions if Marner’s neck is bent in half by a stick next season.

you seem to be one most aptly described as "screaming" tbh, calm down

 

[Hank Plank]

Pull a dick move expect to get your dick swatted.

Even Giroux said no comment........

Thank you. Every vet in the Sens Locker room knows Ridley is an idiot for that.

 

[Edgelord]

If its that big a deal then drop the gloves and fight him.

Crosschecking him in the head isn't the way to go.

I don't agree with that and think he deserves a suspension.
I am just behind the why of it, not the method and results

 

[jbeck5]

piece of shit move by the Greig. Rielly did the right thing

Lmao why would you be mad at Greig.

It really logically makes no difference if he wrists it in, back hands it in, slap shots it in, or snap shots it in.

What difference does that make?

Talk about anger issues.

 

[RegDunlop]

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.

Nobody is confused except you if you can't comprehend that it's the stick to the head that is pushing people off

I’d say 3 games as he has no history. But the blind side nature of the play and the fact it wasn’t part of a hockey play makes it dangerous so a message needs to be sent.

 

[Pierre from Orleans]

I'm a Sens fan, but I hope we trade Greig. The game was over and the Leafs played really hard. I also think it's irresponsible because the Sens fans who have to get out of the arena were out in danger by him.

His slap shot probably cause like 5 world star fights at the arena that wouldn't have happened.

You're not a Sens fans if you want Grieg traded.

 

[Agent Zuuuub]

It’s an unwritten code, all sports have their set of things you just don’t do to big time the other players. Basketball you don’t score when you’re up big at the end of the game or dunk. You let the clock run out. Same kinda deal with football.

Doesn’t mean anything to thee average fan but these professional athletes hold one another to those sets of rules. I can guarantee the vets on Ottawa are probably laying into Ridley for doing that. Happy over the win but probably not happy about him as a young guy doing that.

dude these teams are rivals, it was a close fought chippy game.

no one in ottawa should care about leafs players feelings. that is loser talk.

 

[AchtzehnBaby]

Go ask any person who’s played the game if they are accepting that. I probably wouldn’t cross check him, but I def would have just buried him after the goal which I think Rielly should have done. Cross Check was a bit much, but just shoulder to shoulder bury him. Gets the message across you ain’t gonna just do whatever you want.

Fake news.

Made up.

If this was a GWG for the leafs it would be front page on SN

 

[Master P]

Slapshot with a goalie in the net? Nobody panics.

Slapshot into an empty net? Everyone loses their minds.

Nah, he’s sick

 

[Coffey]

You're not a Sens fans if you want Grieg traded.

I’m scared you couldn’t sense the sarcasm.

 

[bumblebeeman]

HF is good for showing me this other side of humanity I don't normally interact with that think a slap shot into an empty net somehow deserves being assaulted like that. It's like a bizarro world

You are joking right?

its the Leafs, the extra eyes factor will add at least 1 extra game

Dale Hunter sends his regards.

If Matthews did this it would be commendable.

100%

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

What would Rielly have done to this??

On an empty net?

That would be lame.

 

[Hank Plank]

Slapshot with a goalie in the net? Nobody panics.

Slapshot into an empty net? Everyone loses their minds.

Slapshot at the goalie with game out of reach in the final seconds will get the same response.

The same type of people defending a batflip are reeeeeeing over an empty net goal

 

[Ezekial]

You are joking right?

No, he's really upset that Greig put the fans in danger.


You people.

 

[Pierre from Orleans]

I’m scared you couldn’t sense the sarcasm.

This thread is full of emos so it's throwing me off.

 

[All Mod Cons]

It's an exhausting thought when the same fans that are cheering on an intent to injure because feelings were hurt by an empty net clapper will whine and cry when they are on the receiving end of it.

Meh. I think Leafs fans have completely discounted the NHL and Dops to take what happens to their players seriously? Seems that the Marchand incident on Liljegren was kind of the last straw.

Most Leafs fans now want their players to exact revenge themselves and take the lengthy suspensions coming their way.
