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

Imagine thinking it matters, and then trying to insult others who don't care about what type of shot others use.

You: "it matters what shots they use!!! You must not play hockey if you don't care about shot choices! You have to get angry like me or else you don't play hockey!grrrr!"

Lol yeah ok.

It's hard responding to someone who keeps moving goalposts, I'm not sure when you're lying or when you're speaking the truth

Never moved the goalposts once.

I said no one came after Rielly. You thought a couple hugs meant they came after Rielly. He didn't even get a facewash.

 

[NyQuil]

And what? They're going to miss the playoffs?

They survived when Matthews got suspended.

I watch hockey for entertainment purposes and it was certainly fun to watch Rielly get all rielled up in a losing cause.

A cherry on top of a pleasant evening.

 

[saskriders]

The number of Sens fans defending a the slapshot on TV who they think hurt anyone's feelings is even more impressive.

The fact that someone who types like this can opperate a computer is even more impressive.


Wow, I said something slightly mean that could have insulted someone. I guess I deserve to get cross-checked in the head for that.

 

[Master P]

Hang it in the louvre

Rockstar sh*t

Yeah and Leafs fans and Sheldon Keefe enjoyed his reaction more than doing nothing.

Entertaining all around.

 

[Pierre from Orleans]

Watching the game at a bar with some friends. My Nucks fan friend even said when you take a slapper like that you deserve everything that comes next.

Guess he won't be doing that again.

Your Nucks fan friend said that? Well that settles it..

Tell me more about your beer league, Gretzky.

 

[Leaf Fans]

I wonder if Greig will do it again now though

Likely he will be a healthy scratch the next game.

 

[norrisnick]

I'm truly baffled that there are so many hockey fans here so completely fragile that they think scoring an empty netter warrants any kind of physical response at all. Had Grieg held his stick at crotch level and hipthrust the puck into the net it still shouldn't create this response. Don't like a team scoring an empty netter on you? Don't be down late in the game and give up possession.

Truly infantile...

Of course, I'm sure for fans in the building it was a fun end to the game.

Let's be real though, the usual narrative here is that the Leafs are soft and don't defend themselves, and then when they do (I agree this was an overreaction), they still get chirped around here.

Just helping you out, not everyone subscribes to the definition you make up in your own head

 

[All Mod Cons]

Rielly is a baby. Ridiculous. Should be suspended 10 games, completely reckless intent to injure.

And I’m no fan of the Sens lol

10 games? Is that the worst thing you've seen all year?

 

[Czechboy]

I actually hope to see a player go behind the net and do a Michigan on empty net now.lol

 

[Kegu]

I dunno Rielly seemed pretty butt hurt, lots of crying about the code being broken. But sure no feefees were harmed by the slapshot.

 

[AchtzehnBaby]

It wasn't the teams post game interview. It was on HNIC immediately after the game before they went to the locker rooms.

Maybe they didn't show it in the Sens broadcast? Go watch Giroux defend Rielly more than his own teammate.

Are you crazy?

He said nothing of the sort even though the lame biased CBC tried to get him to call out his teammate.

 

[NyQuil]

Yeah and Leafs fans and Sheldon Keefe enjoyed his reaction more than doing nothing.

Entertaining all around.

Have to find a silver lining somewhere.

 

[Korpse]

After years of being called emotionless, I’m not sure this is going to turn the tide as much as they think.

 

[K1900L]

Could you imagine Stutzle's reaction if it was him getting that cross check. He'd still be rolling.

The only place he'll be rolling tonight is on a box-spring bed from most beautiful female Leaf fan to second most beautiful female Leaf fan.

No, the gambling was.lol

He's viciously trying to move goalposts for the 5th time after the first 4 didn't work out

Defend what exactly?

Who was hurt? Their feelings? Their pride?

This isn’t protecting anyone other than their poor egos.

 

[19nazzy]

At least 5 at a minimum, deserves at least 10.

 

[Matty Sundin]

The number of Leafs fans defending a crosscheck to the face because the slapshot on TV hurt their feelings is impressive.

I get it. They will never win no matter what they do. If he did nothing then everyone would be saying the leafs are soft and let people bully them.

Our feelings hurt? lol way to exaggerate. I agree it’s dirty but any team will respond to that in some way.

 

[Rob Brown]

Have to find a silver lining somewhere.

The alternative narrative here would have been 'lol the Leafs are so soft I can't believe Rielly didn't even do anything or retaliate!!!!!!!'
