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

[Pablo El Perro]

Alfredsson needs to lay off the bottle, that nose is getting to Rudolph territory

What else is he supposed to do?

 

[A1LeafNation]

Thanks for sharing. Tell your Canucks fan he is a little bitch for us as well.

I can definitely tell you Greig is even more likely to do it again

Classic case of FAFO.

Looking forward to seeing him do it again LOL.

 

[Rare Jewel]

Shoulder? The primary point of contact is his neck, upwards to his face.

The shoulder patch ripples first, and the momentum carries his stick into his neck.

 

[Leaf Fans]

No. The exact opposite. Greig was shown that the Leafs are ridiculously easy to throw off their game.

How?

 

[WaitingForThatCab]

Hockey players can be bigger babies than baseball pitchers, apparently. Rielly should get a long suspension for that.

 

[Pablo El Perro]

The hockey equivalent of kneeling to end the game is literally scoring the empty net goal. Always has been.

Yeah, a better comparison might be a player running the ball back on a turnover with 5 seconds when you have a late lead and the opponent is trying to score. Don't get all this take a knee talk.

WAS active until 2024, I guess he's already been kicked out of the NHL for this shit.

 

[Kegu]

What a terrible comparison lol

Why is the slapshot worse?

 

[PaulD]

Hey Botterill "what if that was your son getting sticked" ....for scoring a goal.

 

[Metroid]

Classless

Super classy celebration.

The Leafs defence for the next 5 games is going to be egreigiously bad.

 

[Gil Gunderson]

Suck it up, Leafs haters! This is the kind of team-first take-no-bullshit turning point that's going going to turn the team's season around. Rielly just gave the Leafs a rallying cry, they're now going to discover their esprit du corps and move past having the league's worst defense, zero depth and garbage goaltending to becoming the #1 Cup contender!

I couldn’t agree more about this valuable lesson.

If you taunt the Leafs in an unclassy manner, they will send their top d-man to pathetically attempt to crosscheck you in the head and get suspended for 5 games.

 

[PaulD]

Kid has done nothing in the league. Complete BS move for a team who hasn’t sniffed the playoffs. Good for Reilly. Very unlikely he means to cross check him in the face knowing his character but that kid was asking for a punch to the face.

and Reilly could have given him one or two.
Didn't , cross check instead.

Yeah, so?

 

[Pierre from Orleans]

I bet Grieg would never have attempted something like that if the Leafs had someone like Reaves on their roster.

 

[ACLEVERNAME]

Aweful and embarrassing 'comment'. No ammo in a thread where your team got completely outclassed so you result to this shit. Alfredsson suffers from rosacea and people have been 'poking fun' at this since his playing days.

Grow up.

 

[Enga Olly]

Yes, but only if they met In the first round .......if you dont get the leafs in the first , you don't get them at all.

PallyDee with his full ignorance and obsession on full display

Too bad no PO for the habs once again. Looks like that will be the case for a couple of more years too. Beyond that, tough to predict. Enjoy your hate - it's the only thing you have

The shoulder patch ripples first, and the momentum carries his stick into his neck.

The shoulder patches are on the upper shoulder, its not like there's an expectation that one would hit someone in the shoulder patches without going right to the head as well.

I'm not a betting man, (crazy to think considering I watch sports some times, guess the ads don't work?)

You actually think Mo gets 5 games?

I'm going to laugh at even 1 game.

5? You really think so?

"the wheel of uncertainty is currently spinning"

 

[Gil Gunderson]

Considering some agree that the appropriate retaliation for a slapshot in an empty net is a crosscheck to the head, can you tell me what the appropriate retaliation for a crosscheck to the head is?

Is a Sens player justified in going full Matt Cooke on Rielly the next time they play? Tell me why or why not.

 

[Reality Check]

At least you could understand why Perron did it.

Reilly is upset over Greig shooting the puck too hard.

 

[JPeeper]

Reilly is one salty boy. Crosschecking a dude in the head because you lost, suck it up, disrespectful? Play better, man up son and take it, you lost he beat you, prevent the EN situation, prevent getting scored on, what a baby. Greig don't need to do that though lol.

Got to be 5+ games, crosschecked him right in the side of the head pretty much blindesided. If you're gonna be salty, fine go at him, but a crosscheck to the head is a crosscheck to the head.

 

[Frank Drebin]

Is Reilly the root of the Leafs issues?

That is not what happened.

 

[KevinRedkey]

That’s total horseshit and anyone watching the videos can see it for themselves.

But.. but.. HNIC said so!
