Morgan Rielly suspended for five games for cross-checking Ridly Greig in the head (Mod note in OP); upd: Rielly appealing his suspension (upheld)

[Voight]

Heard on sportsradio it could have been 7 games but based on Reilly's history they cut it down to 5

Which is normal. He's a clean player who's never had any soft of trouble.

I never said arrests for cross checks. So I will be ignoring your straw man.

Freidman thought 4-6. Let’s get a spread sheet together and gather all the predictions then we can settle this.

Okay, go ahead.

You literally said if Grieg was injured Rielly should be charged by law enforcement. So far Friedman was the only one I saw in that range.

Going after someone for scoring a goal breaks "The Code" even more so than Greig's exuberant ENG.

No question.

Greig can celebrate a goal or score a goal how he wants.

He hurt no one (other than some players feelings and some fans feelings), and it doesn't deserve a physically violent response.

 

[Arthur Morgan]

You mean got a 1st round pick back?

That doesn't sound like a rental to me.

like I said might as well have been, traded high value for a player and sold for cheap a year later. 2024 BOS 1st didnt have alot of value

 

[93gilmour93]

Thanks for reminding us all how much money your team has sunk into 4 players lol

Nobody needs reminding. Lol

 

[WetcoastOrca]

Hahahaha at people thinking this was getting 10 games or more

Should've been less than 5 games tbh

And even a bigger hahahaha at people thinking he didn’t deserve a suspension.

No question.

So according to the code, does Mo have to fight Brady next year for cross-checking a Sens player in the head?

The CeraVe ad on this site is more offensive than Griegs empty net slap shot.

Okay, go ahead.

Okay so you don’t want to put in the work to prove your argument. We’ll just have to go off what you think you heard.

 

[Relapsing]

Nobody needs reminding. Lol

you might be surprised to learn that the rest of the league doesn't think about your team as much as you think they do lol

 

[mouser]

No issue with the suspension. Was guessing 6 games like Perron, but don’t have a problem they decided on 5 games.

 

[McGees]

Deserved.
He F’d around.
And found out.

 

[Arthur Morgan]

And even a bigger hahahaha at people thinking he didn’t deserve a suspension.

ive seen players do worse and only get a fine, so reasonable to think he wouldnt get anything or atleast less than 5

The work? You're the one that said every analyst had 4-6 games. Show us.

Why make a false claim and expect others to disprove you?

Yup...thats how "the code" works right?

Riley better be ready

I think most reasonable people picked around 5 games. A few outliers said 10 and a few outliers said zero.

Nothing surprises me

I got marek and Friedman. You got Bieksa. Im up 2-1. Your turn.

It's always "If". There is no "if" in this case. Greig wasn't injured. Just because he went down like he was shot doesn't mean he was actually hurt.

 

[Akrapovince]

Riley better be ready

Sounds like something that is suppose to protect the players is creating a lot of opportunities for players being hurt.

 

[OVO16]

No one said that so go ahead and haha at the wall

 

[nucks88]

These clowns on tsn seriously think that only deserved TWO GAMES? WTF?!

The hockey code is CAPTCHA. What it is now isn't what it will be next time.

Seems odd doesn't it.....
