Nick Robertson pushes and injures teammate W. Nylander

[5 Minute Major]

If any video was ever begging to have a cow prod photoshopped into it……I think I know the leading candidate.

 

[BLNY]

Tush push gone wrong.

 

[Cursed Lemon]

This is the stupidest f***ing thing I've ever seen

 

[WhatTheDuck]

Bizarre play, but hate to see these head injuries nonetheless. Fingers crossed it's not serious

 

[andora]

This happens all the time and robertson gets piled on

Stay om your f***en feet

 

[VeteranPresence]

This is... what?

 

[Masked]

We need the audio to hear if Robertson yelled out kan-CHO!

 

[OilersFanatics505]

Hope nylanders ok after that vicious push. The way he fell over it had to be a really bad push to the lower back right, right?

 

[Derailed75]

What would you define force applied to an object to accelerate it away from you as?

Ok might need to redefine force than, was a lot more of a graze than anything else.

 

[rahad]

How much does Nylander weight? 50 lbs? Bruh why is he falling like that.

Nylander as trying to get a penalty.

 

[OilersFanatics505]

Somehow the leagues going to suspend the Montreal player for a vicious kick.

Looks like Robertson pushed to speed up Nylanerr for basically no reason, Nylander then dives and gets hit on the blindside by a MtL player who must have wondered WTF.

Bizarre sequence here

The Leaf’s never fail to entertain

“Robertson we need you to step up this season”

“sorry coach, best I can do is concuss our 2nd best player”

 

[jeffff]

All I see is a teammate trying to help another….that “push” play happens all the time in hockey.

It actually looks like Nylander dove…..in which case he deserves it. If not, he needs to stay in his feet.

 

[Leaf Fans]

Well that was .. something.

A high risk - no reward play?

He rewarded himself with a goal.

 

[Breakers]

Who was the last player to injure himself trying to dive

I believe Hartman did

 

[CanadienShark]

Friendly fire. Wtf was he thinking?

 

[3074326]

What is he even doing? Very strange play.

 

[Speedtrials]

Having watched hockey for 30 years, I honestly don't think I have ever seen anything like that. Really hope its not a concussion, and Nylander is alright.

 

[NotAVacuumSalesman]

Alright, let’s be honest.. You’ve watched the clip more than five times, it gets progressively more comical as you replay the clip.

I also hope Willy is OK. I think it’s a freak and unfortunate play that happened.

 

[GarlicbreadTB]

This can only happen to Toronto.

 

[Canadienna]

Looked to me like Nylander was trying to go down easy thinking it was a crosscheck or an opponent's stick.

Otherwise not sure what makes him go down .

Stay om your f***en feet

Does it? Post a clip

 

[I Hate Philadelphia]

Zero shot he is concussed from that.

He felt a slight nudge and went full yard sale Leafs diving team mode to draw a call. Was held out of the game to save face because it's exhibition.

He did take a knee off the head when he fell. I can see that causing a concussion.
