Nick Robertson pushes and concusses teammate W. Nylander

[Michel Beauchamp]

Not returning to the game...

Which is a normal consequence of "being held out as a precaution",,,

 

[Grifter3511]

I have never seen that play in a trivial exhibition game before.

You generally see it when a player is either gassed or hurt and trying to get to the bench. Nylander was already flying down the ice, so was indeed a strange time for a speed boost.

 

[Michel Beauchamp]

He got kneed in the side of the head.

Better described as "kneeing himself in the side of the head", no ?

 

[tarheelhockey]

The range of possible events in hockey is just crazy. You can watch 100 years of hockey and feel like you’ve seen absolutely everything, and then out of nowhere you see some bizarre shit like this.

What does a guy need to be attempting to do to himself to knee himself in the head?

 

[fasterthanlight]

It's crazy how easy he fell, and also how brutal the result was. I hope he gets better soon.

 

[SensFactor]

He wants a spot bad

 

[Morpheus]

The Robertson Screwdriver

 

[WetcoastOrca]

I’m betting this was not the competition for spots that the Leafs were hoping for.

Jokes aside there was a punter for the cardinals who was like 6’6” that accidentally kicked himself in the head practicing punting and fractured his skull

 

[SENStastic]

Well Robertson wasn't happy for being sent down and not having a permanent opportunity last year, so he is making sure he opens up a spot by himself. Gotta respect the initiative.

 

[waffledave]

I'm sorry but that was a dive gone wrong. He felt the push and tried to milk it.

 

[Oscar The Grouch]

100% dive gone wrong. Karma is a bitch.

 

[PB37]

One down, three to go before Robertson gets that top 6 winger spot he's always wanted.

 

[ViD]

Isn’t Nylander a notorious diver ?

 

[Coffey]

Lmao this is why you don’t try during the preseason. Exactly this.

Sucks for Willy.

 

[SheldonJPlankton]

Soft, weak, fragile and heartless.

 

[Colt.45Orr]

You gotsta do what you gotsta do to make the team out of training camp...

 

[kingsholygrail]

Can we have a dive of the year candidate in preseason?

 

[AcerComputer]

How many games should Kadr geti?

 

[PB37]

I guess he really has been pushing to make the team!

 

[The Panther]

I guess Robertson is making a push for a top-six role. And he certainly can be depended upon to help a teammate, when push comes to shove.

 

[McGarnagle]

 

[TheDoldrums]

What is the possible upside for diving during preseason. For a star they are just trying to get through the games, you absolute morons.

 

[Nogatco Rd]

Have you skated before and what is your hockey background?
