Nick Robertson pushes and injures teammate W. Nylander

[Thallis]

It is absolutely insane how many people are saying an established NHLer is diving in the preseason

 

[Fripp]

It’s pretty odd that Nylander went down that easily tbh, much worse skaters have managed to stay up in the exact same circumstances.

I’m not gonna say he dove, as it’s impossible to say for certain and feels like illogical time to be taking a dive, but it sure does look like one.

Oh he definitely dove. Feels a stick and takes a fall.

 

[Nikolajs Sillers]

That's just strong hockey play, oh wait.

yeah it's really hard to believe that different events had different outcomes. Certainly impossible that whatever balance Nylander had while taking an unexpected push from behind caused him to fall, the only possible answer is he was desperately trying to dive for a PP in a meaningless game. The board really has it solved.

It's not impossible but considering how often this occurs with no incident, the probability is likely not so high. However, I acknowledge that it could have been just a freak incident. He could have had his stick in just the right spot at the wrong point in his stride and the push was sufficient to launch him forward to that degree

That being said, it's also not impossible that Nylander felt a stick and not thinking about whether it was a meaningless preseason game or not, instinctually reacted with embellishment.

Both possibilities can't be dismissed IMO. Visually, it looked a bit too exaggerated for me.

Nylander is fine and practicing. Can this thread be put to pasture now?

 

[Golden_Jet]

100%.

I have zero idea why hockeyvirus jumped to the concussion angle.
Might be good as headline writer looking for clicks.

 

[Peasy]

So the thread title gets changed yet it is still completely incorrect and misleading i cant

Bizarre sequence here

Not returning to the game...

He got blindside hit to the head, was slow getting up, and left without anyone pulling him. He was concussed. Severity is TBD.

Looks like you guys were as wrong as you were arrogant about it.

'He was concussed. Severity is TBD.'

Absolute clown post.

And he or someone else has since changed it from "concussed" to now "injured" even though that once again isnt true

The thread should be closed at this point.

Feels like the Wilhelm Scream should be in here somewhere

 

[Claxton]

To be fair that was really soft by Nylander. Willy wants out of the factory, he's had enough!

most leafs thread ever

 

[dukeofjive]

Leafs media or this site? Dont see this being talked about anywhere lmao.

Your right kyper ain’t leaf media.

And he's totally fine and at practice this morning. You're right, can't make up the fact that people like you are still here blowing it up and over exaggerating the whole thing.

How is this thread even open still? Now it's just a thread about a player falling down after a play that happens pretty regularly.

Lol should stick to the leafs board , so hard being a leafs fan…

If you think this is thread worthy then that's fine. You've posted in here dozens of times, weird thing to be so excited about.

Do you understand how being a fan of a team works?

If banter is too hard for you to handle maybe switch your fandom.

 

[The Marquis]

I'm only here for the photoshopped gifs. I'm sorely disappointed there are none.

 

[The Shadow]

If this was any other team it would be 1-2 pages. Why is everyone so concerned about the leafs?

No clue what the first sentence is supposed to mean.

As for the second sentence, the fact that I am engaging in a back and forth with you would indicate that I understand the concept of banter. However, generally that means the back and forth is witty in nature, which isn't something I think you are accomplishing.

Clearly you don't If you think fans can/should just change teams willy nilly.

Wait, you mean a show that is centric around the Leafs, talked about something that happened in a Leafs game

Ah, the good old 'you're mad' response. Thanks for proving my point about the poor 'banter'.
