Paquette punches Chara, Chara proceeds to one punch him.

[ECWHSWI]

The guy had his ****ing teeth knocked out

how is that a dive or a sell?


people are way too into this idiotic diving/embellishment craze

easy, when punched to the face by someone 6'9 - 260, the guy you quoted dont even blink.

 

[hairylikebear]

Not sure if serious You do realize Paquette threw the first glove punch in both instances right?

And he got a penalty for it. Chara answered with way more force, and justly got the double minor.

So because Chara is bigger and stronger, he gets the double. Ok gotcha.

TIL because you're big and strong you absolutely have to knock a guy's teeth out. No way around it

If the guy punches you in the face first, then yes you knock his teeth out. What world are you living in?

The one where retaliation gets you penalty minutes.

Clearly Chara should have just KO'd Pac-man. He's bigger and stronger, and Pac did start it.

I agree, but double the minutes of the guy who started it?

I doubt Chara cares. His team won the game, and Paquette isn't getting those teeth back.

Im failing to see your point. Are you saying that Chara shouldn't fight back if someone punches him in the face first because he is bigger and stronger?

Is there anything I can say to make you not defend your team's player? Because you can save us both a lot of time right now.

 

[RJ8812*]

Pacquette got what he deserved

I highly doubt he does. But the other poster said the refs made the right call. Obviously I disagree

think he should have punched him a few times more after knocking a few teeth out to KO him, I mean, he does have to fight back any way he wants.

In this case, probably not, because Chara didn't do anything wrong

It's fine to fight back, but there's no reason to hit him that hard since it's going to come with the cost of extra minutes in the box if he domes a guy's teeth out.

He punched a guy in the face. That's exactly what roughing is.

I disagree, but fair enough.

 

[VinikToWinIt]

Dive. Officials get it wrong too giving Chara a double minor for roughing and that flopper who instigated it all gets nothing.


These refs need to be fired.

He lost teeth on it.

Weren't you the guy on your GDT saying you were glad the Tampa Bay players were injured in Philadelphia?

 

[BruinInPhilly]

He punched a guy in the face. That's exactly what roughing is.

They both should have gotten roughings IMO, my issue was with the double minor given to Chara when the whole confrontation was started by Paquette.

 

[NeverForget06]

I understand trying to get Chara off his game but is that the way to do it??

C'mon now... If you start punching a guy in the face he will usually punch back. Was Chara supposed to wrap his arm around the guy and give him a disapproving glare?

Do you guys really call him pac-man?

 

[Tmix]

how about someone actually posts the entire sequence instead of as soon as paquette does something to make it seem like he started cross checking chara first?
including chara boarding matt carle

Nah, expose his old slowness like Montreal did last year.
