Patrick Laine injured in pre-season game after knee on knee

[overlords]

At least the drivers in Brampton try to fit in.

Man who has obviously not seen brampton over the last 10 years

Nobody but you can also understand why they didn't wanna all get hurt playing dumb out there in pre season , even slaf fighting wasen't needed

It’s hockey. Stand up for your teammates. The game has definitely changed. Slaf did good.

 

[LeafsNet]

I hate both the Leafs and the Habs. I celebrate both clubs’ losses.
But I’m also a fan of our great game. And when a teammate is seriously injured on a bad player there should be a response from the whole club. All the Hab players should have been doing what Slaf did.

And that’s why your great game is now behind MLS in the United States in terms of ratings. That sort of stuff needs to be booted out of the game. If two guys wanna fight, by all means scrap it out. If one guy isn’t interested, don’t bully or gang up on him…or came at him from behind.

Some Habs fans doxxed Pare's family? What the f*** is wrong with people

Its just a tough dynamic in preseason when you see your guy get his knee blown out 5 minutes into the game , not to mention Arber went bat shit. Also like it or not the game has really changed alot of these AHL and east coast guys are just way tougher than most current top 6 NHLers , I agree with your sentiment but the game changing is a real thing

Hab fans are priceless. Most knee on knee are not intentional. Was the one last night? Hard to tell. Way I look at it if you try and take out a guys knee you potentially could be doing harm to yourself . Arber had all game to try and get at Pare but just shows you he's a loose cannon. Pick your spot and your time don't just jump a guy and start throwing bombs with your glove on.

Our great game is not overly popular down south because its players no longer stand up for their teammates like they used to. It’s trending to be too much like soccer, which is a sport without character.

 

[Coaches Coroner]

find it then, maybe Rielly's headshot to Grieg? which u will always get people on both sides but I did say multiple times he was a coward even though he should have done something, but that something should have been to drop the gloves not headshot him like a coward.

but I dunno I cant think of any examples where a Leaf jumped a guy from behind. if it does happen feel free to call me out if I support it, which I wont.

Huh? I was saying if a Leaf did that, Habs fans would be doing a 180.

You’re right. I’m that old man yelling at the clouds.

oh im sorry, I dunno why I read that the wrong way

 

[Silky Johnson]

I mean, did you see what he was wearing? He was practically asking for it.

Yes, he was wearing a Habs jersey. Tempting fate with the hockey gods like that is a dangerous thing.

Football is the most popular sport in the world. LOL.

Even in Southern Ontario/GTA, the two fastest growing sports are football (ie. soccer) and basketball.

Why? It’s cheaper and it’s purely based on skill. There’s no unwritten rule BS in either sport. You come, you play…

Hockey and baseball meanwhile still thinking like the Soviet Union still exists. Crying about bat flips and “answering the bell”.

PS: Ain’t called Saakar either.

Habs fans go hard.

It’s here where the NHLPA plays. And here it’s soccer. And hockey here used to be a game where guys stood up for their teammates. Not just one or two guys but all the players. Sadly that’s changed and the game is trending towards soccer in this way. The Laine situation from last night was just another example of this sad turn out great game has taken.

 

[jetsforever]

Man this guy has had terrible luck
Hope it isn't as bad as it seems

 

[LeafsNet]

The messed up part about it is Pare is from Quebec City. I wonder if he was a Habs fan growing up or a Nordiques revivalist.

 

[Oilslick941611]

Are they as bad or worse than the drivers of Brampton? I’ve heard about the driving there from friends.

Quebec drivers are the worst in the country. I live across a small river from them

 

[Silky Johnson]

Appears Pare is simply a coward. He was also playing the rest of the game so clearly this "assault" was not so bad as some perceive.

See I read this as WiFi hits like a 12 year old girl. He tried his best to injure a player with an extremely dirty and disgraceful "assault" but just couldn't get it done. Weak wrists probably...

 

[overlords]

no justice no peace, or something

 

[Tie Domi Esquire]

Note to self: Injure opponents and draw 7 minute powerplay and get oppenents kick out of game. 2024 hockey is funny. If Pare called him a p***y he'd be suspended for 20 games though.

 

[Faceboner]

no name ahl scrub kills entire hype for habs fans this season

see you next draft

I think Montreal lashes back in a harsh way targeting 3 players on the Leafs roster wouldn't surprise me if they kamikaze the Leafs afterwards

 

[Pip]

You hate to see a knee on knee hit but I was more alarmed by Xhekaj‘s response. Shades of Bertuzzi on Moore. Can’t have that and I hope there is a significant suspension there.

No surprise, that was bad and a bad look for the sport

Incredible, you can attempt to Todd Bertuzzi someone and as long as they don't get significantly hurt it's just a fine

Dumb league doing dumb things
