GDT: Preseason Game 5 - Habs vs Sens 7pm Est TSN & RDS

[MarkovsKnee]

So Sens are getting a 7 minute PP. Xhekaj got 5 for interference on Stutzle & 2 for roughing Tkachuk.

Nevermind, they added 2 to Tkachuk. 5 minutes PP.

Oh well, it's only pre-season. PK needs practice anyway.

 

[EveryDay]

5 min for interference but Greig was not a 5 min for interference? Stupid referees....

 

[HabsCode]

What on earth is Xhekaj doing? It's disgusting having a player like him on the team.

Yes what this team needs is a lady bing candidate, enough with the barbaric behavior.

 

[Team_Spirit]

Tkachuk goes for the takedown instantly to say he won the fight without really wanting to fight

Hate Sloth but he did his job.

That's all we asked out of Anderson when Monty and Laine were hit. Don't need to fight just shove the guy get in his face show you care.

 

[YukonCornelius 5thOA]

The only logical explanation is the refs don’t want to lose control of the game.

There is no logic to be found my friend.

 

[Skip Bayless]

5 minutes for interference makes no sense. Game management.

It was 2 minute interference + 5 for fighting

 

[CrAzYNiNe]

I hope the NHL gets this right by kicking Xhekaj out of the game. Not really sure what these officials think when the sens player actually makes contact to the head and gets a 2 minute and Xhekaj only makes contact with body, hands and stick and he gets a 5 for interference. Send player was also a solid .5 to 1 second later than Xhekaj.

 

[Natey]

This ref is a f***ing joke

I'm sure they are taking pre-season into consideration and just tossing him to avoid crap in a meaningless game. If it's regular season, I doubt he gets tossed.

I'm fine with Xhekaj being tossed to defuse things but it looks bad after Greig only got a 2.

 

[Frankenheimer]

He called Stutzle "Kraut" and you cried?

Oh my god that is hilarious. Carry on

 

[Boss Man Hughes]

Dach's hit was to the chest and hit the head. Xhekaj hit the head first.

Are you blind? Dach was hit up high. Neck or above. Xhekaj's hit was nothing.

 

[Matthew McConaughay]

Xhekaj said, if Greig can do it, so can i.

 

[Hannibal]

How is this worst than Greig’s?

 

[Koivu11]

Greig should apologize to Stutzle for not answering the bell.

 

[HabsForHire]

This is it. The mongoloids in this thread agreeing with this hit would likely be up in arms if one of our players was hit like that. Y’all are just way too comfortable being couch warriors.

sure we would, it's already happening to our players. so karma's a bitch.

 

[Wateredgarden]

C'est donc bien violent la pré-saison.

 

[KFlint]

Could have killed him?

Lol hyperbole much

I hate those blindside hits… It’s disgusting.

 

[Riddick412]

Dach's hit was to the chest and hit the head. Xhekaj hit the head first.

Get lost. He hit his stick into him. Watch again

 

[Mrb1p]

Please remove MSL from coaching the PP. It's obvious he's not helping.

You cooked with the first 5 words

 

[sampollock]

Because Tootsie had blood that's why he's gone

 

[David Suzuki]

No need for racism.

germans truly the oppressed class that needs protection from hockey banter

 

[Catanddogguitarrr]

Armia will score the 3rd goal.

 

[Beaker]

Why is that a misconduct? Stop handing out misconducts to manage the game.

 

[DramaticGloveSave]

Xhekaj setting the tone, you headshot our guy we headshot your guy. Thankfully both players are ok but at a certain point you can’t have teams taking out your star players.
