ristolanins punk cheap shot on edvinsson

[Golden_Jet]

Hit looks clean from angle provided.

 

[SantosHalper]

How you manage to butcher Risto's last name, funny. Go watch Lacrosse.

Looks like Latvian version.

 

[Leafs87]

Looked like a clean hit to the chest

 

[BHD]

I wish he did. He's been soft for years now.

For whatever reason, he always went after Jake Guentzel. It was weird.

 

[Albatros]

Welcome to the big league, kid.

 

[bleedgreen]

Needs more angles. Looks like an upright tall guy hitting an upright tall guy.

 

[Chainshot]

What year is this video from

Zapruder?

 

[Ace]

without a reverse angle this looks totally fine.

 

[eviohh26]

Hard to tell. You can see his elbow come up at some points but have no idea if he made any contact with it.

As long as Edvinsson doesn't miss more then a game or two I don't really care if it was clean or dirty, we just need our giraffe back out there. I wish the Yzerman regime wasn't so hush hush with absolutely everything, even a generic and vague status update on Edvinsson would be cool. As far as us fans know, Edvinsson will be out for anywhere between zero games and the rest of his career.

Yzerman will provide an update at his next media ability, don't worry...

Ristolainen is not smart nor good at hockey. Odds are therefore it was his typical tried far too hard to make any impact on the game.

 

[dirtydanglez]

a little late but otherwise fine

 

[Dessloch]

Looks like a shoulder to the chin/head, so should have been a penalty on the play! Just a stroke of bad luck that the main contact is the center of Edvinsson, and probably his chin. But Risto rolled the dice on a pointless late hit and Edvinsson probably suffered a concussion because of it! From only one angle its hard to tell for sure, but I am betting on the shoulder hitting him in the chin!

I used to call him Rasmus Rustolium when he was a Sabre

 

[MMANumminen]

Edmanulonov got rocked!

That’s because Jake Guentzel is a no good goddamn goalie poker, just ask the teeth marks on Jeff skinner’s stick if you don’t believe me!

Seriously though, he strikes me as a very selective agitator- I can see him always doin something just to f*** with one guy. Works better that way.

 

[PlayMakers]

Clean hit.

 

[Bileur]

I was expecting much more from the thread title.

Seems like a legal hit to me.

 

[Pierre Larouche]

You'd be surprised how little Trouba does this anymore. It happens like once every 25 games. He's much less physical now.

Trouba seems to need to elbow something in the face every day.

 

[ijuka]

Wasn't that just a hit to the chest? Everything was tucked, dunno what about this is a cheap shot. If something hit his head, what could it possibly have been? Looked like a hit to the chest and a bit of theatre.

 

[HTFN]

Your 6’4” messiah after getting bumped by Little Jacky lol. My favorite part is when he holds his face after getting hit in the chest.

Sucks for Edvinsson. Insult to injury I suppose after not having a single teammate stand up for him after getting absolutely rocked like that.

Probably because it was a headbutt, inadvertent or not that's going to hurt.

The f*** are you talking about?

 

[Christien]

Well, he’s ruled out for the weekend and possibly mondays game as well

That theater is lasting at least a week. Looks like a shoulder to the chin which is an illegal hit, and the injury seem to back that up! Does not matter if everything was tucked in if you hit someone directly in the head!

Looks like it was a hit through the body, where the head also gets hit,
Which is a legal hit.
