huge knob eh?

thanks intermission report.

 

[22 The Maestro]

I don't know why some people are having a hard time figuring this out. The hit was clean; the penalties were given for the scrum afterward because it's 4-0 and the refs are trying to keep the genie in the bottle.

No, we get it. It's just shitty to make it even after a clean hit.

Some team is going to throw a bag at Aiden Hill in free agency and regret it 4 months later. Edmonton?

A scrum Vegas started after a clean hit. Look the game's over but it's a horseshit call.

"He's got the biggest knob in the league."

 

[RobBrown4PM]

You’re incorrect. It wasn’t charging. Like at all.

Charging is the action where a player takes more than two strides or travels an excessive distance to accelerate through a body check for the purpose of punishing the opponent. This includes skating or leaving one’s feet (jumping) into the opponent to deliver a check, accelerating through a check for the purpose of punishing the opponent, or skating a great distance for the purpose of delivering a check with excessive force.”

He took more than 2 strides towards Eichel and then body checked him.

You hope to see it.

 

[KCbus]

anything can happen. It’s the f***ing Stanley Cup not game 82 between two eliminated teams

taking Tkachuk out of the game stopped Florida having a prayer o coming back

Well then maybe he should have skated away.

The biggest in the league even.

 

[MayonnaiseOreo]

No idea how Tkachuk ends up with a misconduct out of that. I'm rooting for Vegas to lose even though I picked them to win the series but damn, it'd be nice for Florida to show up to make it entertaining.

 

[Sheppy]

TWO STRIDES? Wow. Throw him out of the league.

 

[violaswallet]

He got jumped Bro by multiple knights (as they should have).

 

[Filthy Dangles]

No it isn’t.

It’s actually damn close…there’s almost no glide before the hit he’s striding and accelerating right into it.

I could see that being called charging.

 

[Three On Zero]

Some team did throw a bag at Jack Campbell in free agency and regret it 4 months later. Edmonton? Is Aiden Hill next?

Fixed for you

 

[old kummelweck]

Several guys went after him and he was standing up for himself. If you give Tkachuk 10, you should give out 3 or 4 more 10’s.


You’re incorrect. It wasn’t charging. Like at all.

Officials have been managing this tinderbox all night, not surprised they found a reason to sit him out after that series of events.

Problem I have with that is a big hit like that can energize your team. They took momentum away from Florida.

 

[potatowejj]

When a player like Tkachuk or Trouba comes at you like that I think you should bail and try to take them out at the knees with your body. Absolutely kill them like they were trying to kill you.

And get 5 + a game (and possibly more) for kneeing or clipping. Great idea.

That’s the issue with having a well earned reputation as being a shit disturber. You get zero benefit of the doubt. I say that as a long time Ducks fan, and knowing that’s how it works for that type of player. His behavior 48 hours ago certainly didn’t help.

 

[jcs0218]

The long-suffering Vegas fans might just get to see their team win the Stanley Cup very soon.

 

[Guttersniped]

But it all came from that hit. Tkachuk didn’t even do anything…

I don’t know what “it all came from that hit” means, it doesn’t say MT was given a penalty for the hit.

People were saying he was penalized for the hit itself but he wasn’t.

He got a misconduct for the fighting afterwards.

I don’t know what the exactly happened between him and Barbashev.

They drag the refs out to make comments on more obvious stuff but not this mess.

I’m not sure why they don’t explain this for everyone considering that many people think the hit got the penalty. That‘s not what the call was though.

A scrum Vegas started after a clean hit. Look the game's over but it's a horseshit call.

I am prone to agree with this. It looked really dirty at speed but replay showed it was a legit check. As much as I despise Cucky, this wasnt the occasion for a misconduct.

 

[RobBrown4PM]

TWO STRIDES? Wow. Throw him out of the league.

Tell that to the person who wrote the rule, not me. I'm just quoting it.

 

[Sticksandsun]

How are people not understanding this, I keep reading it was for after the hit, why was there no instigator for Vegas for retaliating after a clean hit lmao it's so bad.

 

[JeffP]

The biggest in the league even.

they say it looks big but its only 2 in the box on a penalty highfiveemoji

 

[ORRFForever]

Since when is that against the rules?

There wasn’t a single thing even remotely dirty about that hit. Just because you’re going to lose the game doesn’t mean you lose the ability to throw a big, clean hit.

???

I never said you did. You seem to be reading something into my post I did not say or imply.

 

[authentic]

God damn, that shoulder is absolutely jacked on replay.

Scott Stevens? Is that you?
