Tanner Jeannot headshot on BROCK BOESER, 5 and game. (upd: 3 game suspension)

[Cupless44]

This suspension is for all the brilliant minds on here who didnt think it was a dirty hit

 

[Raccoon Jesus]

It looked like Jeannot tucked his shoulder around Boeser avoiding a shoulder on shoulder just so he could accidentally tag him in the head. I think it was trying to come across as accidentally on purpose but just looked slimey.

I mean I WISH he was as mustache-twirlingly evil as people in this thread make him out to be, a menacing mastermind premeditating how to make dirty hits on good players look clean, a guy with a rap sheet as long as the dead sea scrolls, because lord knows the Kings could use some ACTUAL toughness that can play

but no, he's just a f***ing stupid plug and can't keep up with the play, there's nothing this big brain about it, he's a bad player who took a bad line and finally got the opportunity to catch up to anyone to throw a hit at

 

[notsocommonsense]

3 games for being too tall is how I see this.

Good lord. Sober up and watch again

 

[Raistlin]

3 plus missing almost the entire game is still probably still a bit too lenient. was expecting 5. DoPS, what can you say?

 

[Heldig]

That one I definitely agree with you on, but that's an outlier/history. The game has changed a lot since and we really don't see anything like that these days, and people still use the terms when someone receives more 'typical' hits that go awry, like in this case.

I can't imagine people actually think TJ was 'trying' to hit BB in the head?

Agreed.

The odd dirty play / dirty player gets so magnified now. For better and worse.

 

[crazychimp]

I really hope Boeser is okay poor guy has dealt with so much this is just another blow.

 

[BigKing]

He got more head than body. Primary point of contact was head with the body in the follow through

Believe I said that he "still got a lot of body", which he did. This wasn't one of those blindside specials where it is entirely shoulder to jaw. If it wasn't clear, I was not arguing against a suspension.

He concussed Zub earlier in the season.

Jeannot needs to stop playing like a POS.

The hit on Zub is one of the best hits you'll see all season. He was on the trolley tracks staring down at the puck and got run over. Glided in to the hit and everything. That one is 100% on Zub. Jeannot was probably surprised he never saw him since he skated straight at him.

I don't want to sift through 10 pages but do people actually think this hit was clean?

 

[Sol]

If he exploded, I'd say a suspension would be redundant anyway.

Lmfaooo finally a good joke on HF

 

[winnipegger]

5+ games. Scott Stevens would be proud.

No, contact with the head does not make a hit illegal. Considering that most of the force of the hit went through Boeser’s body, the head was not the main point of contact. Maybe I am Einstein considering I appear to be the only one who read a rule book around here.


Not sure what you were going for here, but you missed.

3 games buddy give your head a shake you were and are wrong.

Very few. The overwhelming majority watched the clip with their eyes open

Yeah DoPS is definitely always right

 

[KrisLetAngry]

3 games.

Makes sense reckless play.

 

[Gregor Samsa]

Hit him in the head so hard he knocked the “o” out of his first name

 

[sting101]

Yeah DoPS is definitely always right

In this case they were 100%.

Blind side hit to head
Defenseless player without puck
Wreckless

Pretty much an easy layup...take the loss .

you were wrong...it happens

 

[geebster]

Yeah DoPS is definitely always right

Watch the video they put out, they go through the rule line by line and show how it applies. You seem to still be confused by it and I think it could be educational for you.

 

[M2Beezy]

Probably get 3 games

Thats my guess too

 

[TheDawnOfANewTage]

Yeah DoPS is definitely always right

I did a poll, and 70%+ said the DoPS was too lenient. Swing and a miss.

 

[TooManyHumans]

Terrible hit. It's stupid but not surprising that some would want to defend this sort of hit. He could have easily lit him up with an actual body hit.

In this case they were 100%.

I think it's just "reckless".

This is Wreckless(Eric).

 

[Nikolajs Sillers]

I need to contact Garry/ NHLPA about suspensions. He needs to be suspended three games against Canucks not other teams. Why they can't figure it out? I wanted to make thread long time ago about it but my English is not good enough for that. .

this was pretty much my take at the time watching the game.

3 games is a bit soft as usual by Parros. The concussion lawsuits will one day cite these non 5-10 game suspensions as non concern for player safety.

It’s not just the league though, the NHLPA through the CBA have a huge say on how the structure works for giving out suspensions.
