Love how he tries to say he didn't pull his jersey, even though he has a "fist full." So what do you call it when you have a handful of jersey, move your arm back and draw the jersey to you?
so of course it is broken down frame by frame, but he basically said that they reason for a non suspenssion was 1)fowler was stoping/changing direction just before hit 2)stoll didnt use his forearm to fowlers head and 3)it "appeared" as if stoll was also trying to stop.....he did note that he was chasing him from behind and DID grab ahold of his jersey, but DID NOT say stoll used jersey as "leverage" to stand him up or twist him....said it should have been a boarding call but thats not what they do...
so why in all these OTHER video's are the fact of injury/non-injury and player history even mentioned AT ALL? and is it OK to grab a guys jersey when hitting from behind? or is hitting from behind at all OK?.....whats the point of "player safety" if your trying to come up in your own mind what the hell a player was thinking or doing?
PL3 needs to be called up next Kings game and sent after Stoll.
Not Bertuzzi-level, but enough to get a suspension and send a message to both Stoll and Shanny.
Many of you probably won't agree of promoting pre-meditated violence on ice, but hey we need to protect our own players.
Boarding with head contact to the boards caused by Stoll. Isn't that cause for suspension? And if you factor in that Fowler was not to be seen thereafter has no concern on Stoll's decision. When you include Stoll's previous infraction, how do you not review it under that microscope? blah
About what? IR? I saw it on Ducks roster today.
Dubinski got a $10,000 fine for his hit on Scuderi. What a ****ing joke
Fowler has been placed on IR.
this is why i call BS and you throw in the duby hit aswell and im not going conspiracy, but i am saying there is a agenda...i would ask shannahan this...is boarding a suspendable play? was the player hurt? could the player who made the hit, prevented it? what is the point of "player safety"?....my problem isnt just this hit on fowler, its that they try to make these assumptions about intent or come up with these STUPID justifications to try and either justify or discredit a hit (i.e. intent) by slowing it down frame by frame....IMO "player safety" is black and white, but this stupid leauge has not only made it grey, but try to justify/govern these things with absolutely ZERO consistancy....i mean how else do you explain why sometimes a guys history matters and sometimes it doesnt, or how do some guys get the benefit of the doubt and some dont?Boarding with head contact to the boards caused by Stoll.
