GDT: WCQF - Game #3 Avs in Nashville @2:30pm MT| 4:30 ET|10:30 EET (Uncle Risto) | 3:30 ICT (Kingslayer)

Clearly not intentional, kuemper was moving slightly forward as well trying to paddle the puck…. Very unfortunate, can only hope for the best for him.

They have the experience and leadership to regroup from that in the intermission.

Hopefully its just a poke in the eye and he's back never period. If not, I trust Frankie to hold it down.

I dont even care if he's back in this game as long as it's not a serious eye injury and he can come back next game or following game. Avs can still beat Nashville with Francouz

Didn't look great but we'll see how it goes. MacKinnon took a stick right to the eye against the Stars the other year, which looked like a season ender, and he was back the next game.

100% x 100

I think the player felt his stick immobilized, assumed the goalie grabbed it and pushed to make him let go

What did Brendan Gallagher have to say about it?

lol. No kids where watching other then my own who actually did it. Man, I’m telling you. It hurt so so bad. My eye was watering for a bit but was okay soon enough. That said, I’m not an elite athlete that depends on my vision.

Or am I ?

 

[ASmileyFace]

I just hope Kuemper is okay.

 

[SirLoinOfCloth]

This place. Good lord.

 

[wayninja]

I doubt it was intentional, but not even a penalty is ridiculous

Three years ago...

Burakovsky could probably play an entire game with something covering his face with no change in performance.

 

[Mitchgou]

He just got scared i am sure he will be ok.

 

[Garavar]

This is where refs now need to call everything to Preds to make up. It's high stick and goalie interference

 

[Metallo]

What the f*** is 92 doing with his stick?

 

[Lando929292]

That's bullshit f*** Johansson go after him

 

[LOFIN]

Frankie, baby.

I have full confidence in him. Maybe don't give up 3-on-1's though. Just a suggestion.

This team should be good enough to win with Frankie. He's a good backup, and if you have a great team you win with good backups as well.

 

[Miri]

f***ing shit is this :-(
Hope he is ok. I trust Francouz, but still better have 2 good goalies than one. Imagine even Francouz went down and we would be stuck with third string goalie - again. Now that would be disaster.

 

[Heyduke]

He's clearly pushing with his hands. You can't do that without knowing that you're doing it.

This is exactly what I think

 

[TheGrimReaper]

these broadcasters should be in a chest with the rest of the tools

 

[Vaslof]

That was super fluky. I hate Ry Jo but doubt he did that on purpose. Just real bad timing. Battle of the back up goalies now.

I think he pushed him with the stick on purpose, but probably didn't intend to go through the cage.

 

[Shinjuku Calling]

Francouz is not good enough. Not even close.

 

[CharlesPuck]

Beat Nashville with Frankie. Sure.

Win the Cup with Frankie. Idk.

 

[AvsWraith]

Bet elbow to Makar's head was accidental to...

The normal reflex is to pull on your stick not push.
