He usually does. Pre-season results doesn't matter. Sending a message that our top players are out of reach for cheap shots matter.

You think Greig on Dach was a "cheapshot"? Yikes. It was a 2 min interference penalty. Dach's head snapback dive was as bad as Stützle's.

If interfering with Kirby Dack is a "cheapshot on a top player" you're in a world of trouble. On the one hand, you think it was a cheapshot. On the other hand, you think Dach is a top player.

I don't know which is funnier.

We shall see. So far he's cost his team 4 PP goals in 2 games with his antics.
He's got 2 seasons under his belt and never went out of line when it mattered. I can tell you one thing though, other teams are taking notice and players will think twice before doing something stupid against this team.

The bitterness is finally coming out. Laine has nothing to do with this thread. And FYI, Laine will be fine, I do agree with you there
It has everything to do with it you just have 0 self awareness. You're crying and complaining like a child in one thread about Laine. Now in another one you're telling Stutzle to put a bandaid on it when he leaves a game from a headshot which a guy got 5 and a game. Grow up Peter pan.

I keep hearing this, but his drubbing of Pare didn't stop Greig from hitting Dach and it didn't stop Ottawa from coming back in the game and winning.

I certainly took note of Xhekaj hiding from Brady Tkachuk so I don't think this vaunted deterrence you are talking about actually exists.

The league is also certainly taking notice and the amount of rope he has has been reduced to zero.

Depends on your definition of cheap shot. If Xhekaj on Stutzle was a cheap shot then yes, Grieg on Dach was also a cheap shot.

I don't think either was a cheapshot, which is why it's so funny how the entire Habs team (and seemingly fanbase) melted down after a 2 minute interference penalty.

"Targeting a top player!!! We must avenge!!!!"

Did you hear Struble's media? Really embarassing.

Rinse, repeat... What was this about plugs hitting Stars in preseason some people were so upset about a couple of days ago?

This guy needs to be tossed from the league, no idea where the line is on a consistent basis.

Ridley Greig target the head of Dach earlier in the game. I mean, the answer is : you want to hurt our best player (laine, Dach). We will hurt yours. Simple as that

To stop all this crap in the preseason all fins and suspension should be double.

All three plays were retaliatory plays. Struble's hit was also somewhat late. Arber delivered a very clean hit, though delivered late. Dach explicitly targeted a player after the puck changed position to fight him.

All three plays were retaliatory events away from the puck.

What you are suggesting is a slippery slope.

I’ve never said all retaliatory plays. Never once called on that. There’s specific reason the Xhekaj hit is the focus here. The slippery slope is having players police themselves. We seen it over and over.
