Zegras headshots Rasmussen. Will have a hearing today 02/24 - three game suspension

[saska sault]

Not a huge Zegras fan, but using Ceci vs. Zegras is ridiculous. Zegras is one point behind Ceci with 26 less games played. Don't know if I'd hang my hat on that particular stat. Maybe find someone else that makes a bit more sense to mock Zegras' scoring this season.

Not many to compare to.... Yanni Gourde, Jiri Kulich, Craig smith if sample size used is this season and position.

 

[Coach Reggie Dunlop]

Were there? Most seemed to agree he would be suspended?

When it first happened there were about 3-4 ducks fans saying I was being too homer for saying this was a multi game suspension worthy hit.

Yay!

3-4, damn. Quite a few.

 

[McDonald19]

1-2 seemed appropriate for a first time offender, but we never know what DOPS is going to do. So inconsistent.

I agree, it is absolutely ridiculous that this "offensive" player that makes almost 6 million bucks is being outscored by Cody Ceci, absolutely ridiculous.

This is the last time I'll bring it up,it's getting redundant at this point, Mulletboy got his suspension, time to move on.

 

[LarKing]

Idno what it is but i swear every single time i watch the wings i see this guy get his doors blown off

He's like bad luck Brian this season. Just keeps being on the other end of dirty plays.

Honestly, I wish he were under others players' skins enough for that to be the reason, but I doubt that's the case with how soft he generally plays

 

[LeighDx59]

Doubtful… Rasmussen don’t want that smoke

They had 20+ mins and a 4-1 lead to do something, against an anemic scoring ducks team. No one did anything.

Its cute you think Zegras would actually fight even if Rasmussen went after him. Dude would totally hide behind the referees.

I meant more that from the portion of the game I saw the refs did a terrible job controlling the game. Given the style the Ducks play and the players on their team, it shouldn't be surprising that the other team ends up with more power plays on any given night.

Its amazing that Ducks fans dont realize this. I guess its easier to cry foul and claim the NHL is out to get them.

To quote Zegras... "No way....no way.... no way.... no way..."

Given how late it was, and how obvious of a headshot it was, I thought he shouldve gotten a few more games but I guess I should just be happy they actually suspended him.

Probably just a heat of the moment thing? I don’t think any Ducks fans are saying that today or hours after the game


Anyway, not arguing with you, just wanted to make an observational call

 

[CrazyDuck4u]

Zegras probably doesnt get suspended if Ras is not hurt and missing time.. ITs how its always going to be

 

[Terry Yake]

I cannot believe there were ducks fans in this thread downplaying this hit. Was delusional homerism. I even thought he’d only get 2 because it was his first offense. Shows you how bad that type of hit is.

where did you see ducks fans downplaying the hit? every ducks fans i've seen in here has agreed that it was a suspendable offense

Ras doesn’t get hurt if Zegras doesn’t throw a blatant dirty headshot!

 

[ohcomeonref]

It's a shame they don't play each other again this season

Not really, the Wings are flaccid

...funny how little PoS' like Zegras almost NEVER try this bullshyte on players that play for a team with a Nuclear Option (Deslaurier, Xhekaj, Rempe, Olivier, Reaves, etc) on the bench...it's almost like there is an on-ice detterent for that behavior...things that make ya go "Hmmmm"...

Because he almost never does shit like this is why.

Nah I disagree.

Yeah injuries play a role in deciding supplemental discipline but that hit was getting at least a game even if Ras popped back up.

Nasty hit, very little body contact.

 

[The Crypto Guy]

Yea that was a bad hit.

 

[Junohockeyfan]

Its comical zegs was emphatically saying “no way” after the hit. Unless he was saying no way in response to “that was clean eh?”.

Nobody went after him... lol come on man get a grip.

Redwings hid from zegras the rest of the game... he put the fear of god in em

 

[MXD]

I thought he'd be getting 2 due to no prior discipline whatsoever as far as I know.

 

[Coffee]

He actually has gotten fined for slashes in the past, when he gets mad he can get careless with his stick, but I never seen him throw a hit like this tbh

 

[GMR]

Rasmussen needs to man up and defend himself.

If I were him and were 6’6, both Kucherov and Zegras would have season ending surgeries by now after my retaliation.

 

[aylib]

buddy admiring his bank pass

lmao @ 5 games

Go hide in the corner

 

[Dingo]

Don't know.. doesn't seem malicious. Seems more like the big guy leaned far down and dropped his shoulder and got caught puck watching while Zegras was trying to go for the shoulder. But then again with dopes at dops.. who knows. Should def have been a penalty tho.

crazy pills

 

[ArGarBarGar]

If they actually cared about player safety that number would start at 5.

 

[Dotter]

Hope Ras is okay.

Zegras can go eat a turd.
