LGR4GM Posted April 28, 2015 Report Posted April 28, 2015 Here is the video explanation if you are interested. NHL Player Safety @NHLPlayerSafety 11m11 minutes ago Detroit's Niklas Kronwall has been suspended one game for charging Tampa Bay's Nikita Kucherov. Video: http://ow.ly/2bsGI3 Quote
darksabre Posted April 28, 2015 Report Posted April 28, 2015 I'm actually kind of annoyed. There's legitimately no precedent for suspending a player in the playoffs for that kind of hit. I don't even know how they managed to come to this conclusion at just this moment. Quote

I don't even know how they managed to come to this conclusion at just this moment. it's like a catch in the NFL... I don't what's legal anymore. That said I think all hits like that one should be suspended. Left his feet, principle contact is the head, but whatever. Quote

Left his feet, principle contact is the head, but whatever. I agree. But it's sure weird that they decide to wait until game 7 of the playoffs to finally punish Kronwall for doing what he's been doing his entire career. Quote

I don't even know how they managed to come to this conclusion at just this moment. Create precedent. This is a good thing. We all know this league needs to start enforcing the damn rules... Can't sit on your hands and hope that somebody got it right a year ago. Start now. Quote
TrueBlueGED Posted April 28, 2015 Report Posted April 28, 2015 I'm legitimately shocked. Happy, but shocked. Quote
Stoner Posted April 29, 2015 Report Posted April 29, 2015 I'm legitimately shocked. Happy, but shocked. Me too. Not sure they had any choice on this one. Brutal. Quote
Eleven Posted April 29, 2015 Report Posted April 29, 2015 I agree. But it's sure weird that they decide to wait until game 7 of the playoffs to finally punish Kronwall for doing what he's been doing his entire career. Watch the end of the video. The league did a great job of contrasting this hit to other Kronwall hits. I think they finally got something right. Wow. Quote
darksabre Posted April 29, 2015 Report Posted April 29, 2015 Watch the end of the video. The league did a great job of contrasting this hit to other Kronwall hits. I think they finally got something right. Wow. Fortunately we can count on them completely messing this up going forward. Quote
SwampD Posted April 29, 2015 Report Posted April 29, 2015 (edited) Watch the end of the video. The league did a great job of contrasting this hit to other Kronwall hits. I think they finally got something right. Wow. Well, at least two of them. He jumps into his hits way more often than he doesn't. Edited April 29, 2015 by SumpfV Quote
inkman Posted April 29, 2015 Report Posted April 29, 2015 it's like a catch in the NFL... I don't what's legal anymore. Yeah I lost my shizz after the dez Bryant non catch vs green Bay. Not because I thought he caught it but because the whole process is out of control. It's taking away from the game. The more 15 minute reviews to determine "football moves" or "tuck rules" the less I want to watch. Quote
qwksndmonster Posted April 29, 2015 Report Posted April 29, 2015 Fortunately we can count on them completely messing this up going forward. Yup. Quote
darksabre Posted April 29, 2015 Report Posted April 29, 2015 NBC noob just called Kucherov, Zadorov. Quote
Hoss Posted April 29, 2015 Author Report Posted April 29, 2015 NBC noob just called Kucherov, Zadorov. I thought I was crazy for that. Figured it was a mind trick... Quote
LGR4GM Posted April 29, 2015 Report Posted April 29, 2015 and there was a chip in by TB and clear interference. Quote
Randall Flagg Posted April 29, 2015 Report Posted April 29, 2015 Bishop looks scared and there was a chip in by TB and clear interference.It's so sad to see that that is a regular play now. I almost didn't even think about it. Quote
darksabre Posted April 30, 2015 Report Posted April 30, 2015 The Red Wings don't look interested in taking the puck anywhere other than the slot. They're doing everything they can to get there. Quote
WildCard Posted April 30, 2015 Report Posted April 30, 2015 No score at the end of 1? I didn't catch it, was it lack of offense/lack of calls or were there actually chances? Quote
3putt Posted April 30, 2015 Report Posted April 30, 2015 It has been well played. Good chances good saves good clears. Both teams are well disciplined Quote
