GDT: ECQF: (Game 3 ) Rangers @ Capitals / 7 ET / TNT

It's a head shot. Should've been penalized more than it was. It wasn't. We move on, But stop pretending it wasn't what it was.

 

[Holocene]

Whats funny is the exact same thing is being said on the Canes board.

both teams are just playing efficiently imo doing exactly as much as they need to win

Timing of photo....elbow hit first....stop watching on your phone

There's your initial contact. Face into upper arm. Panel at intermission all saying the hit is fine. Refs and league all determined 'interference' but nothing egregious. But keep going on about how right you are.

Literally RIGHT before contact that elbow is down and tucked.

 

[The Crypto Guy]

Entire TNT panel all agreed with was a clean hit. Go to bed “fans” who dont understand hockey.

 

[Saitama]

I bet these guys are like "hell yeah!" after seeing someone post about hockey is the toughest sport and then absolutely in tears when a good hit is laid against their player.

Carolina is going to sweep the Rangers if they don’t step up, Rangers look so average even against the worst team in the entire playoffs

 

[Ezekial]

Still defending headshots smh my head

 

[hockey4sale]

It was late hit to the head, Rangers are lucky it was just 2min

 

[NoVaCapsFan]

Dirty hits, injured players x 2. Hope Caps win anyway. Or if not, hope Rempe gets what is coming. Rempe won’t fight Wilson. p***y.

 

[crab]

Haha Rempe is scared.

 

[max21]

Damn Rempe them gloves cemented on

 

[Ezekial]

Typing as though you've taken a head shot or two. Are you okay? Should you be staying away from screens for a while?

Yea, I'm fine. Never been on the ice with Rempe so my head is fine.

 

[LOFIN]

Haha Rempe is scared.

All due respect to Tom Wilson, who is a tough SOB, Rempe has gone up against better, stronger and meaner fighters than him. I doubt he's scared.

 

[Hivemind]

The main boards has repeatedly gone after Wilson for hits identical to Rempe's. Both players (and anyone else) should be suspended for those kind of headshots. Doesn't matter if you're the taller player, its your responsibility to avoid the headshot.

 

[5cotland]

Haha Rempe is scared.

Rempe is smart and luring Wilson in.

 

[Il Stugotz]

Kinda funny that a veteran like Wilson can’t figure out how to goad Rempe into a fight

 

[LaffyTaffy13]

Dirty hits, injured players x 2. Hope Caps win anyway. Or if not, hope Rempe gets what is coming. Rempe won’t fight Wilson. p***y.

Why would rempe fight a plug and spend 5 mins in the box when he actually scores and can nuke more dmen (legally)

 

[Sheppy]

Wilson sucks at fighting.

 

[NoVaCapsFan]

Wilson sucks at fighting.

He’s horrifying. Maybe Panarin will give him a go.

 

[nothingbeatshockey]

Great save by Shesterkin. Hurts to see any man doing the splits like that.

 

[Summer Rose]

Wow, how did Washington not score there?

 

[5cotland]

Igor

Rempe is smart and luring Wilson in.

If he was smarter, he would have accepted the fight. Taking Wilson away from the Capitals for 5 minutes is more impact than taking Rempe away from the Rangers.

 

[Dolemite]

That SHG sums up Caps potential in the playoffs.

Absolutely pathetic.

 

[5cotland]

If he was smarter, he would have accepted the fight. Taking Wilson away from the Capitals for 5 minutes is more impact than taking Rempe away from the Rangers.

But we are winning. We are frustrating the Caps. We dont need the fight to boost us. Rempe is frustrating Wilson and will fight when necessary.

Right now, there is no benefit to NYR for Rempe to fight right now.
