Ukranian hockey and an UGLY incident

[ckg927]

It has to do with a Black player(from Canada); he's a former Arizona Coyotes prospect who's now playing in the Ukranian Hockey League. Yesterday, he was subjected to an UGLY incident during a game. I won't mention it here; I'll let the link do the talking....

lmao the offending player's reasoning and apology is complete horseshit.

Good freaking lord is that beyond reprehensible.

The punishment is a joke

Why is it so difficult for some people not to be racist?

Lets cancel this player.

Well, some people are dumb enough to think everyone else is wrong.

Looking at the video, I feel like one of the black player teammate that was on the ice fighting him would have been appropriate for everyone (including Deniskin that would have prefered it I think).

Because there are a ton of really stupid people in this world that were taught to be racist by other really stupid people.

Racism at its core is fueled by idiocy and ignorance.

You can't put a label on a person without knowing him well enough. Even good ppl do mistakes. Dumb are those who generalize ppl after a single mistake.

Can’t wait to see how people defend this

See above lol

Time for Luc Tardif to step in.

I just did, and will continue to label racists as dumb. I grew up around plenty of them in southeastern Ohio. They're dumb.

They're not smart enough to use critical thinking. That's why they're racist.

No one will forget you now Andrey.

 

[llamateizer]

good to see some kind of punishment.

There are plenty of good ppl who don't use critical thinking, who aren't racist.

We live in a world where people are raped and murdered by the hour (or maybe minute) and people trying to act shocked and appalled that someone could say or mime something stupid like it's unfathomable.

Says the guy thats been suspended multilple times for actually putting others careers at risk.

So he should just shut up and skate rather than condemn racism. Real smart take there.

What do you think Andrey deserves as punishment?

 

[abo9]

How's that suspension compared to other suspensions in that league? Is that fine a lot of money in Ukraine?

By NHL standards, 3 games is usually an illegal move, but nothing crazy serious
13 games however, is usually a super dangerous and intentional move. To suspend a guy without history for 13 games, he needs to almost kill his victim.

Yes someone that can't control their own ignorant impulses and puts others at risk should shut the f*** up.

IDK something like a 20 game suspension probably.

Right so even when Kadris right hes wrong cause he hit someone late?

I don't really care how you try to spin it. I believe in accountability and consequences if you don't then you do you.

Not spinning anything. According to you Kadris opinion is invalid on racism due to hockey related suspension which he served.
