Need another angle. Looks like a shoulder to chest from the angle in the GIF, but my Flames fan buddy is determined that it was head to shoulder. He also needs a new team, but I digress.
Welcome to hockey? Hahaha
I guess you are for removing all hitting from the sport as well. Move on!
Just because a hit is using the shoulder doesn’t mean it’s clean. The context is what matters.Illegal play, clean hit.
No headshot, no slew foot, no malice in the hit. The play itself was illegal, but it wasn't a dirty hit.Just because a hit is using the shoulder doesn’t mean it’s clean. The context is what matters.
because it was a heavy hit on a rookie in their first shift who didnt have the puck so wasnt braced for a hit from a 6’5 monster
What's Hamonic thinking? And Gudbranson was +3 with an assist? Awesome night for him.
Gudbranson is a terrible defenseman but at least he can fight. For his sake he better hope Prout isn't in the lineup on Saturday.
Prout is pretty much a water boy. The only reason why he’s slightly relevant is because he floored Lucic that one time.
As for the other Prout comment - yeah.....Prout can beat up Gudbranson. I’ll give him that much. Won’t be a blow out though. Guds will give him everything he can handle. More importantly, Guds is going to stick up for the kids and no one is going to take liberties with Pettersson, Boeser, etc., as result.
Are people posting here watching the entire play? From the release of the pass from the Dman?good hit that was a bit early but Dube needs to be more aware and the one who made that pass should feel bad
Thanks, I appreciate it.There's a technical term for people who don't like Travis Hamonic, and that term is "asshat". Seriously, he is one of the absolute greatest guys in the whole league, I hope Gudbranson has a run in with Ross the Boss when he visits Brooklyn and gets his clock cleaned.

Worth a 2 min call considering he didn't play the puck, but fine otherwise. Answered when called upon and handled business.
Also: Do the Flames not have anyone that's like. Less important to their team than Hamonic to go out and make that challenge?

That doesn’t make it clean.
One of the things about hitting an unsuspecting player, who isn’t eligible to be hit, is they are vulnerable. As in, unprepared and in no position to defend themselves.
What you’re saying is that it could have been even worse, but that wasn’t clean.
Edit: I see Spawn just made the exact same point.
Never once said that. But clearly I see it differently, and I'm not going to change any opinions, nor am I looking to. So I'll leave it where it's at.
I don't care, I'm going to bed.I notice you didn’t address the fact it was a hit on an unsuspecting player.
