Confirmed with Link: Kadri Suspended 3 Games

[Community]

Examples of players INTENTIONALLY running goaltenders:

The problem with players hitting goalies out of the crease is that, for the most part, they are going for the puck and the goalies are letting them come close before passing it to a team-mate/firing it up the boards. The 3rd one you had was of Shaw on Smith, Shaw had his stick down and was trying to hit the puck off Smith's stick. I don't think that was a very dirty or "intentional" as you say.

The Edler on Smith one on the other hand... he didn't have his stick down and he got his arms up.

Shouldn't get more than a game for the hit if any. They need to take into consideration the blown call on the Granlund hit. That was bullcrap and cost us the game. Kessel played like 3 shifts in the third and the turnover was almost immediately following him serving the 5 minute major. As far as I am concerned he has already served a game.

Has Nazem been grounded yet ?

this whole supplemental discipline thing is getting out of control. we have penalties on the ice for a reason. this is goalie interference. it was called as such and kadri served the penalty. end of story.

That no one on Minnesota went after Kadri is pretty sad if you're a Minnesota fan

1-2 games fo the Backstrom hit. Anyone that thinks his hit on Granlund should be a suspension should stop watching hockey.

Agreed. My wife and step-son (neither grew up playing/watching hockey) both thought it was a bad hit, but Granlund had his chin on his chest staring at the puck.

If Kadri is suspended based on that hit, the NHL needs to institute a suspension for players that:

a) give suicide passes
b) play with their head down
c) are named Marchand or Chara

That last one may not be related...

interference? it was headhunting that lead to an injury

basically you're saying suspensions shouldn't exist so long as penalties are doled out? what?

It was in no way headhunting. Give me a break.

 

[Bravid Nonahan]

It wasn't headhunting lmao.

Pretty much how I feel as well.




Also the notion of headhunting is a joke.

Lol seriously? Both players advanced at the same time and the one whose upright collided with the one on the ground. Headhunting. lol.

On that play they didn't really have anyone who could do anything so it's hard to blame them. And the coach said afterwards that they didn't want to turn it into a gongshow in fear that the Leafs might go after one of their good players afterwards. I guess that's what you call deterrence...

Good move by them I guess because they ended up winning in a SO, might not have happened if they go after Kadri and give the Leafs a 4 minute PP in the 3rd

LOL, what a terrible post. His point was obvious, give it a read again.

Seriously, they need to stop punishing every hockey hit with poor results (not this scenario of course, but relevant). Taking real head hunting out of the game is one thing, but every time an accidental play occurs where someone gets injured they seem to be throwing out the book like its even possible to remove that from the game. This is hockey, you can't remove head injuries from the game.

Kadri wearing green jersey as an extra in practise...not a good sign. #TMLtalk

 

[Leafs at Knight]

Wearing a green jersey ? Yea he's gone, just gotta see for how long.

 

[TootooTrain]

what does it mean

It means either they know he was suspended, or they haven't found out yet and are testing new lines incase he is.
