Confirmed with Link: Kadri Suspended for the Remainder of the First Round

[OppositeLocK]

okay. and if he does something stupid and gets himself suspended vs that team, then what?
you can't be tough, sitting in the pressbox.
you can't be the best person on the ice, if you are sitting in the pressbox.
and quite frankly, i wonder how "forgiving" people would be if this was 3-5 games in the cup final and not the first round. because it's easy to be all "Oh, yah well. you know. it happens." but if it's the cup final, is it "well Naz was tough. huzzah?"

I dunno, it's hockey? Eject him from the game.

Game is becoming cream puff soft.

For sure, Kadri is the perfect amount of sandpaper and skill in today's NHL.

Uh no. I think its pretty clear he doesnt know his limits.

 

[Notsince67]

Well, he ain't going to get any points sitting in the press box. Great, he has 2 points in 2 games, now he is sitting out during the biggest games of the season. Shanny and Co have to have a real mature talk with him before he plays another game again.

Yeah....like knock Debrusks head off if you are going to get suspended

 

[Gary Nylund]

He addresses an are the the leafs have no depth in. Toughness. Was the best person on the ice last game and if the leafs advance to play tougher teams, you will understand why having a player like him is more important than having a Nylander

What good is having him on the payroll when he can't help us on the ice?

I ****ing hate Kadri for this.

He left us in this exact same hole last year and had he been in the lineup who knows what would've happened. And now he ****ing does it again.

Selfish piece of ****.

Seek help.

 

[JayfromNB1219]

I don think you understand. Hes one of the most penalized players in the league. He keeps getting larger suspensions because he doesnt learn.

I hear you...there are way worse guys that get away with it though (see Brad Marchand as an example) so like I said if it was called evenly through the league regardless of the time of year I would be 100% on your side of the argument...as the league is now though I just can’t agree

 

[Leafidelity]

Lets just be lucky Kadri is allowed back in the NHL. What a monster!

 

[Peace Frog]

What Kadri did was indefensible and im 100% on board with the suspension.

Im sick and tired of seeing headshots. I dont care about the context of them.

I don’t have a problem with the suspension. I don’t want to see stuff like that either. However, one player getting a $5000 fine and the other getting the remainder of a series, just doesn’t fly with me. Just saying.

 

[OppositeLocK]

Lol @ the dumb ****s blaming Kadri for this.

He did exactly what was needed. The refs were a ****ing joke. If anyone is to blame its the ****ing refs.

Yeah seriously, stood up for a teammate. That's who I'd want to be playing with.

A couple suicides by guys with concussion issues will make a league try and limit concussions.

 

[DanM]

I just lit some candles and prayed that somebody lights up that piece of shit DeBrusk!

 

[Jimmy Firecracker]

Out of sight out of mind until the next series should we make it. Bye Naz. See you in two weeks hopefully.

 

[Warden of the North]

Yeah seriously, stood up for a teammate. That's who I'd want to be playing with.

Hes not playing. Thats the point. He could have dropped the gloves and thrown a few punches. No suspension then.

 

[hotpaws]

So was that 4 games?

4 games , lol , 0 games and i don't remember if he even got a 2 min minor

anyway , strange decision but it could have been worse with his track record

Leafs fans don’t deserve a good team. Constantly trashing our elite talents and now forming a lynch mob against kadri instead of understanding what really happened

Everyone is aware of the risks before they sign up. That's why they get paid millions upon millions.

Don't like the game, don't watch/play/etc.

MMA is not for me but you don't see me trying to change its brutality.

But you can't just play to win the battle but lose the war.

how many mature talks do they have to have with him?
Honestly, if I were dubas, the thought in my head would be/should be this.

If it's Game ___ in the Cup Final, and we're facing a team, and they are putting a bee in Kadri's bonnet, do I trust him not do something reckless?

because Naz can say anything he wants. (He's said several times even leading up to this series he can't be stupid) and he lasted a whole 8.5 periods before doing the exact same stupid stunt), the question do you believe/trust him?

the answer is no. trade him and get the toughness/sandpaper people want, who has sense in their head and isn't reckless and dirty.

Hindsight is always 20/20.

Sometimes you just gotta lay it down.

If they treat it like this, the game will die. Hence why they're not treating it the same way you would.

I blame the NHL.

 

[Alerion]

But you can't just play to win the battle but lose the war.

What's better, stand up for a teammate and miss the remainder of the series, or choose your battles wisely and play the entire series? Seems pretty clear.

Plus potential lawsuits, plus rising insurance costs. Like or not, the old days are gone forever

 

[The List Of Jericho]

Joke suspension

 

[Lynk]

Seek help.

I'm good, pal.

 

[Suntouchable13]

I blame the NHL.

Kadri is responsible for Kadri. You are responsible for your own actions.
