Imagine someone has a really sharp knife in their hands, like, an 8-inch blade. And they push you hard in the chest with it. No, they push your son or daughter hard in the chest with it, sideways.
No big deal right? No danger there. They were wearing pads lol.
What past punishments were for past misdeeds from past players means nothing. They're only justifications for your fanatacism.
Hockey players wear very sharp blades on the bottom of their feet. Just fyi.
And yes, you are the minority, even on your own board. That doesn't make you wrong though, it's your opinion that does.
I missed this post originally....I legit laughed out loud.The outrage over Kassian's suspension has come mostly from the toothless Calgarians. I mean, they banned fluoride from their drinking water out of fear of government mind control. I strongly feel that this can't be mentioned enough.
In what world is it ever okay to kick somebody in hockey? Watching that play live, I knew he was going to be in trouble but I thought it was probably accidental. It wasn’t until I watched the replay that I saw the look in his face when he kicked him that it convinced me it was intentional. That wasn’t a normal play and he’s lucky he didn’t seriously injure the guy. What happened is indefensible and shouldn’t be overlooked just because nobody got hurt. Kassian hasn’t been right since he came back from his suspension. Maybe he got a concussion in that game or maybe it’s something else. Either way, he clearly shouldn’t be playing until he gets himself straightened out.stupid play but it wasn't light lol he pushed him with his feet on his padded chest area l0l some people are going crazy over nothing lol
Thanks for digging that up. I was hoping it wouldn't be Kassian!!!@Rodd from Leduc
I remember you asking if there was a record for who had the shortest time between suspensions.
Mark Boroweicki with the Sens went five days between visits to the principal's office in 2018. He was suspended for one game on October 23rd then suspended again October 29th for three games.
Lol not really....In what world is it ever okay to kick somebody in hockey? Watching that play live, I knew he was going to be in trouble but I thought it was probably accidental.

Posts like yours are embarrassing to Oiler fans. It’s hard to call out fans of other teams for supporting dirty hockey players when you won’t do it for your own when it’s deserved. Can’t say I’m surprised to see where you stand on this.

What makes it even worse for him was that he was already under the microscope following the Tkachuk incident. The league dropped the ball with that and were further embarrassed when he was supported by many ex players. They were looking and waiting for him to do something stupid again to feel vindicated. That he gave them their opportunity by kicking another player and that it happened so soon after the last incident likely exceeded their wildest dreams. I think Kassian got off very lightly with 7 games.Yep. Plus that the illogic of whatabout inevitably results in no visible standards as one can always find worse examples or worse punishments. That just demonstrates a continuum of variability. The bottom line being the moment Kass *decided* to kick a player with a skate he was speed dialing the NHL hotline to spin the suspension roulette wheel. The moment this happned it was going to be a multiple game suspension. Why do it?
The what about Chara stuff is just disconnected noise. The two actions have zero similarity. Further, cross checking a player, even in the face, with your stick has never been eliminated from the game and is still part of a lot of hockey play. Kicking somebody with a skate hasn't been an acceptable thing for the last Century of hockey if it ever was..
Few things in hockey are more reviled than kicking somebody with a skate. Kass rang that bell. The reaction in hockey, always, is that kicking an opponent with your skate is completely unacceptable and indefensible.
Yeah he is, his skate wasn’t very far from his neck.Lol not really....
I got nothing for you man. You are hilarious though.Yeah he is, his skate wasn’t very far from his neck.
You are talking about a League that penalizes a player 2 minutes for high sticking an opponent and breaking his jaw and 4 minutes when he clips an opponents lip with his stick and draws blood.
So I wouldnt be so quick to throw around insults and claim that the League uses obvious rational thinking in their decision making.
Besides the actual point of my initial response was to illustrate that intent has very little to do with their decision making.
Some people should just start a go fund me for kick victims.Oh good grief.
Won’t someone think of the children!!!!!Imagine someone has a really sharp knife in their hands, like, an 8-inch blade. And they push you hard in the chest with it. No, they push your son or daughter hard in the chest with it, sideways.

This is probably true, but Kassian JUST got suspended and kind of mocked the whole process, so a disproportionate suspension was coming. The psycho Toronto and Calgary fans on Twitter are a little much though and its unfortunate how much pull they seem to have.I’m honesty quite certain that were this anyone other than Kassian who has his muddled history (which for the record, I’m a big fan of his recovery and maintenance to get back into the league and succeed), this would have blown over super quick, the nhl would have handed a few game suspension, no outcries and outrage for lifetime bans, and the day would have fallen into obscurity.

Any time any call is made, one side of the argument identifies other instances that demonstrate “inconsistency” which indirectly justifies an egregious action as “not that bad”. Every single time a good call is made in a game, fans of the victimized team claim it’s actually not a good call because ____ wasn’t called earlier.
Are there inconsistencies? Yes. Is the game called perfectly? No. But the ****ing guy put his skate in another guy’s chest. Cut the horse ****, do the obvious thing and throw the book at him. **** whatever other **** occurred before or after. A guy kicked another guy with his skate.
