McCabe hit from behind on ZAR

[M2Beezy]

McCabe just absolutely brutally cheap shotted Zack Aston-Reese from behind into the boards. Only 2 minute penalty on the play lol. Gotta think suspension incoming, and probably antics in the game as McCabe will be back

There is no Dana, only ZAR.

 

[POVERTY]

Entered thinking who tf is ZAR

edit: okay it's a standard boarding where the player turns. These hits sucks but nothing to see here. Penalize and move on

 

[Filthy Dangles]

Not too bad. He turned last second.

 

[Devilsfan992]

Meh he turned into it.

Bad hit but he also turned last second, it really wasn’t nearly as malicious as the pens homer commentator made it out to be.

 

[Tom Hanks]

Not too bad. He turned last second.

No matter where he hit him his head was going into the boards. That’s a bad play.

 

[GFY]

The Penguins commentator made it sound a lot worse than it actually was. Reminded him of Lemieux on Draper

 

[bustamente]

Think that Errey broke the record for saying "bad" in a 2 minute span.

 

[Zamuz]

great idea to turn your face towards the boards

Everything from your title to your description of the hit is misleading. Head shot? Hit from behind? I mean technically he hit him in the back, but that’s not a “hit from behind”. McCabe was in front and to the side of Aston-Reese before he quickly turns his back towards him.

 

[Mr Jeff Jimerson]

Never forget.

 

[1972]

He turned when McCabe was 2 feet away.

 

[Washed Up 29YearOld]

it wasn't a brutal headshot he turned at the last second did you even see it

 

[tucker3434]

Turned into it. No big deal.

 

[Hennessy]

I feel misled by the OP.

 

[Gotaf7]

2 mins for boarding is all I see on that play.

 

[HTFN]

Almost like the guy has bad instincts and doesn't know how to protect himself or something.

 

[sufferer]

Derranged take.

 

[Mick Riddleton]

Turned the last second, gotta be aware in that space near the boards, hard for the guy to stop the hit

You should of watched it then. Even the announcers kept going on about how bad it was. Missed call, should have been 5, and we will see how the league deals with this dirty cheap shot

Scoring line winger btw

 

[LongWayDown37]

OP way overblowing it. Definitely not a good hit, definitely a penalty. Nothing more, there is zero malicious intent there.

Should have watched it, you mean.

And you just completely ignored my break down of your hot take— are you still calling it a head shot? Then you don’t know what a head shot is. Hit from behind? Then.. we’ll, you get the point.

And I did watch it. Several times. I’m also assuming you’re watching the Pens feed if you’re putting any weight into what the “announcers” keep saying about it.

Edit- read everyone else’s replies about your ridiculous take

Yeah maybe your right, maybe I did, I read thru the thread and pretty much everyone has said I overreacted. Perhaps I did, I thought it looked much worse at first. I admit I was wrong
