Nasty Spear by Hedman

[Kelly]

Gross.

No need for those type of plays.

 

[FreeBobbyFarnham]

I've never cared for him ever since he pasted Sid's head into the glass what...two days after the Steckel hit during the 2011 Winter Classic??

It's not even that. When things don't go his way he goons it up with cheapshots. I remember him slashing someone late in the game, but can't remember who it was against.

 

[SladeWilson23]

Bad play, but whatever.

You think Hedman is a goon and not Malkin?

Literally why he was left off the top 100 list by the NHL and why he didn't win the Conn Smyth last year. He couldn't buy a vote from people associated with the league.

 

[TheBeastCoast]

I think these should be dealt with more severely but they don't. Hedman will maybe end up with a fine.

How is Malkin a goon?

 

[Subbanned]

Based on precedent this will be a fine but it's such a little b*&@! move you'd want it to start being worth of a suspension one day. Like honestly..

 

[Sheppy]

I can’t stand when men do this to other men. f***ing gutless.

 

[Azathoth]

Crosby approves this thread.

 

[Edmonton East]

League keeps letting this shit go year after year.

This head contact only gets a fine. Every time.

 

[Big Poppa Pump]

"Blatant speer" my ass.

1. What the hell is a speer?
2. That's not even a spear.

 

[Filthy Dangles]

2 minutes, missed call based on score and previous calls.

Definitely not suspendable like some are implying

 

[Steazy Doo]

How is Malkin a goon?

The hits on Staal and Simmonds come to mind. General douchebaggery with the stick like in this scenario. Obviously not on Sids level of crotch shots though

 

[CantLoseWithMatthews]

what a pathetic move

 

[Pi]

It will be a fine of 2500$ which will give Hedman nightmares. That’s a LOT of money for a millionaire.

 

[mouser]

Has anyone been suspended for this before? How many?

That’s what I’m wondering. I don’t think there’s any doubt this was an intentional spear by Hedman.

 

[Freudian]

The league already established they aren't going to suspend for that by not doing anything about Lucic.

Inb4 someone says "but Crosby..."

That's the reason, huh, kiddo?

 

[Kamiccolo]

If Kadri got 3 games for hitting a guy who fell a fraction of a second before this is worth at least 4.

He was falling down when his stick hit Staal and tbh I don't remember the Simmonds one probably was a very long time ago.

 

[Classic Devil]

What a coward.

 

[Steazy Doo]

What do you think it is? Just not good enough?

Nor on the level of driving a guy's face into the glass...that's so 2011.
