Scheifele suspended 4 Games

[TannedBum]

This is the Jets forum thread, coming here to argue with Jets fans is trolling.

I like the explanation from parros. I read many winnipeg poster fans being really outraged. I mean. They shouldnt play hockey to react like that. . Scheiffle know more anybody else that evans was going to score, even if he was skating as fast than mcdavid. He knew it. He just wanted to hurt a guy. Simple like that.

Yeah that's exactly what I've been saying today, people just can't be objective. As a martial artist I always respect the athlete first, fanboyism second. If say Suzuki did this to Wheeler I'd be the first one to bash on Suzuki for the play. Defending this and then act like a victim because the NHL suspended the guy is so beyond stupid I can't even understand

Flash back ten years when the same crowd of Bruins fans vehemently defended Chara's hit on Max as 'strong hockey play' but a few months later were beside themselves over Aaron Rome's hit on Horton.

You are not alone...I got kicked off the Jets board... frankly, I don't give a hoot!!

Strange how those posters have access to the exact same footage and come to a completely different conclusion from almost everyone outside of Manitoba.
Anyway, NHL has responded. Scheifele out until game 6 if there is one.

 

[Andrei79]

Stéphane Auger called this hit one of the most violent he's seen.

Same here, can't remember a player going 200 feet and specifically targeting a player that way.

I never go on the main board or opposing teams boards. I’m far too opinionated.

The temptation is there, but I resist. I won't even go read it.

What a clown.

LMAO nice profile picture

I'm tempted to change mine to Schiefeles coke face for now

I'm tempted to change mine to Schiefeles coke face too

Do it! I was going to suggest Flanders avatars for all for the rest of the series, but mixing and matching Flanders with that face would be awesome too! Regardless, start the trend!

Technically, team boards are safe spaces. Montreal board is same. You just don't experience it because it's your safe space.

 

[Habs Icing]

Huh? Dom has the public relations team focused on game two? Can they even skate?

 

[Habano]

A couple of jets fans are saying they'll never watch the NHL again

We better be careful because the NHL might fold if they lose the viewership of a couple of Cleetuses (or is it Cleeti) from bumf*** Manitoba

Don’t ask how I know this but the PR Director is starting in net game 2

First we cause leaf fans to sya they're done now the Jets too. We single handedly destroying nhk viewership.

LOL @ him using the defense of "I was trying to make a play on the puck" when he pulls his stick away and is clearly arming himself for a hit

That was the most striking thing about the main clip on the NHL video... as he can see he will be too late to stop Evans from scoring, long before he gets to Evans he is lining Evans up for the biggest hit he can possibly throw.

 

[Canadiens Ghost]

When was the last time the NHL suspended a star player hitting a 4th line player for so many games? Can't remember. Shows you even the NHL thought this was a vicious predatory hit. A rare thing.

Shhh... Don’t let the Leafs know. They’ll try to pluck him up to backup their Zamboni Goalie.

Reading the Jets board is so entertaining. There is more whine than a vineyard!

 

[Dach Vader]

4 games is appropriate and meaningful.

Glad they made an example of him. He crossed the line and deserves to sit.

Habs in 4

Completely nonsensical, especially when you see them complaining on their forum that Perry didn't receive a suspension for the Tavares incident. Dude are you real?? You say Perry should've been suspended for an ACCIDENT and then you go around and zigzag everything to defend Scheifele for what he did? How can anybody take this seriously is the question

 

[OnceWasNot]

Right on the mark of what he deserves as a first time offender making a reckless and unnecessary play that resulted in a serious injury. League got it right.

 

[Lucky Luke]

Now it's time to make them pay.

They’ve spent that past 24 hours convincing themselves that Mark did nothing wrong. Now that the suspension has been handed down, it must be a cOnsPirAcy!!!! Out of his 15 year career, Parros played 22 games with the Habs! 7 years ago! He’s practically still on their payroll!!

They believe the Habs media whined so vociferously that the NHL DOPS bent to the pressure. Ergo, they are whining about the media's whining. Which is kinda ironic and funny!
