Confirmed with Link: Zach Hyman to have hearing for hit against McAvoy (Upd. 2 GM suspension)

[Cor]

I don’t see how he gets suspended. Similar hits to Wilson and Reaves and neither of them were suspended

In person or phone?

And I don't agree that they were similar.

Hyman's was much later which is the problem.

They were losing 6-2 and he made a dirty late hit. Given the fact he doesn't have a history, I say he gets 1 game. Probably deserves 2 but there's so much consideration put on if he's a repeat defender.

In person or phone?

Phone. So 4 game maximum

 

[Thread The Needle]

Makes sense that it's a phone hearing. It was a pretty obviously late hit.

 

[Duffman955]

Was about half a second late and from the front

That shouldn't be a suspension

Tom Wilson made a blindside hit a player who never had the puck, like a few games after returning from a 14 game suspended.

If he wasn’t suspended for that, Hyman shouldn’t be suspended for this.

I’d have to look at both hits again, but Hyman’s was at worst the same amount of late as Reaves hit.

Also, Kronwall destroyed Matthews from behind into the boards head first and got nothing.

Hyman being suspended would be dumb based on what we’ve seen the past week, but I fully expect it to happen

Hyman to have hearing for actions in Maple Leafs game against Bruins

The Toronto Maple Leafs forward is facing discipline for interference on Boston Bruins defenseman Charlie McAvoy on Saturday.

The incident occurred at 9:53 of the third period of Boston's 6-3 win at TD Garden. Hyman received a major penalty for interference and a game misconduct.

The following grounds are being considered for supplemental discipline: interference. However, the Department of Player Safety retains the right to make adjustments to the infraction upon review.

 

[Jozay]

Probably a fine.

This league is a f***ing joke if Hyman gets suspended but Kronwall and Wagner get nothing at all.

 

[Nineteen67]

It was a little late and shouldn’t warrant a suspension, however he’ll be getting 3 games.

 

[Stephen]

Let's protect McAvoy and let Kronwall get away with boarding a superstar. Great, NHL.

 

[ACC1224]

Just a fine and a warning. He has no history.

 

[CantLoseWithMatthews]

Don't really care if he's suspended or not in a vacuum, but the lack of consistency is pretty dumb. Wagner's hit was even worse

 

[Pookie]

Suspension worthy. Late and blindside.

Not a hockey play.

 

[Apotheosis]

He misses 2 games and Marner-Tavares don't have an offensive pylon lol

 

[Goonface2k14]

Whatever happened to finishing your check?

I get that it’s interference if it’s blatantly late, and that one was borderline, if anything. Definitely not late enough to be a suspension IMO.

 

[CantLoseWithMatthews]

He misses 2 games and Marner-Tavares don't have an offensive pylon lol

wait until Goat takes his place

 

[Apotheosis]

wait until Goat takes his place

Why must you make me sad

I don’t see how he gets suspended. Similar hits to Wilson and Reaves and neither of them were suspended

Garbage.

A little late (like the Bruins did all night), but he didnt hit the head and he didnt jump.

 

[Territory]

Suspension worthy. Late and blindside.

Not a hockey play.

He hit him from the front what is blindside about that?

 

[PromisedLand]

so hyman has a hearing but wagner takes a blind side run at Rielly with an intent to injure and nothing?

bush league

 

[Isaac Nootin]

They are no longer the Big Bad Bruins, they need the league to help fight their battles these days.

Probably a fine, but with DoPS, you never know. They probably tag on a game.

 

[NightTrain1]

And why is Wagner's predatory retaliatory hit not being looked at exactly? He had Reilly lined up and skated half the width of the ice to get to him with clear intent. The NHL is actually a joke with how it deals with suspensions and discipline. When you have Jim Hughson of all people talking about the intent of Wagner you know its bad.
