The_People1 Posted January 8, 2017 Report Share Posted January 8, 2017 A brutal K.O. to one of the most exciting young players in the league right now. Laine was leading all rookies in scoring with 42GP, 21G, 16A, 37PTS. Hope he's okay but it didn't look good the way he wobbled off the ice. Clean hit? Helmet to helmet?? Will Laine ever be the same again after this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean you dont like to see it, but in my opinion thats a clean hit, not much you can do about that if you are going to skate through the neutral zone with your head down. Im not quite sure how the officials only gave schiefle a roughing on that play, he dropped the gloves and was swinging for the fences, if that was say hathaway it would have been a misconduct at the very least. The nhl needs to sort out its referees, but I got off track it was a clean hit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cross16 Posted January 8, 2017 Report Share Posted January 8, 2017 Clean as you get. Nothing at all wrong with that hit except the result. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JTech780 Posted January 8, 2017 Report Share Posted January 8, 2017 Clean hit, I don't even get why there is debate. Terrible suicide pass by Scheifele. Scheifele owes Laine after that one. Laine actually reminded me of Lindros on that play. Like Lindros, Laine was probably always the biggest guy on the ice growing up and didn't have to worry too much about getting leveled coming through the neutral zone. Hopefully Laine learns the lesson that Lindros never did, that there are equally as big players in the NHL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DirtyDeeds Posted January 8, 2017 Report Share Posted January 8, 2017 Clean hit... However this is just another example of how screwed up the game is...... Forces teammates to defend him even though it was a legit hit.(thus the scrum after the hit) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably felt guilty after setting Laine up for the hit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both coach Maurice & I agree it was a clean hit. McCabe was slightly injured (cut near the eye as it was near head on head after the shoulder did the initial damage). Laine was basically out cold when his head hit the ice so that didn't help. I was happy to learn Laine walked out of the arena under his own power. According to the coach's scrum this morning it is indeed a concussion with time line unknown (like all concussions). With this being their prize rookie I expect the Jets to err on the side of caution. & DD, the players on the ice don't see the hit from the vantage point of isolated cameras but do see the teammate on the ice so of course go after the supposed culprit asap. The scrum @ the end I see as the Jets being POed over the loss of Laine combined with frustration over blowing a lead to let the game slip through their fingers. I got a kick out of Lehner's tweets saying Big Buff was lucky the refs got between them. Lehner was behind the safety of the net trying to throw punches while mostly hidden.

I think he had the best oppurtunity, but really mark sceifele should have been giving a game misconduct on the play and the insitgator, his gloves were off and he was throwing punches while mcabe was laying on the ice getting his face punched in with his gloves on. I cant remember who did it, but it was a similar play with whoever jumped polak a couple seasons ago, and he was suspended for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm a Menno (known best as pacifists) but like Robyn Regehr (son of Mennonite missionaries) don't see defense of your own on a rink as evil.

As I said the guys on ice don't have isolation cameras in slo-mo before deciding to come to a mates aid so react in a moment. Condemning after innumerable views is an advantage but if it was you on the ice seeing the teammate down what would you do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where did I say what he did was wrong as a hockey player? i said he attacked McCabe, and he should have got an instigator on the play. That doesn't make me a pacifist.

You are right. I can only go by the content of your posts. You might be a gorilla that gets off on beating people for all I know & try to appear innocent in this persona. By the same standard you have no idea who I am. I've divulged I'm a Menno so don't believe in killing but that doesn't stop me from protecting loved 1s & friends. There is a difference.

I responded when you condemned Scheifele for going after McCabe for injuring his teammate. He wasn't a knuckle dragger coming off the bench but simply a man coming to the aid of a friend.

travel_dude Posted January 10, 2017 Report Share Posted January 10, 2017 All right, time to walk away. Continue the discussion about the player or the injury, but let's get away from the play after the whistle. There's a thread dedicated to fighting and instigator rules.
