  1. I saw somewhere all he got was a 5 game suspension for this

    Especially with the recent death (rest in peace), I’m surprised they only gave him 5 games. The world is usually reactive rather than being proactive so this is the time for the league to be crazy about neck safety. Given how intentional it looked, I would’ve expected like half a season suspension. This is not a question of controlling your body, that’s a question of deciding whether or not to kick someone. I liked the guy when he played with the kings and with our ahl team, but that was an awful decision, and he should be thanking his lucky stars that he gets to come back after 5 games.

    Seriously? A guy just died from a skate and this is how we play? Unreal stupidity. Should be banned for life

  4. Did you know Frk holds the record in the NHL for only player without a vowel in his last name to ever play.

    He got 5 games and a 7660 Swiss franc fine. Source: Helsingin Sanomat newspaper

    The victim Lawrence Pilut said that basically shit happens and he doesn’t think Frk tried to hurt him, just disn’t have full control of his body. 💁🏼‍♂️

    As dirty as it gets. Lifetime ban. This happening again after a similar incident killed someone. Get it out of the game immediately, no exceptions

    That is way fucked up but the other dude is at fault too, should have stopped

  8. No_Tea_9845

    I would suspend for the remainder of the season at an absolute minimum

    Only thing I can even half think of as an excuse is he’s trying to kip up off the rail

    Should have sent a strong message here, season ban.

  11. Ballsahoy72

    A whole lotta stupid is happening in hockey right now

  12. Atomic-pangolin

    No way that wasn’t intentional, you don’t just bring your leg all the way back like that like you’re bending over backwards

  13. He has never been known as a dirty player, I’m really disappointed. FRK THAT

  14. TiredReader87

    He should be banned. There’s no place for that in hockey.

    What a dirtbag

  15. Jazzlike_Ninja5913

    good luck next time dude steps on the ice

  16. _BearsBeetsBattle_

    Who the fuck flails their feet like that? Last kick was aimed. Year suspension.

    There is no reason someone should have their skates up that high…unless they’re in figure skating.

  18. Count____Rackula

    This is what kicking looks like to all the braindead right wingers

  19. As someone who doesn’t know shit about anything and came here from r/all, this looks about as murderous as any other NHL clip I’ve ever seen
