Geekie illegal check to the head penalty – Have your say!
Conor Geekie was given a minor penalty for illegal check to the head or neck area on this play. What do you think of that call specifically? Have your say!
Seems like leading with the elbow instead of shoulder is the go now.. it's pathetic.. simple body rub out would of been more effective… Why lead with elbow out? Should be called elbowing everytime…

2 mins roughing
2min ok
Looked like an attempt at a slewfoot too.
Geekie should do 5-10 years in Millhaven maximum security alongside Cory Perry, what a dork.
Idk about check to the head but I would've said 2 for roughing and 2 for trip/slew foot
Elbowing id say
That probably hurt – a lot
Someone's been taking pointers from the Boston #63 playbook I see.
Maybe labeled it wrong, but 2 mins for sure.
Idk about check to the head but 2mins regardless elbowing/roughing.

More of a slewfoot imo
5 min check to the head. Its really hard very high and no accident. Tho not to hard to get a game misconduct.
Bs. If the Beck hit is not illegal this one isn't either. Refs showing their Bias for Sweden already
Yeah that is a definite penalty, elbowing under the chin in an uppercut type motion is also really shitty.
Not sure if he intended that or not, but that was a really shitty move.
Penalty
Should be an elbowing penalty, not hit to head. It's different
and the day after he got suspended for checking to the head on a german player
Pretty much slew footing but using knee up high. Outstanding
NOW THIS is dirty. See the chicken wing.
Slow motion makes it look bad. Just a bang bang play– no intentions
Slewfoot. God misconduct, no further action
2min roughing
