Hakstol calls Pospisil’s hit ‘garbage’. Is he right?



Kraken head coach Dave Hakstol called two of Martin Pospisil’s hits on Monday night “garbage” in his post-game comments. Is he right? TSN Hockey analyst Frankie Corrado gives his thoughts.

  1. What do you expect Pospil to do? You have the puck on the boards and stick your bum and back out and wait like 6 seconds. The Seattle player put himself in that position.

  2. I mean u can’t just face the boards and expect people to not hit u when you have the puck. I feel like a lot of player are using this to protect the puck which is really dangerous since they expect to not get hit

  3. This guy justifying hits like this is absolutely ridiculous there still a clear way of hitting someone growing up u are told not to hit from behind absolutely ridiculous take

  4. Corrado should never talk about hockey again. You do not hit a guy like Pospisil did. It is against the rules. How clueless are you Frankie? He didn't turn at the last second. Dunn was facing the boards the entire time. Pospisil has to tie him up instead of just blasting Dunn into the boards. You have never played hockey.

  5. This f/ing reporter obviously has never played hockey. What an idiot. I love an old school rough game and the odd fight. Both of these hits were horrible, and made by a coward. Keep your head up the rest of the year buddy

  6. Recognize?? Really?? So putting yourself in that position justifies a super dangerous hit from behind with the potential to paralyze a guy for life…? Stupid stupid justification. He didn't have to hit him high, could have easily tied him up. Both hits could have ended horribly. Smarten up with those comments.
