No. There was a lethal Edmonton ladybug on Leonās wrist. Petro just killed it for him. No suspension. Should be praised
Penny4TheGuy
Yes, that should be a one game suspension imo
ulutini
Better be or Bettmans a bitch.
Oh wait…
yemx0351
Yes.
Game started getting out of hand. The boarding on Kane was not called and shit started getting really stupid after that.

If they don’t suspend him, it sets a dangerous precedent that it’s ok for star players to be slashed in a way that could hurt them.

Is water wet?
shittybillz
Well yea. He didnāt have the puck. Itās intent to really hurt with the potential to injure
2BFrank69
He should get a game for that
OddlyShapedButthole
Better get more than a 5 minute major for that. Iām sure there will be at least a fine. But would be really bad on the league if they let things like that go, would pretty much just tell players to injure the star players
legend-780
Major in the final 5 minutes is an automatic game. Question is if Nurse is going to get one too for the instigator.
whosdadd4
Oilers can suck it, if you watched the game youād actually understand.
Methtimezzz
Does a bear shit in the woods?
Looking forward to player safety slapping pietrangelo with a suspension
Jasbuddy
Wtf is he even thinking there

If you donāt punish things like this they need to have linesmen stop holding back fights
Glittering-Creme7929
Nah itās alright, oilers are a Canadian team it donāt matter

Intent to murder smh
luzer_kidd
JT Miller hacked jack hughes on top of his helmet and not even a 2 minute penalty. League is a joke.
bigsmokenumber45
Fucking savage play. 1-2 games for sure
robotinforest
Is it draistl?!?

Vegas player is a shit bag? I am shocked!

Seems pretty standard fair to me although cutting firewood is a bit strange during a hockey game

POS move but Kane on Oilers has been even worse in my opinion

How stupid do you have to be to do that right in front of an official?
Xanyol
Looks like any old playoff play
BrownIceDog
Yes
BigFaZhou
Looked like that scene from the Mighty Ducks when team Iceland takes out Banks. Bad guys gonna bad guy
mmmmmmmmmmTacos
Yes. But no more so than what has been going on in multiple series so far.
DouggietheK
Fuck yeah.
imaybeacatIRl
I’d suggest it is… That’s pretty ugly.
that_madcow
looks more like a failed execution attempt
haihaiclickk
Absofuckinglutely. I was legitimately shocked watching this live. The puck is long gone, Drai already let up on the skating and Pietr clearly is aiming for the part of the forearm where there’s no padding between the elbow pads and cuffs of the glove.

Is that Shoresy out there?

Was it dirty? Yes.
Was it āintent to injureā? Itās honestly a shame that āintent to injureā is the official term. Because it causes a lot of confusion. THAT SAIDā¦In terms of the rule book definition, the answer is yesā¦and itās not really debatable.
Although I think itās worth noting that the part of the definition that applies is about ārecklessly endangeringā (which interestingly has nothing at all to do with intent).
> A match penalty shall be assessed to any player or team official **who recklessly endangers** or attempts to injure any opposing player or team official.
Iāve gotta say thoughā¦I honestly canāt believe thatās the actual wording of the ruleā¦As players ārecklessly endangerā each other ALL THE TIME during normal, legal, play.
AssInspectorGadget
It should be a game suspension, also Dryside should also get a fine for the cross check. Tough play is okay as long at is clean, I fucking hate this cross checks and stick to the head and wrists. NHL could clean these if they wanted to.
TotalCharcoal
Pretty sure you can’t Happy Gilmore a dude when you’re pissed off. Especially when he doesn’t have the puck. Man, the refs really let this one get away from them.
Veggieman34
This will be a 5k fine. Bunting took something similar to the neck and thatās what the other guy got.
altox069
Sure wasnāt intent to pleasure

More like assault with deadly weapon

The most obvious suspension ever. Goes after Drai without the puck. Winds up over his head to put as much possible force into the slash. Could have broken Drais wrists and stopped his Conn Smythe run essentially auto-winning the series for Vegas. If this isnāt a suspension, then nothing is.
But Watch the NHL give him a fine and continue to be an absolute joke.

Yes.
Unequivocally Yes
Looks like he got him right in the wrist š¬
Donāt expect any repercussions thoughā¦
What a POS move

Saw this live. Absolutely was intent to injure.
