  1. I’m a pens fan but what was that? Dude literally elbowed him straight in the head.

  2. Why are there so many cheapshots to the head these days? One of the reasons is that there is no enforcer anymore; an elbow to the head deserves a punch in the head; simple as that. Or else we can continue to see good players injured.

  3. Dude literally stretched his elbow out to make sure he hit Kuzy's head. NHL department of players safety – do your thing

  4. Announcer laughed as he said takes that one to the nose. I'm canadian and I can admit that there is a huge canadian bias.

  5. If the DoPS does not look into this hit, they will expose themselves as a joke. Tanev's motion prior to the hit shows intent to injure. There is nothing to defend here, even if you are a diehard Jets fan.

  6. Look another dirty play by the jets and yet again the league won’t care. Add more games for Wilson

  7. Let me just say this first – Definite suspension. Not sure how many games but Kuznetsov left the game. I’m a Jets fan, and I agree it’s a bad play. However. Tanev has had issues before, I don’t think he was throwing his elbow out intentionally. I’m not saying he didn’t hit him with his elbow, but he didn’t chicken wing the guy either. I hope Kuznetsov isn’t injured badly and Tanev deserves to miss some games, but I don’t think he did it on purpose- especially since he’s had suspensions before. Caps fans I think you played well, should’ve gotten a point out of it but that’s how it goes sometimes.
