CLEAN HIT, no suspension should be awarded. yes, there's contact to the head, but main point of contact is the body. If anything that bonehead Diaz should be suspended for giving such a horrid pass
you are wrong, there…and please where is the elbow? get your facts straight before posting. Bob Mackenzie clearly explains and breaks down the play as well
lol i know right? watch the replay you habs fans! if you know hockey, you can see that it was a clean hit, and just a dirty outcome. plus you guys got a good chunk of power play time
It looks like Gryba got the elbow up right at the point of contact as though he was trying to disguise a premeditated head shot as a legal shoulder check. If I were Shannahan, that would be two games. It would be 4-5 five if they were regular season games, but playoff games are a more significant penalty. The way he hit the ice face first reminds me of the injury that ruined Kevin Stevens career. Wonder what Melnyk's position will be on the hit after all the eyre he's directed at Matt Cooke?
Yeah the guys is bleeding because he received the shoulder on the chest. Come on man… If you dont clearly see an elbow it's because there is no good view angle.
I don't like Montreal,but I hate seeing players get injured like that,it's unfortuante but it comes with the game.Hope he recovers..but I hope Montreal loses the series!
you're calling me an asian, and yet you're fucking english is worse than mine. I'm probably twice the hockey player you are as well. Maybe you should see how hard he face planted afterwards if your wondering about the facial fractures. go back to drinking beer in you're mom's basement
Completely clean hit. It was a hockey hit. It sucks to see the guy get hurt but you can clearly see he makes initial contact with the hip/mid area of the body. As he was hitting him, he did happen to hit the head but it wasn't the initial contact and Gryba had his elbows down. wasn't a charge nor did he jump. Clean hit to me.
Skating Hard = Good ; Hard body checks = Good; ANY hit where the head is the primary point of contact should be an automatic one game rip with the possibility of a longer suspension of the hit shows intent to injure. Medical fact: If Eller wasn't knocked out before he hit the ice, he would have shielded his face with his hands. Savard, Lindros, and Pronger have all had shorter careers and Crosby has lost 3 Art Rosses and at least one Hart because of people who want that kind of play in the game.
I guess Shannahan saw it my way… it was a hit that targeted the head… the ice did additional damage. But the elbow in the face is what rendered him unconscious and helpless to defend himself during his decent to the ice.
OOOH, looks like its leading him to ending his career, probably not but that is a serious blow. thats why my dad didn't sign me up for hockey when i was small. Hockey is perfectly fine, its just that ti slips in boxing very easily, if you know what i mean

I feel like it was a cheap shot by Gryba 😮

2 game tops. Look at the blood. Lol but Galchenyuk was trying to fight.

If you're a Habs fan you're probably whining about it being dirty.
clean hit, good and very fun time 😀
Oh yeah that was so legal, the guys is bleeding probably because of a hit on the chest. NO doubt.
Idiot…

Thanks…those guys out here are fucking retarted.
SO FUNNY to see a guy bleed on the ice…. surely a legal hit. Are you fucking kidding me?
That was a cheap hit…
prusts stick contacted andersons head when he stuck it up his mask. OMG IT MUST BE ILLEGAL THROW HIM IN A DUNGEON. lol habs fans, stop complaining
Yeah the guys is bleeding because he received the shoulder on the chest. Come on man… If you dont clearly see an elbow it's because there is no good view angle.
That aint true, you can get a clean body check WHILE hitting the head as well. As long as the main point of contact is the body, like Mike said.
Anyone calling that scene a fun time is exactly the type of fan who gives hockey a bad name. It's a sport; not the Roman Coliseum.
I've yet to see the "5 mins for a bloody nose" penalty in the book. Habs fans should be more upset about the hospital pass Eller's teammate gave him.
Gryba est un idiot.Gryba is a freaking ass.
The brad Stuart hit on Landeskog was not awarded a suspension, so just because ellar is bleeding a suspension is warranted? come on people
ELLER IS AT THE HOSPITAL YOU LIKE THIS
thank you sir
There is zero body contact, not sure what some if you are watching. It's all head shot. Could have been a great hit but turned into dirt.
Si vous regarder bien quand Gryba donne sa mise en echec , il se dirige vers Eller et commence a linsulter
Yeah cause he's definitely not bleeding because of how hard his face hit the ice…
clean
Horrible hit by Gryba. Horrible suicide pass by Diaz.
habs fans, you should be more angry at Diaz than Gryba
Damn that is a lot of blood. Reminds me of the dude who got his throat cut from a skate blade.
i hope eller gets suspended!
start freeze framing at 0:17 buddy. don't call me a dumbass for you're failure to interpret with your own eyes.
how can eller get suspended? he's the one that got hit!! damnnn
I don't like Montreal,but I hate seeing players get injured like that,it's unfortuante but it comes with the game.Hope he recovers..but I hope Montreal loses the series!
hahahahah what a pussy
When hit like that happen, no matter wich team you support, we should stay up together

Fucking Have fans are gonna bitch about this one for ages though, even though they are wrong.
*Habs
ridiculous pass by diaz
no the skate to the neck was a lot worse and I know what you are talking about , it was a goalie that got it to the neck, I just forget who ,,
The only ones who say it's a dirty hit is habs fans, every one else is saying it's a clean hit. So you're wrong.

Horrible pass by Diaz. Reminds me of the Campbell hit in 2006.
DIAL 911 YOU BUNCH OF BITCHES!! AAAHHHHHHHHHHH HAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAH
AND ANOTHER ONE BITES THE DUST!!!!! 911! 911! 911! 911! CHARA WOULD HAVE KILLED HIM!
