Disgusting hit by Pospisil



Absolutely no regard for human life.

  1. Same hit from rempe tonight on lusto but comments about “guys with their back turned need to stop doing that” gets tons of upvotes. Let’s see how r/nhl does mental gymnastics for this hit

    Time to bring back double digit game suspensions. I don’t think we’ve had one since Tom Wilson, but the DOPS needs to stomp down on plays that are recklessly dirty (examples from this season are this, the Rielly thing against Greig, Perron against Zub, etc)

    Maybe worry a lot less about voluntary/consensual fighting and a lot more about blatant dirty plays

    Calgary fans doing backflips to justify this bullshit. Flames are a bunch of sore ass losing bitches.

    Also second hit like this in the game. He should have had two majors. Refs had blinders on and were forced to call this one.

    Absolutely disgusting hit, I’m glad Matty immediately went in to defend Dunn. Seeing Calgary fans defend it saying he turned his back to him at the last second or that it was at the side and a clean hit are delusional.

    Don’t get into Reddit fights with Flames fans. Takes a heavily malfunctioning brain to try and take a piece out of you after that and there’s nothing they’re going to say that you need to hear.

  6. He was doing stuff like this the whole game, should’ve been shut down by the refs or players sooner. Although I think he was dodging any possible dance partners every time.

    Gotta put stop on the back of the jerseys like we in minors

    Is it me or is it just so much worse this year? Players have determined that the refs are not calling things and the DOPS isn’t likely to do much.

    That’s brutal. Major risk of spinal injury on a hit like that. Suspension in order min 6 imho.

  10. Ugh. His back was to him the whole time. That’s awful.

    Dafuq? Does this dude thinks hes in a beer league? Terrible hit on a unexpected player. Max suspension is needed.

  12. Alesisdrum

    This needs to be a big suspension but i’m guessing 3 games

  13. I really wish shit like this was 20 games instead of like 5.

    Want to get this garbage out of the game, then actually remove it.

    So this is obviously not good, but you also can’t just sit on the boards with the puck

  15. Glum_Night_6392

    That was hard to watch , didn’t slow up at all 

  16. ImHidingFromMy-

    Anyone else read his name as popsicle every time?

  17. Two bad hits, refused to answer the bell, turtled against Kartye, likely getting suspended, and cost us a chance at a point in a heated playoff race. Neato.

    I don’t care for either team because both have somehow had our number all season…but as a fan of the game that shit is completely uncalled for and Pospisil has to be suspended. Hope Dunn is okay that’s the best player on the Kraken. I don’t know how anyone can defend this bullshit. It’s dangerous and sends players into early retirement. Bad for the game.

  19. rockhammersmash

    That is literally one of the worst hits I’ve ever seen.

  20. Brief-Astronomer2684

    This clown has been doing shit like this all year. Such a dirty player

  21. beren0073

    He was an asshole for that hit and deserves not to play again in 2024. I don’t like see players standing there like that though either. Move the puck, don’t stand with your back to the play knowing you can’t be hit legally.

  22. Pospisil speed running becoming the most hated player in one season. Watched part of the game, ran around throwing reckless checks.

  23. JesusMurphy99

    If he doesn’t get 10 games for this the NHL is fucked

  24. thoroughly_useful

    If that is not an in person hearing and a suspension over 5 games, then no logical argument can be made that the DPS has any measure of consistency in their calls.

  25. I unfortunately missed this part of the game, but fuck man. Brutal hit.

  26. Loudlaryadjust

    I like Pospisil but refusing to fight Kartye who’s a 5’11” rookie non fighter was a bitch moves

  27. large_ulrich

    Without a doubt a dirty hit but Dunn thinks he’s invincible standing 2 feet off the boards with his back to 9 guys
