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
French-BulIdog
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.
CurlingTrousers
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.
jholden23
What a garbage hit.
Niclmaki
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.

Motherfucker

…this is from the side…

Why would Nick Cousins do this?
Soft_Park_5175
Gotta put stop on the back of the jerseys like we in minors
LumbaJ4cked
Can’t have reckless players like that in the league, it’s a coin toss for injuring someone into early retirement or worse.

SP_Bridges
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.
makeanewblueprint
That’s brutal. Major risk of spinal injury on a hit like that. Suspension in order min 6 imho.
hrryyss
Ugh. His back was to him the whole time. That’s awful.
Deraj2004
Dafuq? Does this dude thinks hes in a beer league? Terrible hit on a unexpected player. Max suspension is needed.
Alesisdrum
This needs to be a big suspension but i’m guessing 3 games
Rhysing
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.
Goose9903
So this is obviously not good, but you also can’t just sit on the boards with the puck
Glum_Night_6392
That was hard to watch , didn’t slow up at all
ImHidingFromMy-
Anyone else read his name as popsicle every time?
Sc00tzy
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.
Critical_Attempt8556
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.
IllustriousShirt9625
His other choice was what?
IllustriousShirt9625
Play the puck and get the f*** out of there. He was waiting for a hit
KingBuck_413
The nhl doesn’t need this shit
rockhammersmash
That is literally one of the worst hits I’ve ever seen.
IveGotAMicropeen
Nice hit!!! Dummy should maybe think about getting rid of the puck quickly
Brief-Astronomer2684
This clown has been doing shit like this all year. Such a dirty player
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.
Thrillhouse918
Not wearing a leafs jersey. It’ll only be a fine
BBQBEERNBLADES
Reckless and dangerous. He should be gone for at least 20-25 games.
XolieInc
Pospisil speed running becoming the most hated player in one season. Watched part of the game, ran around throwing reckless checks.
JesusMurphy99
If he doesn’t get 10 games for this the NHL is fucked
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.
Grizz709
I unfortunately missed this part of the game, but fuck man. Brutal hit.
toxicvegeta08
Piss missile strikes again
Loudlaryadjust
I like Pospisil but refusing to fight Kartye who’s a 5’11” rookie non fighter was a bitch moves
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
heimos
Dirty
Spiritual_Holiday511
Not surprised he pulled some shit like this. Every time I’m unfortunate enough to watch the flames play, I can tell he’s a fucking goon. Was only a matter of time until he did this.
