Harsh judgement compared how soft in junior league are referees when real power hit happened
But ofcourse NHL players health is more important than kids and junior, money money
Not exactly an Eichel fan but man is that a weak call
Biased commentators stating there was no movement (spearing motion), and the replay clearly shows he does move his arms. The danger of placing a stick into another players mid-section is very real. These guys do not wear metal armor.
oh my goodness that is terrible reffing
He definitely meant to do something but it didn’t seem ejection worthy idk the rules like that tho so idk 🤷♂️
lmao these announcers clearly have bad vision.
BAD FUCKING call on Eichel those REFS are TOTALLY FUCKED
And as a Sabres fan, happy Eichel stood up for himself. Kaprizov got in sneaky crosscheck, got what he deserved and embellished it. Typical European tactics. Ask Bobby Clarke about the Soviet Summit series.
I heard Eichel was so upset he wants another neck surgery and demanded a trade.
pretty weak imo
At least he won my pims category for the week lol
In 531 games played this was his first major and his first game misconduct.
Now he needs 272 more majors to tie Tie Domi, and 39 more game misconducts to tie Tim Hunter 😄
BS call not in EICHEL’S game
This call was so weak. Sounded like the refs had to choose between a 5 or 2 minute? Eichel slightly moved his stick towards Kaprizov, but not in a spearing motion. It looked like he was just trying to hold his stick against the body of 97. That’s common, we see that happen all the time when players use their stick to get their opponent uncomfortable, so long as they don’t commit in obvious penalty. At most he was trying to slash or hook him. Even thats tough to tell if thats what he was doing. But nothing worth 5 minutes and getting ejected. Kaprizov skated right into the stick. It looked like Kaprizov may have sold that for more than what it was. Tough to tell really. Jack supposed to reposition himself or his stick because Kaprizov isn’t moving out of the way? There was no intent to spear him, that’s pretty obvious. Not sure if the refs assumed it was retaliation for the cross check they missed or what. Very surprised to see a player get ejected when he barely moved his stick. Is he supposed to get his stick out of the way if someone is skating into it? He’s holding his stick how any player would if it’s not on the ice.
End of the day it doesn’t matter, Knight got the dub. I don’t see the NHL doing much more than a fine. If anything it would be nice to hear the NHL explain this rule in a bit more detail.
That was soccer level embellishment from 97
Wild players are whiners and divers.
It wasn't spearing, just a soft crybaby name Kaprizov being a bitch.
I'd say it's similar to the Benn play where he cross checked him a bit , forget that vegas fools name, anyway it's reversed. Only thing it's not a big playoff game. Benn got major and two game suspension for literally a crosscheck. It only looked bad because the dude flopped. The intent to injure might have been there, as is this play
The fact that Eichel is surprised is the problem with the players today. They think they can get away with murder and that it'd be okay per the rules.
This is an obvious spear and clearly is a major penalty. Eichel should not be surprised one bit.
I'm a Vegas Fan , and Even an Eichel Fan I think this is spearing as well yes he didn't jab it into Kaprizov, but if he's on a full sprint, and your hoping they plunge themselves into your stick, I would say that is still a spear.
Jack retaliated, most things that happen go unnoticed, especially by the casual fan, he was giving back a Cheapshot against him, although spearing can be dangerous, I don't think that was that bad, I had my eyelid almost completely torn off from a butend back in the day. Hockeys full of cheapshots that go unnoticed.
This was a bull shit call.. glad they got justice in the end with a win
Clearly a dirty play and spear
