manitoubass2 Posted November 6, 2016 Report Posted November 6, 2016 HMMMMM, I was watching a Leafs game and a boxing match broke out!!!! The boyz are kickin' it old skool!!! They handled the canucks pretty good eh? I like how kadri is playin. And hows about that marner kid???
DRIFTER_016 Posted November 6, 2016 Author Report Posted November 6, 2016 Nuthin' like a good olde fashioned goalie fight!!!
leaf4 Posted November 6, 2016 Report Posted November 6, 2016 That was a fun game to watch! Twitter is full of people calling for kadri's head over that hit, IMO it was a clean hit, and the only reason it looked bad was because sedins head whiplashed and he lost his bucket, saw this picture and it paints a pretty clear picture of initial point of contact
DRIFTER_016 Posted November 6, 2016 Author Report Posted November 6, 2016 Yup, it did look bad at real speed though.
DRIFTER_016 Posted November 6, 2016 Author Report Posted November 6, 2016 As figured, no disciplinary measures for Kadri. Keep yer head up Danny!!! http://www.tsn.ca/kadri-avoids-discipline-for-hit-on-d-sedin-1.601442 Kadri avoids discipline for hit on D. Sedin Nazem Kadri and Daniel Sedin, Rick Madonik/Toronto Star/Getty Images Toronto forward Nazem Kadri will not be further disciplined for his hit on Vancouver forward Daniel Sedin in the Leafs' 6-3 win over the Canucks on Saturday, according to TSN Hockey Insider Pierre LeBrun. As Sedin scored the Canucks' third and final goal of the game in the third period, Kadri collided with the Swedish forward and appeared to connect with both Sedin's shoulder and head. Sedin spiralled out after the contact and appeared to hit his head off the ice. The game unravelled after that with both starting goalies getting game misconducts for participating in a line brawl. A total of 147 penalty minutes were handed out in the third period.
leaf4 Posted November 6, 2016 Report Posted November 6, 2016 Good hockey play, looks bad because it was at speed but great hit, I love Reilly sticking up for himself too. Can't wait for December 3!
lookinforwalleye Posted November 6, 2016 Report Posted November 6, 2016 Looked like a clean hit to me...be aware of your surroundings and who is on the ice....having said that Matt Martin is tool!!!

DRIFTER_016 Posted November 6, 2016 Author Report Posted November 6, 2016 two teams moving in opposite directions last night. wonder what, if anything, van will do with the sedins and miller. My guess is they will trade them to the Sens!!!
lookinforwalleye Posted November 6, 2016 Report Posted November 6, 2016 Lol people seem to be incensed by him... aside from fighting that dude what else did he do did I miss out on something haha by dude you mean the pimple faced rookie with 4 games under his belt....goons like Martin should stick to harassing other goons....I am sure Leaf Nation would be outraged if Chris Neal attacked Mitch Marner....

leaf4 Posted November 6, 2016 Report Posted November 6, 2016 dorsett skated away from martin.. then pummeled komarov. pretty sure that was what that was all about. I was laughing when I saw him try to take on komarov... That's not his style (komarov that is)

I agree 100%.. you just simply dont goon rookies..Dec 3 will be interesting..Wonder what rookie of ours will Burrows take out..Bad move Martin..Im sure he will regret that...
AKRISONER Posted November 7, 2016 Report Posted November 7, 2016 (edited) burrows is a clown always has been same can be said for kadri...the hit was clean, but the intention is the problem...if you do that to a star player, clean hit or not, you cant just turtle when you inevitably get in a scrap. Im glad the NHL handled this the way they did, let the boys police themselves...keep your head up and be ready to drop the gloves if you are throwing hits to lay out the teams best players. Expect someone to hit mathews or marner hard next game. Also Martin wanted a piece of dorsett and he knew he couldnt take him...hence why martin did what he did, im all for it...its no different then a clown like burrows spearing rielly except martin did it with his hands not his stick...gotta pay the piper. Good job to rielly for standing up for himself, you gotta do that stuff if you are a defenceman. im really happy to see the leafs looking competitive every game in every facet of the game...im loving watching hockey again.

manitoubass2 Posted November 7, 2016 Report Posted November 7, 2016 Like it or not everyone on the ice is fair game. But its like chipping off the green in golf. Its perfectly withing the rules, just heavely frowned upon. Yeah id rather see tough guys stick to tough guys. But if it was my job to send a message and I stumble upon you, well, thats just how she goes. Im fine with kadris hit as well. Nice hard hit! But as it always does in the NHL, he better be ready to pay the piper, regardless...
Headhunter Posted November 7, 2016 Report Posted November 7, 2016 I have always thought that the NHL was a man's game, played by men, or boys. The "wusification" of the NHL is starting to get annoying. Sedin got hit with his head down, I bet he'll be more careful next time out. That's something they teach kids early on in their hockey career. I also find it objectionable that there is retaliation after every hit, legal or not. I wish they would just get up, shake it off and play on, but that doesn't seem to be the rule anymore either. The way it's going, we are going to be watching a league full of Hammerstoms. Poor guy probably never had a scrambled egg in his life! HH
grimsbylander Posted November 7, 2016 Report Posted November 7, 2016 Since when did it become the responsibility of the Leafs to pamper other teams stars? For decades, the Leafs got zero respect from any other team in the league and on many occasions got hammered. They had no defined superstars or enforcer so everyone was considered a fair target. Now the team has some juice and they're playing with moxie. I like it. Martin grabbed the kid but let's face it, that was because Dorcett whimped out and went after Komarov. The message is clear, pull that crap and all your players are fair game also. I'm absolutely ok with it and I'll bet Vancouver knows Dorcett was responsible. Kadri's hit was fair and nonpunishable. The league can't enforce unwritten rules. Unfortunately, the door swings both ways and when it does, let's hope it's not costly. In hindsight, I wish he hadn't hit him so hard. He had already released the puck and scored the goal. It didn't change the outcome of the play whatsoever. Easy to say after the fact though and Kadri would have no way of knowing. Reilly hit was freaking magic. I'm sure lots of tape was reviewed and Babcock will make sure everyone knows their roles and what is excepted. More importantly what is not expected in the future. For me, that was a great game with a little bit of everything. It's been too damn long since I got to watch the Leafs shine on the scoreboard, show off tremendous new talent and kick some a$$ along the way. Welcome back, it's been a while.

DRIFTER_016 Posted November 7, 2016 Author Report Posted November 7, 2016 I forgot how much fun a line brawl was!!! Nothing like a good old fashioned goalie fight!!!
DRIFTER_016 Posted November 7, 2016 Author Report Posted November 7, 2016 hard to say i agree when gretzky played with semenko hit star players all you want, but live and die by the sword. That was back in the enforcer days. This is what happens when you remove them from the game. Grapes has been saying it for a long time and is not wrong.
manitoubass2 Posted November 7, 2016 Report Posted November 7, 2016 My kids already already fighting in first year midget lol. These guys can handle themselves. Even the smaller guys ie tootoo
