Insider Trading: Whitecloud hit sparks mass reaction

[@Alan-oo2cq]

White Cloud was crouched and took aim for his head as he stood up and suddenly stopped ....deliberate and if NHL doesn't do something about "chicken wing " hits . Like the can opener.?

[@robb412]

Parros is unqualified for adjudicating the NHL rules.

[@Marixa1979]

What did Parros have to do with it? He didn't give any supplemental discipline, but he wasn't involved in the call during the game that deemed it a clean hit.

[@stmart4097]

He's taken too many hits to the head himself to make actual logical decisions..he's a 🤡

[@larryforman5142]

"Understand the process". What process? The process that changes every game? The process to be as inconsistent as possible? GTH

[@scottcrew5705]

Exactly, an explanation that explained nothing!

[@stug5041]

They didn’t get it right it’s the same effing hit as Ryan reeves the game before

[@bruce8321]

He did not go for the body. He hit his head and it should have been called a Match penalty. Leafs never seem to get a break in the NHL.

[@Marixa1979]

Leafs got their break when they had a garbage player take out a very good defenseman in the previous game. I love how Leaf fans always play the everyone hates the Leafs thing every single time a call doesn't go the way they want it to. The League bends over backwards to appease the Leafs at every turn.

[@jessewahwah]

@@Marixa1979 The Leafs paid a price for taking out a very good defenseman. Nice of you you to show your idiocy by contradicting yourself.

[@stmart4097]

Parros hates the leafs.. all of his rulings and decisions are never logical or fair.. I am not a leaf fan and can see how parros constantly gives them harsher punishment.. Marchand can end guys seasons every yr and gets 2 games max. There's no consistency ..never has been since parros been in charge

[@Marixa1979]

@@jessewahwah What price? Their garbage player has to sit for 5 games? The Leafs take that tradeoff 100% of the time. The somewhat equivalent would be if Josh Brown brained Marner in the second and got kicked out and suspended. Pretty favorable tradeoff for the Oilers.

[@Krokodilius]

it's a shoulder to the head no matter how many talking heads back this bullshit. i'm so used to the leafs getting screwed i can't even get mad any more, just more depressed at the process and the people behind it.

[@Hockeyman125689]

So you want open ice hitting out of the game then? Impossible to hit someone shorter than you in the chest without hitting the head as well. Try it, stand in a traditional hockey stance, head up and walk towards a wall. Your head will be the first part of your body that hits the wall.

[@merlbartley7243]

​@@Hockeyman125689what the hell are you talking about you can't jump into a goddamn hit

[@Hockeyman125689]

@@merlbartley7243 He didn't jump. Both his feet were on the ice at the time of contact. He bent his knees and exploded into the hit. Hits identical to this one happen all the time, hell trouba has about half a dozen a year and every time people complain and he doesn't get suspended. We can have the conversation on whether it SHOULD be a penalty. But the way the rules have been inforced the last couple of years, not a penalty

[@stmart4097]

Parros hates the leafs. Not a leaf fan but parros continues to screw the leafs all the time.. no consistency at all.. never is with parros the 🤡

[@T69B]

Dirtcloud strikes again...

[@Marixa1979]

You have instances of previous incidences with him?

[@LoganFruz]

In the 90s this was commonplace

[@cskvision]

If Landeskog has played his last NHL game, at least he went out on a high note raising the cup

[@kylet6356]

There is one thing most anti leaf fans seem to miss. The sports media is so under a cloud of being neutral that they become anti leaf because of it. Listen to Joe Bowen and that is the closest you will get. All other sports media supports their team. Just watch Boston, they over do it, but i can respect that.

[@mikepsi1359]

What process ?!?! The teams involved should not matter. The players involved should not matter. Contact to the head is a suspension... period. Someone is going to get seriously injured and it will be on the hands of these inconsistent idiots ! Favoritism what favoritism... nudge... nudge... wink...wink... !

[@RachelGhanta-b2q]

Appreciate the detailed breakdown! I have a quick question: I have a SafePal wallet with USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (alarm fetch churn bridge exercise tape speak race clerk couch crater letter). How should I go about transferring them to Binance?

[@jimlaw6925]

They did not get it right not even close

[@ianmartens5286]

whatever a team sows, that also shall they reap, eh Reavo?

[@zainnaqvi8161]

Oh look, trash league's mouthpiece Darren Dreger uttering his rubbish. Similar hit got Reaves 5 games. The bias against the Leafs over the years has been crazy where dirtier hits across the league don't get suspended or fined. Somehow this soft team over the past decade has been suspended the most. It makes no sense.

[@KptKrunch9481]

Defnitely the principal point of contact was the head. But similar to Reaves?? Be honest there bud. Nurse was coming out from behind his net, and the puck was bobbling on him - his priority is to get the puck out safely. Reaves zeroed in on him and (watch it don't take my word for it) he ELEVATED his shoulder to HIT NURSE in the HEAD - not similar at all That was a targeted hit and NOT the first time Reaves has done that. 5 games - IMO he should of received at least 7 games if not more. I get you're upset about the Whitecloud hit - but don't expect any sympathy from non-Leaf fans if your attitude is that the Reaves hit was 'similar' - not even close bud

[@jonathanduplantis1403]

Clean hit. Screw the Leafs

[@Cofitube94]

Watch Knies tell everybody at his next press conference that it was 100% clean and he should have expected the hit

[@user-iw5mp5th6d]

Goofy Leaf's broadcast crew was calling for a 5 game s suspension!

[@Veopoz]

Nobody Maple Laughing Today 😅

[@craigthir6578]

It looks like a clean hit to me, but if it was me that got rocked I would have a different opinion.

[@VagabondViking-i5x]

This is only a thing because it's the leafs... and their fans will never except their bias

[@13loodbunny]

Correct! Any other team and this is 5 min major and at least 2 games.

[@stmart4097]

Parros the clown hates the leafs.. it's very obvious..he's always harsher on them than any other team.. fire parros

[@Hockeyman125689]

@@13loodbunny if that was the case then what explains trouba doing similar hits all the time and never getting suspended?

[@user-iw5mp5th6d]

Knies skated into Whitecloud with his head down.

[@PotSmokeGuy]

Three guys who have never played pro hockey...let's here what they have to say about it. Curious, when was the last time any of these "insiders" broke any sort of story or predicted any actual trade that the entire world didn't see coming?

[@Marixa1979]

Former players and even the Leafs current coach called it a clean hit.

[@ozzydo2314]

If knies played for buffalo, this wouldn't even be news. If you freeze the frame, the players feet are fiemly planted upon contact.

[@jeffmelo7589]

But he was still on his way up.

[@Hockeyman125689]

​@@jeffmelo7589since when has that mattered? I swear hits like this happen every year and people complain about this exact thing (of course only when it's one of their guys getting hurt). It's never been a rule. You can leave you feet after initial contact is made

[@aaronmaclean8190]

That is not how the charging rule works. Maybe read it first.

[@QPINE01]

It’s not too early to start the CBA talks. Get it done early for once

[@CashMacGregor]

white cloud not a dirty player. as a matter of fact he rarely makes hits like this. looked ok to me.

[@merlbartley7243]

Wonder why leaf fans are pissed whatever happened to you can't leave your feet while you're hitting somebody. the guy jumped into the hit for crying out loud

[@PhillyLeotardo25]

Canadian on American so what’s the issue.

[@by-rc3nl]

solid hit

[@JUVI9596]

I remember hits like this every game back in the 80s and 90s. Snowflake league now isn’t it

[@mastersquid20]

Thought you couldn't leave your feet during a hit?

[@Marixa1979]

Watch hockey and you'll see that after impact at least one of the players' feet leave the ice after, it's physics. If you mean prior to a hit, you can't, and he didn't.

[@jessewahwah]

@@Marixa1979 Try PLAYING HOCKEY and you'll know it's "physics" because those players jump/lunge before contact. Scott Stevens never went flying through the air after he threw a hit. Neither did Bryan Marchment. Neither did Darius Kasparaitis. Neither did Mark Tinordi. And on and on.

[@leogabriel5422]

So you can leave your feet when going to hit someone in the head. At this point it would be easier to come out and say your bias.

[@Bill-Shakespeare]

Watch it in slow mo… contact first, feet off the ice after. Pretty common when you flatline someone with their head down
