This was not a dirty hit. Laine is soft.

[@howardcraigiv518]

That hit was not Dirty. It was very unavoidable at the moment in time. Wrong place at the wrong time, plus it was a Rookie with not much NHL experience, he couldn’t avoid it. If anything what Arber Xhekaj did was pretty dirty. He attempted to fight and attack a player from behind and then continued to beat and keep nailing a downed skater repeatedly. In my opinion i was surprised it wasn’t more of a Fine. I see Arber Xhekaj getting Flamed on Social Media and other Sports Media Outlets be his classless act.

[@gravityguy972]

Dirty hit what game were you watching ? It was accidental

[@enriqueleon1169]

Yes it was a Pare knee on knee on Laine, terrible luck for both Laine and the team. But what on earth happened to Reinbacher? Didn't look like much.

[@Jimdaewong16]

Marchand gets nothing for slew footing guys into he boards intentionally. A Leaf makes a slight distance error and it's dirty dirty dirty. Not good.

[@James-p8u]

Hey! Leave 63 outta this, he’s changed his ways, he’s the Captain 👨‍✈️!

[@earlmasters8447]

And laines just a softy thats why he gets shuffeled around the league

[@solarion9802]

If the Leafs move on from Marner, they'll likely come to recognize that Matthews is every bit the playoff choke artist Marner is. Auston is 25th in regular season pts/60 since coming into the league, and he's 113th in playoff pts/60 during that time. Matthews, a near pure goal scorer is a career 20th in goals/60 during the regular season...and 46th in playoff goals/60 since the 2016-2017 season. Notable players ahead of Matthews in career playoff goals/60 are Silfverberg(9th), Guentzel(14th), Smith-Pelly(15th), Kyrou(17th)...etc. Both Matthews and Marner are playoff chokers and both are hugely overpaid for what they produce in the post season...Matthews is just more so.

[@m_m_m_beer8917]

I don't disagree with your comment. I think though that Matthews can break out in the playoffs this year. I am definitely not a Leafs fan, but I still think he is capable of producing when the going gets tougher in the post-season. I'm hoping for the same here in BC with Pettersson in this season's playoffs. This time next year we will see. You may be absolutely right, but I am hoping not.

[@solarion9802]

@@m_m_m_beer8917 55 post season games played in 8 seasons. Not exactly a small sample size at this point...Matthews just isn't a big game player.

[@MySundin13]

Wasn't dirty. inexperienced rookie who couldn't avoid it. And the Jackeye fella charged and attacked the Leaf player FROM BEHIND. He got roasted for it on all sports Media

[@bostonwarrior4824]

Yeah doesn’t belong in the league. Goon league move and arber could’ve really hurt someone. Like that was a straight up mugging.

[@ivantot506]

At this point i just assume Zegras will be 35, playing for Ducks last game before retiring and there would still be trade rumors

[@christophermurphy2393]

A dirry knee how man? Laine tried to skate in between two defenceman like he was Connor mcdavid. It was not dirty and tons of people and insiders agree. Id love to know what was dirty about it? So your saying a prospect wanted to purposely take out Laines Knee? Cmon i thought you were a least a bit smarter then that

[@7jorjaty]

The reason why the Leafs player didn't get discipline from the league is because it WAS IN NO WAY INTENTIONAL!!! How you can determine it was is beyond me! Jeez Laine was doing the splits gliding down the ice and the Leafs player tried to interfere in his path but the knee on knee was 100% unintentional. You know as I do with a fine to the Habs player had they thought the Leafs player tried to hurt Laine in the preseason and who I might add isn't in the NHL they wouldn't of hesitated throwing the book of discipline at him! Get your facts right! Let me guess you are a Leafs hater, Habs or senators fan?????

[@johnsmith7345]

I didn't see it as a dirty hit either. Yes the hit was to Laine's knee but Pare was not targeting knee to knee contact he was trying to get in his way.

[@toewstokane9023]

Problem is it’s preseason, the guy is a nobody minor leaguer stepping up and throwing out a knee on Laine. Dude deserved every punch Xhekaj landed x10.

[@jeffreycairns767]

We all know that if the DoPS could find a way to throw the book at a Leafs player, he would. It's happened many times before

[@danielmontreal007]

In Montreal we don't defend a dirty hit's. No one defended Max Domi with his sucker punch on Ekblad when he was a Habs, no one. That's the fundamental difference between the Montreal Canadiens and Toronto Leafs. Defending such a dirty move is voluntary complicity. That's the gutter level of discussion. The same attempt against Lane Hutson in the same game but it didn't work, coincidence? Paré's smile after the game says more than words. Knee on knee is one of the most vicious and dangerous hit in the NHL, this should be easy to understand and yet?

[@bostonwarrior4824]

I can see where u are coming from, but I totally disagree with you, arber has no right to do that that’s a goon league move and, doesn’t belong in the NHL. He should’ve been suspended 10 games plus. It is comparable to the Burtuzzi incident. Stuff like that doesn’t belong in the league it’s goon league. Knee on knee was unfortunate but not dirty. And that’s been happening a lot the past year. You know what hasn’t been happening someone getting getting jumped and mugged. Because players better than to do that.

[@jeffreycairns767]

Had it been a Leafs player that did that, it would of been

[@claviclenotch1876]

Do not pay Igor 12 mill. 10.75 max.

[@billrowen9417]

Not a dirty hit! Better get those glasses checked cause apparently you're blind cause his knee on point of contact was directly under him not sticking out and why no suspension. With video proof and picture showing exactly that. So, better get your facts right!

[@meshworkj]

The knee on knee wasn’t dirty, just happened.

[@shawnperry3815]

Indefensible behaviour from a career AHLer. He clearly and intentionally stuck his leg out, watch a slowdown replay. Everyone knows knee on knee hits have a high percentage chance of injury, so by intentionally sticking out his knee, it goes without saying he intended to injure. I hope the other Xhekaj takes care of this guy in the AHL, that is, unless this guy turtles again.

[@mikemcgee3636]

Lets see if he fights Reaves face to face

[@jeffreycairns767]

Xhekaj will need a net. Lol

[@sebsaavysworld8469]

Reaves lol. Reaves has played against Xhekaj many times since their first little altercation and not only has Reaves done nothing he has been invisible and that's after Reaves cried like a bitch after that game about their little tussle in game one last year. Xhejak is not afraid of Reaves, Xhejak started that little fight and he ended it to when he threw a couple punches, out muscled him and tossed him into the net. Xhejak went right over to Reaves after their penalties were done and asked Reaves to go again and Reaves skated away. As mentioned Reaves whined like a bitch after the game about the fight yet they have played against each other multiple since then and Reaves has done nothing, They played against each other in the preseason game before this last one , Xhejak even hit him with a couple body checks during the game and what did Reaves do, Nothing. Not only has he done nothing since then he has been invisible when playing against Xhejak

Your Habs fan is showing. A dirty dirty hit. Give your head a shake. Laine has been around, he should know how not to get clobbered by now. Oh, yeah, Laine is not going to bring you the cup. It was a good move, but he wasn't ever going to be a savior. It didn't look intentional to me, at the same time, Jerkguy did not drive anyone's head into the ice nor did he use his stick.

[@steveciancone8941]

As a Habs fan, the Paré knee wasn’t intentional. He was caught flat footed. Yeah it pisses me off, but the kids got a peanut for a brain and is going to spend his irrelevant career in the minors. Hopefully Laine is back sooner than later, gotta feel for the guy.

[@4.0.7.7]

Heres a piece of advice. Stick to reporting the news and leave your personal opinions to yourself. Take it or leave it. Never gonna be able to grow a channel always getting personal digs in. He just can’t help himself. I absolutely knew without a shadow of doubt his take on the whole Laine injury would be so incredibly biased. Some people just don’t have the ability to think critically. Let their emotions get the better of them. I mean I get it I’d be pissed too if the big UFA my team acquired was injured before the season but it was simply nothing more than an unfortunate play. Anyone with any bit of sense knows that no player is stupid enough to extend their knee with the intent one going knee on knee. That could just as easily backfire and risk their own career. So calling this dirty is completely out of touch with reality. He sticks his knee out with the intention of preventing Laine from getting by. That’s all. It suck’s and I feel for Laine. Can’t seem to catch a break. Was really looking forward to seeing him thrive in Montreal but I guess that all on hold. Hope he has a speedy recovery.
