Vancouver & Washington 1st Period Scrum

[@nicholaslouie7590]

Dubois should’ve gotten the boot. Attempted a knee on knee hit, tried to fight Hughes who had no interest in doing so, and finally gave him a pretty good cheap shot at the end. The fact that Hughes got a penalty for defending himself is crazy, and how this wasn’t a 5 on 3 is insane. Refs are a joke, the league is a joke.

[@runkdapunk8622]

[@JP-pr9re]

@runkdapunk8622 lol what was incorrect in this assessment? Video is pretty clear. Dubois leads with his knee on Hughes and trips him and then goes out of his way to start stuff with him in the scrum afterwards, and then cheap shots him after the scrum is over. Dubois is 6 inches taller and 45 pounds heavier then Hughes which is the definition of picking on someone too small for you. If Hughes had been trying to start something with Dubois or playing dirty, then this would be a different story but he wasn't doing either of those things. This all stems from Dubois getting deked and being forced to take a penalty and him being embarrassed and angry about it. Pretty simple and easy to see. Dubois was just being petty
