Pacioretty hit on Sturm – Have your say!



Max Pacioretty steamrolled Nico Sturm, but his elbow was up a bit and overall he went a bit high. Was this clean or should it have been a penalty? Have your say!

  1. Looks like 67 is taking notes from Sam Bennet.

    Elevates into the hit, lets the puck go by, and tries to sneak a chicken wing into the Florida player's jaw.

    DOPS: clean hit
    Tough call: 6-10 games for a non-hockey play (coulda boxed him out, taken the puck)

    .. Leafs fans might have wanted 67 to target BobRobsky with it instead

  2. Well I see what fans are watching these. You can clearly see his fist contact his face. Sturm is tough though and doesn’t cry.

  3. Shoulder to shoulder? That one gets me. His shoulder hits him on the side of his face. Maybe you might have to slow it down even more. Plus his skates leave the ice

  4. Looks like a LOT of videos showing Leaf infractions while there are almost no Florida.videos of the same thing. How about you show the Tkachuck video where he tries to injur Marner at the end of the game.?

  5. I will say if there is a penalty it would be charging, lining up the player before the hit and then lifting is a charging penalty whether or not he touches the puck.
