  1. Pure scum move by Bouchard he knows exactly what he is doing. I’ve never seen a blatant attempt to make a known injury worse in the nhl

  2. Great breakdown and worthy suspension. I like your rules. It would clean up the dirty part of hockey immensely.

    I’m signing up to be a ref this summer so these videos are very interesting and useful

  3. Definitely could be a scum move but not a suspension.

    But this ridiculous post season, Florida has injured multiple players for good and got nothing. The Bennett scum move intentionally injuring Stolartz is an example that didn't even get a penalty. See how that works? And Stolartz may have a permanent injury now.

    But somehow in Bettman world this is allowed if you are Florida and you need to sell seats.

  4. Dirty play by Bouchard. Its like i said in previous videos the league needs to come in and deal with these out of play crosscheck,slashed, and elbows and so on. It causes players to lose their tempers and go after injuries. As much as everyone wants to pretend nhl players aren't trying to injure players they are they all want to win and they know they dont get many chnaces. When dri had the high ankle sprain every game someome whacked him in the ankle, mark stone with his back issues is constantly getting cross checked in the back. Their probably should be some rule about targeting an injury but i also understand its impossibility hard to judge

  5. Yes because we all know players go out of their way to injure other players, why wouldn't you show what led up to this play 🤔 ? I know because then you wouldn't have a bullshit excuse to pick on one player.

  6. Oilers fan, so take this with a grain of salt: does bouchard’s stick actually touch hintz’ foot or does he just smack the ice next to as mind games? Hintz’ reaction is somewhat delayed and more of a flinch, and it kinda looks like theres some white space between the stick when it stops and the foot. Lastly, if you were a dallas player and saw that a real slash like that, would you not rush bouchard? If I’m wrong and there was contact, bouchard should be turfed for multiple games, thats not hockey.

  7. If I hadn't learned to lay on a two hander once and while, I’d have never left Oakville. – E Bouchard

  8. OK, I guess I gotta be the first to say – that stick never got anywhere NEAR Hintz'z foot. 3-4 inches away at least.

  9. Lotta people who never played even beer league here lol

    I’ve literally taken one of these every Wednesday and I’m no fuckin superstar.

    “Give your balls a fucking tug bud”

    “We’re not playing tennis”

  10. So sick of these plays. I would love to see a season with real suspensions for non-hockey plays like this, even in the playoffs.

  11. Clearly not a legal hockey play. You can see him watching for the foot to go down first before the slash. Very different than the typical slash where you are whacking at the puck.

  12. If all these types of actions were called then I would agree that this one play is desiring of some type of discipline, but unfortunately the league doesn't want to call many infractions and this is now in that category. So in today's hockey, this is just another play.

  13. Even as an Oilers fan I am ashamed that Bouchard did this but I don’t think he should get seven games since suspension work differently in the playoffs

  14. Now I don't feel bad that he was choke by ekblad. Oilers are playing dirty just like panthers even though I root for panthers.

  15. Dallas stars and their fans are pussies .. The score board shows it.. lol how’s the tee time bookings going dallas? Should be able to tee off Friday morning… BYE BYE STARS
