  1. Wilson still scared to fight reaves😭. He kept asking him and he wouldn’t. Then decides to go after dumba with 12 seconds left in game after reaves got off

  2. Absolute suicide pass, in the feet. Blame the teammate.

    No elbow, no excessive speed, didn't target the head. Kept shoulder low and didn't even really lay a boom. Looked more like an old school roller hockey hit than a modern NHL hit.

  3. The guys laying these clean hits should just skate away from whoever comes in wanting to fight. Let the instigators take the minutes. Give these guys a 2, 5, & 10. Fighting exists for self-policing of the game so it doesn't turn into a bloodbath. There was nothing about this hit to police. Play better if you don't want to get lit up. Otherwise, stop crying about it.

  4. If you watch it in slow motion there is some head contact, but the Suey pass is the reason he got DRILLED by Dumba…

  5. I'm glad to see Dumba remembers what happened the last time he had to fight for a clean hit he threw. He locked up with Oshie right away this time so he wouldn't misfire.

  6. My skate is untied…what do you mean? 💥 Did anyone get the plate number of that bus? And will someone answer that damned phone?⚰

    Oshie, you were warned that the GM Meeting discussed there were 85 fights started after legal hits INSTIGATED by players not involved in the hit, jumping the hitter and that only 12 Instigator Penalties were called this season. The GM's agreed they all want more enforcement of Instigator Penalty, which is 2 For Instigator, 5 for Fighting and a 10 minute Unsportsmanlike Misconduct…YOU WERE WARNED! If that doesn't work I heard the Instgator Penalty could become 4 or 5 minutes if the problem continues.

    From now on work it like a regular fight, chirp them, rough them and get a true drop the gloves & sticks & fight if you only want 5 for Fighting. Otherwise…shut up and live with the rules. If you don't like seeing hard hits, then go watch ballet or fainting goats!

  7. Atleast when Trouba throws a big hit like that he actually drops the gloves to fight.. not hug as hard as you can like dumba

  8. Clean Hit to the head 1:40?! LoL, and on Kirill was clean hit too (sarcasm), Revo did zero and all sota too, so I think, caps and Oshie was right.

  9. LOL 1:40 clean hit to the head, becomes "clean" as the hit on Kaprizov. May be hit become clean if it was said on TV, or ref was blind and didn't call? It's time to use own head to think, not only to repeat TV.

  10. Kuznetsov is a classless pos.. got exactly what he needed…go flap your arms like the bird you are now bud!!!

  11. NOT a clean hit. These announcers either never played, or are just trying to sway their audience. 3 Caps players responded immediately, not bc it was a hard check, but rather a clear, dirty hit. #DPS – Dumba 2 games (signed… ex-pro)

  12. Matt Martin says it best. Fights after clean hits? Yes. Player's have no time or luxury of reviewing the replay before responding to the hit, and regardless of if it's clean or not, you dont want other players trying to blow up your teammate. Fighting is part of the game. And everyone in the league should know if you try and take our guys head off, clean or not, you'll get a response.
