DeNiro Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 Of course it was an accident. I can't believe anyone in the media even started to suggest otherwise. Just look at the play. He's not even looking at where Karlsson's leg is. It was a freak play, just like Bieksa's two leg lacerations. When you skate around with giant blades on your feet, accidents are bound to eventually happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spliced Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 If there was anyone that deserved to be falsely accused of something it may be Matt Cooke. I'm just joking, but it is kind of on interesting twist off fate. Too bad for Karlsson, and too bad for us that watch hockey. The NHL just got a little more boring tonight.

Captain Aerosex Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 Despite his history, I think Cooke's innocent on the play. As for Karlsson...brutal, just brutal. Let's hope that this injury doesn't take away from his ability in the future, because that's one serious injury and he's an amazing talent. Here's hoping he makes a full recovery.

Blackberries Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 wow whatta douche cooke is, there is no reason for his leg to be that far out, it even looks like he makes a delibrate slicing motion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poetica Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 That really was a terrible accident. I wish him speedy recovery. I agree with DeNiro that these kinds of accidents are bound to happen with that many sharp blades on the ice. Just look at the game pics on the Canucks website and you can see how often their skates are off the ice and in dangerous areas. Seriously, it's amazing more guys don't get cut.

etsen3 Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 Damn looked really painful, we all remember when the same thing happened to Bieksa twice. I highly doubt it was intentional though. I doubt anyone would be accusing him of doing it on purpose if it weren't Matt Cooke. Unless Cooke is a complete ninja. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TOMapleLaughs Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 Definitely looked deliberate. No way Cooke needed his skate to come up and then down exactly on that spot on that particular play. Esp. considering it's Cooke, this should be looked at by Shanny. But i doubt he'd be suspended regardless. This pretty much destroys Ottawa's playoff hopes, you'd think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Go Faulk Yourself Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 If he's try to pin the guy with his leg as has been suggested, why was he not more conscious of where his actual leg was. Senators management isn't just up in arms because its cooke, its careless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghostsof1915 Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 Why do you have to lift your skate to pin him? Can't you keep your skate on the ice and do the same thing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackberries Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 cooke losing balance while going into the boards is the only thing that saves him, watching aaron wards breakdown, but when you watch it in slow motion it sure does look suspicious.. given that its cooke on the best defensman in the league I dont blame people for being suspicious.

Joel Heyman Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 Accidental, but yeah, with Cookie's history people have reason to wonder. We're lucky stuff like this doesn't happen more often what with the high speed of hockey and how often player's skates leave the ice. I was sure Lappy was gonna get cut last night when Kassian crushed Coyle and his legs went right up towards him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caboose Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 That looks pretty damn intentional, and regardless of his turning around his game Cooke's reputation is enough. I see that as a suspendeable play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
