Tearloch7 Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 Forearm shiver, If you watch closely you see Hansen lead with his forearm. Warrants a suspension, imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Losing With Pride Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 No no.... Keith on Sedin.. that's an elbow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slegr Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 Hossa is Mr. Burns on skates. No intent by Hansen, he's just not that coordinated. If there is any kind of discipline, the NHL really has problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VintageForever420 Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 Look into it haahahahah what a joke the NHL is. Clean play, no intent to injure at all. Should have never been a penalty. He was going for the puck. Hossa is a bitch! Blackcoxs fans are arrogant and moronic as the usual. Nothing changes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rick 2.0 Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 Having watched the replay, Hansen either has really bad hand-eye co-ordination to catch that puck (he wasn't even close to an actual legitimate catching attempt with his hand), or he was leaning into the reach with the elbow after realizing he wasn't going to catch it and tried for the hit. Hate to say it, but its a bad hit, intentional or not. The other question is whether Hossa is really hurt as bad as he appeared to be. I suppose we'll find out soon enough whether her's out of the lineup next game, as a player with his history shouldn't be taking any risks. Speaking of the intentional or not argument, its funny to watch and listen to the difference between the Sportsnet and Comcast play-by-play. The Sportsnet cast all feel its a clean play, while the Comcast analysts all use the "forearm shiver" term. Obviously its not nearly as cut-and-dry as the Keith hit on Sedin, but still, its a bad hit by Hansen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bookie Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 Hansen's my favourite player on the team, but I'm not too cool with that hit. Sorry to say it, but yeah, minor suspension - not 5, I'd say 2 or 3 games. I guess that's going to be an unpopular opinion round here, but if I'm gonna get up in arms over bad hits against us, I feel like I need to call the ones we perpetuate as well.

-DLC- Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 I guess the Hawks conveniently have amnesia and forget the abuse they used to inflict on Lu in his crease? Ran right over him all the time? And yeah, Keith. Theirs was intentional and I don't think this was. Pot/kettle stuff. Hope Hossa's ok....never wish any player injury. Quite confident he will be, as the contact seemed pretty insignificant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kass9 Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 NHL will do something about just because it's blown up now.... Shouldn't have even been a penalty.. Ref only called it based on crowd reaction and Toews' crying.. Oh well, we've seen that before, a ref turning a blind eye (listen on players' judgement), changing a call.

WeWantTheCup33 Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 Pissed off at reading all this crap. Just a few of the comments too... (NHL.com) : "He is threat to NHL players. Hansen is the Matt Cooke of the West!" "..Tried to Knee Emery in the head after serving his TWO MINUTE penalty." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
