-Vintage Canuck- Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 @icemancometh Perry on Zucker hit: "I was committed. I tried to let up. It’s hard. It happened so fast. It’s unfortunate." "I don’t go out there looking to hurt guys. That’s not the way I am. That’s not me as a person. It is what it is." "Well, obviously you don’t wan to miss games and be suspended or whatever. I want to help this team win. That’s my goal." On whether he might be judged by the result of the hit than his intention, Perry said, "Possibly."

CB007 Posted March 13, 2013 Author Share Posted March 13, 2013 Isn't this why they dress so many goons? Maybe Konopka should be more concerned with people taking liberties than instigating a fight with weise in lopsided wins. Also the guy trying to justify the hit "he shouldn't of been admiring his pass" "he wouldn't of gotten much if the guy wasn't injured" Those are bad reasons for not being suspended. Horton was admiring his pass doesn't mean the Rome hit was ok. Perry knows what he is doing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NightHawkSniper Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 Late hit? It was less than a half of second when the puck left his stick Maybe Zucker should be aware of his surroundings, rather than admiring his passes. Seriously, CDC has some sort of vendetta against Perry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maninthebox Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 It's odd how a "late" hit has little to do with the actual passage of time and more to do with the distance the puck has traveled away from the hit. Careless hit at worst, only late in slow motion, bit high due to body position and size + Perry exploding upward, did not leave his feet. meh should be 2 games based on other suspensions but I won't be surprised either way.

THERETOOL Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 I cant stand him , but I dont think he should get more than a game or 2 .. this sport is so fast .. he just looked like he was finishing his check .. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wallstreetamigo Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 And FYI, there wasn't any answer to Perry by the Wild. No one shoved him around, no one did nothing. Maybe they didn't have any muscles on the ice, but somebody should do something to Perry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wallstreetamigo Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 On the hit I don't see an elbow which is good. Reckless for sure. Not sure if he was trying to hurt Zucker intentionally though. Didn't see like he was targeting the head so much as he expected Zucker to not keep his head down. Not excusing him but I just don't think it is as terrible as some. I also didn't think Torres' hit on Hossa was as far outside the lines as his punishment suggested either and the hit by Rome was a penalty at most.

MrsCanuck Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 2 games I'd say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Everybody Hates Raymond Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 He leaves his feet and, in my opinion, it was pretty clearly intentional. Too bad he's a star. Not too much different than the Hossa hit where Shanny showed some nuts and threw the book at Torres. Obviously his hit isn't as bad as Torres, but it's still up there. Should be ten to fifteen for Perry, but wah, he's a star, the Ducks can't play the same hockey without him! Well, maybe he should think before endangering another player with his cheap shots. He'll get two games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Aerosex Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 I don't think it was that late, Zucker shouldn't be watching his pass like that. Still, high hit and it was a little late (not much, but enough for them to dish out a suspension). I'd guess 3 games, especially if Zucker's injured, as that seems to factor into suspension length. There's no elbow, no leaping. He's got his elbow tucked, and his left skate on the ice at contact. As much as I hate Corey Perry, my big problem with the hit is Zucker being unaware as hell. You're in the show, you should know to keep your head up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xbox Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 Perry needs to spend a long time thinking about his dirty tactics.... It doesn't look like an elbow (he tucks it in), but late and he launched. No need for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DooBie604 Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 If we are basing this on what's been handed out in the past then he should get about 2 games. He is a first time offender and if Keith got only 5 games for a flying elbow to the head of Daniel then I can't imagine this getting more than 3. I'm not a fan of Perry because of his antics but his elbow was down, he popped up but didn't leave his feet to lunge at the player and it was only a tiny bit late.

Quoted Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 Thought four was a lot, but not totally out to lunch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soren5556 Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 I was hoping for 5 but 4 is completely reasonable, it was an ugly hit that shouldn't have even happened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spliced Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 What is with that video?! It shows Perry has a history, but I thought that goes away after 18 months. where a player does not have another suspension for 18 months, his next suspension will be treated as a "first" offense.
