Roberts Posted December 7, 2016 Share Posted December 7, 2016 Talk about Philip Larsen's injury here, plus I'll try to post some updates ASAP. UPDATE: Philip Larsen is alert and responsive but has been taken to hospital for further evaluation/observation. "Philip Larsen was taken to hospital mainly for precautionary reasons" Taylor Hall's response: “I’m looking to make contact there, but I never want to see a guy laying on the ice there like that,” Hall said after the game, per Chris Ryan of NJ.com. “I only know how to play the game one way, and you’ve got to play it hard. But like I said, I feel terrible. “When you see him laying on the ice like that, he’s a former teammate of mine, and I just would have loved to make a hit there and continue the play. I hope he’s OK.” Happy 27th birthday to Philip Larsen! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AngelicHearts Posted December 7, 2016 Share Posted December 7, 2016 That was brutal. I hope he will be okay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BI3KSALLENT Posted December 7, 2016 Share Posted December 7, 2016 Hard to watch all those skates kick him in the head as he's laying there knocked out. Hope he gets well soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt_T83 Posted December 7, 2016 Share Posted December 7, 2016 Looks like the principal point of contact was the head. Reminds me a lot of Todd Bertuzzi's hit on Barret Jackman back in the '04 playoffs. Taylor Hall will get a phone call, but since it was a Canuck injured he'll get one game at most. This league is a joke. I think I'm about done with hockey, the way the NHL treats the Canucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xereau Posted December 7, 2016 Share Posted December 7, 2016 Larsen will be suspended for running into Hall's shoulder at 30 miles per hour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't usually minus people and I'm the king of bad taste. However, I do not like this comment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
detooned Posted December 7, 2016 Share Posted December 7, 2016 The worst part for me is how his head is hit by at least 3 skates, 2 of them Canucks! I can't believe I'm saying this but I really hope it's only a concussion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt_T83 Posted December 7, 2016 Share Posted December 7, 2016 Just now, xereau said: Larsen will be suspended for running into Hall's shoulder at 30 miles per hour. Sounds about right. The league will point out that Larsen attempted to hit Hall head-on-head. Luckily, however, Taylor Hall managed to raise his shoulder to block Larsen's head, protecting himself from injury.

Crabcakes Posted December 7, 2016 Share Posted December 7, 2016 Hall had him lined up but you can't really call the result intent since Larsen walked right into it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roberts Posted December 7, 2016 Author Share Posted December 7, 2016 I do like how Markstrom tried to protect his head from skates and stuff if you look closely. He's a good guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattJVD Posted December 7, 2016 Share Posted December 7, 2016 Seeing as the NHL like to hand out discipline based on the result, I would imagine this will be a significant suspension. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Jay 22 Posted December 7, 2016 Share Posted December 7, 2016 That was an ugly scene of Larsen just lying motionless while players were clustering over him. I hope everything is ok. Good on the Canuck who dropped the gloves with Hall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What was wrong with my comment anyways? The team shouldn't be playing an undersized guy who looks like he's going to piss himself every time he's out there. It was just a matter of time This was not the time or place for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
