The team needed to rally for that, I am sure 30 gm's and players wanted to thank Kass for that reaction 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was looking for it for sure, and hes a B for running away and I loved seeing Kass ragdoll him around the ice - but that was a clean hard hit, no head contact, didnt leave his feet and Kass had the puck. If you think that's dirty you need to watch more hockey and learn something. Tkpukeandchuck is a douche of the highest order, however as you say, that was a textbook hockey hit. Kassian was taken aback by it and lost his helmet. That and the fact that Zack is a total psycho led to the ragdolling of Tkachuk. Have to give it to Kassian for laying the smack down though.

So what's the difference between this hit and that hit? other then ones a Canuck player... Watching the Tkachuk hit, he took like 5 strides into Kass. Jake coasted into Nichushkin. He didn't take a single stride from the blueline in. Lol. With that said, both were good solid hits in my books. Kass didn't immediately go after Tkachuk from the clip I seen on Sportsnet. Tells me it was a good hit. Tkachuk also took out Giordano, so it's a double win in my books. Edit: I may have watched a different hit than the one you referenced. Lol. But one of Tkachuk's hits, the one I seen, looked good. Edited January 12, 2020 by N7Nucks 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toss in our residual love for Kassian and there’s plenty of bias to go around. I’m just happy that two rivals ended up with a beating and a suspension. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lest we forget this is the new NHL where 'toxic masculinity' like this isn't tolerated.

Darius Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 The weasel tkatchuk was smart and knew which buttons to push. He targeted kass knowing he would lose his cool. Knowing how to manipulate certain players is a characteristic of a good rat and I wouldn’t be surprised if daddy tkatchuk is feeding Matty boy some pointers. the difference is I think ol man tkatchuk would have answered the bell eventually. i was disappointed that zack fell for the tactics but it was satisfying seeing the rag dolling. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JeremyCuddles Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 Well, it was clear Tkachuk was running players specifically Kassian this game. Cleanly I'll add (first hit I seen could have been argued was a charge) but nonetheless you keep running at people they'll retaliate eventually. If Jake did the same hit on Nichushkin 3-4 times you'd bet players would take notice and start something with Jake. Nobody likes getting obliterated multiple times by the same guy. Lol. Tkachuk got exactly what he wanted though, you can laugh and say he got what was coming to him but he knew where things would go and Kass played right into his hands. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beary Sweet Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 Looking forward to the test. Won't be easy but a win gets us within a point of the division lead with a game in hand. Our division is so wild. We deserve some home ice advantage if we make the playoffs. 3-2 Canucks win. Bo, Brock and Miller with the goals. GCG!

That's what I mean both are clean hits but people are acting crazy , tree even mentioned when he was here he would have to fight evening after a clean hit , I Don't agree with that.. to me it's two clean hits and MT did his job and it's not like burrows never pulled any crap... Im all for hating MT but to say you wouldn't want him on your team cause of the stuff he pulls , come I on , look at our dirt bag list kesler ,burr , Cooke and the list keeps going, MT hasn't pulled anything one of them wouldn't have done Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
