I think he was pretty much constantly dealing with injuries in his prime years because everyone made him a target... I hope that isn't the case for Petey but I am starting to understand what Pittsburgh had to go through and it really sucks... Get well soon Petey we miss you already. you are also correct, that Crosby did get into a lot of injuries through his young years, I'm just saying nothing like Crosby getting into so many injuries before he hit 20. It's sad. also on travis Green video, my gosh, is Travis Green only passing me off? 2 guys get tangled up? Kota lost his check knowing he won't catch Petey breaking out so he hooked him. &^@# you kotanaimi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"lower body, shouldn't..............." reports probably waiting for a response or at least waiting for him to finish his sentence.... right?? I thought he was going to say something maybe pause a little, but nope. He just shuts the &^@# up. also "he's staying with the team"......... he's obviously asking what's going to happen, beyond 24 hours, we know he's going to be with the team and jump on the bus and head to the air port or hotel, we know that dumbass, we want to know what's the next major step for Pettersson as in, is he going to be sent back to Vancouver, or what. WTH. He will stay with the team, tomorrow Pettersson is not going to see a doctor because he's going to eat breakfast first, WE KNOW THAT, whats the out look plan.

Or maybe you and all the others saying this are wrong. The COACH said he watched it lots and it's his best player. Do you think he didn't talk to Petey about it? It was an awkward fall. CDC looks like a bunch of pathetic passive aggressive cry babies. I'm so f****** embarrassed to be associated with CDC sometimes. 1 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There shouldn't even of been an awkward fall because Kotkaniemi shouldn't of engaged in that situation..but he did, and not EP is hurt because of it. And you are sitting here saying it didn't deserve any repercussion, for accidentally possibly ending the young kids (and the teams) playoff hopes. Yes, he didn't deserve any repercussion. People saying "oh but they could play him harder and finish their checks". That's how they should be playing regardless of someone getting hooked (couldn't tell you the last time a hook called for someone to be beaten up). Should the canucks play hard, finish their checks, and be tough on stars? Yes. Should the canucks only do this after EP gets hooked? No they should always do it. Should the canucks send a goon to end the kids career for hooking EP? No. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dazzle Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 4 minutes ago, The 5th Line said: A hook that possibly results in a knee injury. This wasn't a regular hooking play. You're not even making sense "they should already be doing that?" They should already be playing someone extra hard and finishing extra checks? Only do it after EP get's hooked? What in gods name are you talking about? Send a goon out to end the kids career? wtf you are completely missing the point to all of this. This is probably the first time I've actually agreed with something you said. Yeah, I don't know why people think that is a 'hockey play'. I'm not saying it was dirty, nor do I think that Kotkaniemi meant to injure him, but it was a senseless hook that ended up in an injury. Why did Kotka think that the hook was necessary for him well away from the play? Yes there are sometimes scrums and a light hook/slash is okay here and there. The way that he got "tangled" was beyond light and that is my complaint about it. It was completely unnecessary, much like Matheson's play. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nucker 67 Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 You never see a Canucks player go after a rookie star player like that. Pettersson's been targeted and given cheap shots all year, and no one has really come to his rescue, other than Brock. How pathetic, having to rely on the other star player to stand up for him. I'm upset at the reaction from the Canucks, and Green. I did appreciate Granlund at least stepping up a bit and punching Kot in the face to take the 2 minute penalty. So, there was a bit of retribution I suppose. Just really unfortunate for Petey. The Canucks are definitely am different team without him. Sutter seems okay with it though. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The canucks should be finishing their checks everytime. They should also be making it hard for opposing teams stars to do anything. They shouldn't be cheapshotting people out of vengeance. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weird how the coach, all the players and some fans agree it's a hockey player and a group of fanatics call it super dirty and deserving of being cheapshotted.

Who is talking about cheap shotting? Why are you bringing up things like "end the kids career" and "cheapshotting"? That's not what I'm saying should happen That's what everyone has been saying, that Guddy should go make him pay. Guddy is huge and this is a kid, he would ruin him and make the canucks look like idiots. 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokes Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 What I saw was plain and simple, two rookies battling it out to see who better than the other. Then one got over zelous because he is afterall a rookie and got tangled up. No need to talk about protecting Pettersson and retrobution and all that just a couple of rookies making rookie mistakes. Pettersson is not seriously hurt because if he was he would not be traveling with the team so not a big deal. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps, as fans, we cherish Pettersson so much and any time anything happens to him, we might over-react a bit and panic. But saying that, the Canucks are not as good a team without him, so it's natural to be concerned and want retribution. I believe the attack from behind from Kotkaniemi was intentional and dirty, but maybe he'll get his some day too. Karma can be a B. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post aGENT Posted January 4, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted January 4, 2019 Hockey's a tough sport, you can't put him in a protective bubble. Plays like that happen like 20+ times a game. Should JK have gotten an interference/holding penalty? Absolutely. Beyond that, the apparent and hopefully minor, injury was largely coincidental/unfortunate. A better third from the Canucks (whether that was 'pushback' or scoring etc) would have certainly been better (that was a pretty lackluster effort) but people calling for the likes of Guddy to squash the poor FIN kid like a bug (which make no mistake, he would do, if he did what people are asking for) is just asinine. Granny gave him a shot and I'm sure a few guys had words for him. Not sure why people are expecting some 'Hanson brother' like Slap Shot style response in this day and age. 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why are you bringing up things like "end the kids career" and "cheapshotting"? That's not what I'm saying should happen I agree. Like I said in two other threads, forget the EP40 takedown. When Domi crosschecked Granlund then accused him of diving that should of induced a scrum. But nothing happened and they didn't even score on the PP. When we bring up toughness why do people instantly bring up Berutzzi/Moore or McSorley/Brashear? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
