24K PureCool Posted January 19, 2021 Share Posted January 19, 2021 (edited) Wait so our superstar don't get away with things? Clear proof the league is colluding against us! Edited January 19, 2021 by 24K PureCool 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JeremyCuddles Posted January 19, 2021 Share Posted January 19, 2021 Did this deserve it's own thread? Discuss. Real talk though, no. Does it matter? Also no. Frustrations boiled over. And rightfully so. Guy has stunk up 95% of his shifts so far. Maybe this'll get him going. Along with Miller's return. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just wanted to see if I was jaded or losing my mind In him getting a fine for that. Like when Sedin’s would get abused by the Rat and Duncan Keith and then when they did a anything were crucified. Just seems wrong. appreciate your perspective as well, I’d say more like 94% of his shifts though.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kanucks25 Posted January 19, 2021 Share Posted January 19, 2021 Yes. If someone else did what he did to a Canuck, we'd be asking for it. 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

knucklehead91 Posted January 19, 2021 Share Posted January 19, 2021 Better a fine than a phone call. It’s hard to dispute this, a slash is typically on the legs, stick, hands or forearm... not in the chest... I’m okay with the fine and it shows Petey is playing with passion. He got a little carried away, but he’s sending a message, he won’t take sh!+ also I love how much Petey has been throwing the body around. He’s throwing a hit with full intent each shift 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curmudgeon Posted January 19, 2021 Share Posted January 19, 2021 Pure reaction borne of frustration. Guilty as charged. Do the crime, pay the fine. Moving on...... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flat land fish Posted January 19, 2021 Share Posted January 19, 2021 This is the problem with the nhl, completely legal to cross check a player when they don’t have the puck but you answer that and you get fined. I didn’t hate the slash, petey is probably not dropping the mitts anytime soon and there’s got to be some sort of deterrent for the checkers. Hopefully the group can get on track next time out.

Nave Posted January 19, 2021 Share Posted January 19, 2021 He acted in the heat of the moment, and didn't even do it high up. He did not deserve a fine. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kesler_sedins Posted January 19, 2021 Share Posted January 19, 2021 (edited) Pettersson slashed Monahan in the chest but notice Monahan embellished by grabbing his face when his face didn't even get affected... And I'm surprised Pettersson has gotten fined after all the abuse he has taken in the past that weren't even penalties let alone fines...

ChuckNORRIS4Cup Posted January 19, 2021 Share Posted January 19, 2021 He's lucky it was only a fine tbh, he literally 2 handed slashed him.... I always think of McSorley and what he did to Donald Brashear when I see players 2 hand slash someone, that stuff is dangerous. So to answer your question OP yes Petey deserved the fine. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
