2018 NHL Offseason Thread- RMNB except in cases of Domestic Violence or Backloaded Contracts

I didnt see the game, but a lot of people are saying that Ekblad was giving him cheap shots all game long.

[Cail]

Only have 4 in fantasy so far! We need at least 4 more!

[Melena]

Fixed.

Fucking Nostrodomous in here

[synistar]

Honestly he should have gotten at least 1 regular season game. But alas, the joke about player safety continues hence it was an easy prediction.

Documentary I happened to catch when I was on vacation. Anyone else see it? Just sayin, Ekblad probably wouldn't feel so comfortable with cheap shots if he knew his shit was gonna get pushed in for doing it.

[NynJa]

Some of the shit I read on social media and on SB is that Domi deserved more for sucker punching someone with a concussion history...which is probably the stupidest thing i read. If hes a high risk candidate for CTE due to his history, then he shouldnt be cleared to play.

[Obsidian]

He deserved more because it was just a super dangerous thing to do to anybody.

[NynJa]

Im just sayin, Ekblad was hackin n slashin all night, and its not like Domi just sucker punched him out of nowhere. Ekblad knew Domi was up in his face, he threw two gloved jabs at him and his reaction was to look at the ref instead of trying to tie Domi up.

Its still a sucker punch to an unwilling combatant, but to say Ekblad shouldnt have expected it is wrong.

Trade Ovi. Trade Holtby. Fire Reirden

Ovi didn't even celebrate his goal tonight, he actually seemed sad he scored.

Domi is a shit disturber. Won’t be his last time getting suspended.

Domi is just an all around garbage human

Domi went way over the line regardless of prior Ekblad taps/slashes/etc. In the words of Mike Leggo, "you can't do that." Should have been suspended 1 regular season game. It's not Tie Domi on Ulf, but it wasn't great.

[Thoronas]

The suspension for the rest of the preseason is fucking laughable. Like how is that in any way a deterrent of that behaviour?

Anyways Canucks played the bottom 2 lines of LA and barely squeaked out a win. This team is gonna be trash 5 on 5 but oh lordy am I liking the potential of our first unit power play with Boeser and Pettersson on it.

If he expected a sucker punch it wouldn't be called a sucker punch.

[NynJa]

Sooooo he was hacking and slashing at Domi all night, Domi has enough, gets in his face, gives him 3 gloved punches while continuing to be in his face...and he expects Domi to just stop before the refs break it up?

"It’s dumb. I think he’s stupid for doing it," Ekblad continued. "In the end it’s hockey. That’s the way it goes. Scores will get settled at a later date.”

Maybe he should undergo concussion protocol again, because saying that is a LOT stupider than Domi punching him.
