DO YALL WANT A BOXC posted:hockey is a physical game. there are like two areas that haven't been legislated out: head down when you should have your head up, and ducking/flinching like Girard did last year on the Barbashev hit. taking it further would yield a different, less physical, less entertaining game. part of the skill is guys being smart enough to avoid getting hosed up when they should be able to avoid it. the counterplay is: don't stickhandle like a 10-year-old lol 99% of nhl players have figured out that trying to permanently injure one of their coworkers just because they put themselves in a vulnerable position is not actually a good thing. There are plenty of players that will pull up a bit on a check if it’s going to kill the guy. They can still lay a check and play the body but not be headhunting shitheads like Trouba

I guess Trouba will learn that next year if you're going to try to give out concussions you should do it before the 3rd period of game 7 if you want to impact the series more.

This thread is like 73% of the way to arguing for bringing back goons. It’s the playoffs and no one’s gonna pull up on a fully legal hit like that. If you’re really that upset about it then you should be arguing for a rule change. USA Hockey seems to have figured it out.

You can get rid of it and no-one will care that its gone. It won't change the game or make it less exciting unless excitement is literally concussing people to you
