phillyb Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 One of the top comments on YT is "Marchand should be suspended for this" hahahahaha. What am I missing here? Is there any context to this outside of Ekblad barely even touching Domi? Moreover though, I am legit concerned about Ekblad. The dude has a concussion history and just took one punch and ends up bloody as fuck (I know blood ≠ concussion). Is this dude made of glass?

josh Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 They need to stop kicking guys out of the game for actions like this. Suspend them starting next game Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vodka Drunkenski Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 I?m fine with tossing him, uncalled for and could potentially injure someone. You want to fight, square up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gravesy Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 That’s a bit shit from Domi tbh. 100% cheap shot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Getting mauled his next 3 shifts is more punishment than sitting out 1 game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-ERIK- Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 Ekblad should have defended himself a little better,it was obvious Domi wanted to rumble. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
josh Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 Ekblad should have defended himself a little better,it was obvious Domi wanted to rumble. Why? There was nothing happening, and other than Domi, it wasnt moving towards being a fight. Seriously, are we just going to condone guys going around and punching non-willing combatants with concussion history? this isn't Slap Shot.

Flynn Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 Ekblad isn't likely to fight much in the regular season, he sure as hell isn't going to fight in a pre-season game. Domi trying too hard to show they got a tough guy.. Josh is right though.. 5 in the box and spend the rest of the game answering for it. If Fla (or whom ever the team may be) lets it slide, thats their call. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Giacomin Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 Bullshit move. I'd be livid if it was a Ranger or worse Zibs. The suspension should include reg season games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 Pretty soft on not including any regular season games with this type of shit. The first two rabbit punches with his gloved hand were ok (to some extent) but the ungloved punch? Bush league. Preseason plus at least 3 regular season games. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stephen Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 He should've been punished one game but I'll have to say they're punishing him by playing on MTL. That's punishment enough Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There has to be some deterrent from above or guys are just going to get seriously hurt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There has to be some deterrent from above or guys are just going to get seriously hurt. Problem is, if you go for retribution next game, you risk suspension... during the regular season. Let them take care of this when it happens, first and foremost. Let the league deal with the hit after the players do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 Domi suckers Ekblad. He's concussed. The next time they meet, Thornton un-retires, pulls Domi off the bench and turns his face inside out. What's the point? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 You cant let guys get away with this shit when it involves a teammate. Right, so who came to Ekblad's defense in the moment? No one? OK, that's their problem. [PS, that's also dated thinking] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunny Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 It should be noted that Domi will likely destroy anyone that comes his way, anyways. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not the game 3 weeks later. Sure, Ekblad appreciates the sentiment... But appreciation is the only tangible result. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
