I don't think you're fair to Perry. He was trying to get out of the way. Hockey is a physical game. I'm ok as long as it wasn't a dirty hit.

There was nothing terrible about it other than terribly unlucky for Tavares, I hope he’s ok
Trainers did a crap job
And foligno is way bigger and tougher than Perry .
No need to fight there but Perry took it. He didn’t even throw even when foligno slipped
Go back to the leafs thread if you’re going to start that crap

I 100% understand why Leaf fans are upset at Perry and if the same happened to us, we’d be upset also.Swerny wrote: ↑ There was nothing terrible about it other than terribly unlucky for Tavares, I hope he’s ok

However, it did look accidental but at least Perry and Foligno took care of business and now the teams can move on.
I hope JT is alright. Never want to see a guy get hurt.
On a side note, looks like Staal is earning his keep.

JT looked a bit unsettled as the trainers and doctors were trying to help him. I guess even he was freaking out.

I actually kinda respect Perry for not putting his heart into that fight.
The guy is friends with JT.
Taking the lumps is the right move, from my understanding of the unwritten code of the game.

Meh. Maybe, if it was intentional or possibly intentional. But in this case it wasn’t even close. So Foligno was in the wrong.

Awesome to see that Price has shaken off that rust.
The Habs have played a strong physical game, and he's totally been there when they've needed him to be.

Why didn’t the Habs take a timeout after that icing?

I'm surprised no one here is talking about Anderson. He came ready to play tonight.

We do have the benefit though of watching the replay over and over and over to understand clearly it was not intentional.random pattern wrote: ↑ Meh. Maybe, if it was intentional or possibly intentional. But in this case it wasn’t even close. So Foligno was in the wrong.
Foligno, might not have even seen the play that happened in high-speed. All he sees is his captain down on the ground.

And like I said earlier, I wasn’t too concerned about Price and rust (I know I wrote what I wrote before his performance in Laval, LOL!).
Anyhow, lots of hockey left. Just hope the Habs can find ways to win.
Thoughts to JT and his family. I hope he’s ok and nothing lingering and long-term.

Ashamedly, before the goal (obviously), I was wondering why Byron was even playing. Not that he was playing lousy or anything, but I thought one of the guys sitting out could do more. Oops, my bad .
Yeah, I agree that it was good that Perry didn't fight back. Obviously intentional.
FYI, Foligno is 6'0", 211 lbs. Perry is 6'3", 206 lbs. When they stood face-to-face, Perry looked bigger. Must have been the angle.
Was the hit intentional? Well, two guys who have played in the NHL (Bieksa and Hrudy) didn't think so, so no point in me giving my opinion .

Seeing or not seeing the play is not a factor, and the same goes with intentional or not.
The Captain was taken out by a knee to the head.
The guy might be done for who knows how long.
This demands retribution.
In this case, it was handled immediately by Foligno, who isn't even the top goon for the team.
