Couldn't agree more. Nobody is buying a ticket to see Mike Matheson next game. Someone might have to see Pettersson. |

It was a predatory. He went out of his way (After being embaressed by EP40 for like the 4th time in the game) To hunt him down and exact revenge.
exacting revenge for what exactly? having his ankles broken a couple times I guess.
Its an over the phone hearing, so Im expecting nothing.
I just hope Petterson isnt affected too much by this and continues to play his game.
Matheson will get 1 game if were lucky.....

Garbage plays continue to set the league back. Using physical play to separate man from puck has and always will have a place in the sport. throwing someone from behind to the ice against the boards because you got your ankles broken cannot have a place in the game longer term. I actually thing that the league as a whole has gotten the whole headshots are unacceptable message. I think now the league needs to come down harder on the guys that continue to not get the message.
The NFL & NBA protect and market their stars and young players. The NHL does neither. |

These kinds of things have no place in the game! I fear this kind of nonsense will continue until the league finally learns to hand out punishment that is harsh enough to act as a deterrent.
A phone hearing means he is getting far less than he deserves. |

Settle down. Petterson was wearing pads. Fluke injury.

It was a dirty play he could have checked EP cleanly but instead decides to throw him to the ice. What is this hockey or WWE. Matheson should be suspended at least 3 - 5 games. |

Dude he didn't exactly Undertaker choke-slam him. It was rough but not pre-meditated. Unfortunate result but in the act, it happens so fast, you can't call this intentional. |

Didnt see anything like this when Gudbrandson went way out of his way to mow down Dube in the season opener & Vancouver fans were quite giddy on our thread about it.
Now it happens to one of their smaller very talented players. Welcome to our world. This crap happens all the time. Either penalize it properly or get rid of the instigator & let the players police it themselves. |

I think if a player intentionally injures another player, they should be suspended until the injured player is healthy enough to come back. That would go a long way towards taking this kind of dangerous play out of the sport. |

Not premeditated? the guy got embaressed and followed EP into the corner so he could do what he did.
He had a plan and followed through with.
Not to mention it was like the 3rd 4th time in that game that EP made MM look like a fukkin pylon. |

VAncouver fans all agreed it was a stupid hit and your player stepped up and answered the bell..
Whats the problem? are you still mad your revenge getter has a broken face? |

I got nothing wrong with the hit.
But I have to endure our GM signing countless bottom of the lineup scrubs who aren't that great at hockey. I'd at least like them to step in and say something to Matheson.
If the kid has twice as many points 8, as the next closest player in 4
You might want to stand up for him. |

Canucks not doing anything in response is the story. Soft as kittens. May bring one to my niece’s baby shower next week. |

Many Canucks fans praised Hamonic for what he did.

Travis Green gets that Matheson needs to answer for that pathetic display of lack of sportsmanship. Not sure there is a single player on that roster that is up for the task though. We do know the NHL will not do anything meaningful. Petteerson should lawyer up because that was an assault, not a hockey play. Mathesn is absolutely pathetic and should be embarrased for his actions. The kid is 19 years old for crissakes. |

Kevin, you are very very wrong. I dont recall a single canuck poster giving anything but massive praise for Hamonic for standing up for Dube and fighting Gudbranson (despite the outcome). |

Honestly I don't see anything dirty about the play at all. Doesn't hit him in the head, yes gives him a bit of a crosscheck to knock him into the boards, but nothing more than a 2 minute penalty in my view. Calling it predatory is a huge stretch, the puck came back down low to Pettersson, what's he supposed to do, just let him get the puck while staring at him? Pettersson needs to learn to toughen up and not be such a p***y. |
