How in the (frank) is Trouba playing in this game? He should be suspended.

For the hit on Kharia? Really unfortunate outcome but the hit looked pretty clean no?

He hit him directly in the head.

As shocked as I am, I honestly shouldn't be. Considering how once again they've proven to be insanely bad at their jobs over at DO"PS".

Looks vicious, but look how Khaira is coming into the hit from watching the puck, Trouba doesn't look like he's after a head hit - going in shoulder first. Almost jumping up, but not quite... Looks worse at normal speed, not so much at slow...
Start from 0:40

Maybe not, and I can believe that, but he still hit him directly in the head. But intentional or not, it's a clear as day headshot.

well, yeah that possibly happened because Khaira was puck watching 'Lindros style'...

Pretty close to another head shot by Trouba, this time on MacKinnon.

You're not wrong. But we can't just go around and blame the guy who got killed because he got hit in the head.

Trouba saw the entire way the position he was in and still hit him high.

If he's having his head down while owning the puck, I believe we actually can. At least when it's clearly not a vicious 'attack'.

He hit him directly in the head and Trouba had plenty of time to not do that.

That's on Trouba.

That's definitely not "plenty of time". On the ice, an attacker coming your way - you're playing D, your main task is to stop him before he's out of his D-zone. You have maybe 2 secs to make up your mind how to stop that play. You can see that you can hit him - you go in for the hit with both your skates on the ice, hitting him with your shoulder...
When I was told how to play D, that's exactly how you play.
Unfortunate result yes, but imho that's a fair hockey hit everything considered.

Does this mean Matthews isn't bolting for the desert as a UFA in 2024?

We'll just have to agree to disagree, then, because intent or not, I'll never side with a complete headshot not being suspendable.

$1.3M for an NHL team should be peanuts - if not, they have clearly mismanaged their chance to be an NHL team imo.
Houston next try??

Agreed.
Because imo that's possibly a headshot within the rules and the blame is just as much on Khaira for puckwatching.

What exactly is going on?

I hope they move to Houston for the sole reason that people will shut the (frank) up about Matthews bailing to Arizona.
