Should this have been a penalty? 🧐

Not if you are an NHL official and it's against the Sharks

@trey_cobain Yes. WTH are we talking about here?

Forearm and stick handle to the head, then stick in the skates ... both penalties.

Replay from front side view it’s a clear hit to the head. Yes for sure.

A penalty for what? It’s an unfortunate collision and an awkward landing, Matheson didn’t do anything wrong.

Thats a slew foot with his fucking stick. How is this not a penalty??

Hit to head and trip…. Yes and yes

Nah most of us learned hockey on the pond not through a porno show

It’s tripping. Watch it in slow motion. Hope he’ll be okay.

He literally got knocked out

Why would Chernyshov get a penalty for that?

Especially today's NHL that's a major penalty. @CanadiensMTL #GoHabsGo tweeting out thoughts and well wishes makes it sound like it's REALLY bad. Was it dirty no, was it tripping for sure. Hope he is ok

It looks he lost his balance because he was swept off his feet by number 8

@trey_cobain 2 for tripping is all. Accidental stick in the skate that made Cherny flip and land on his face

How is that not a penalty…

of course that should be a penalty

no shit it should’ve been a penalty

Clearly. But we know the officials have a don't call it if it benefits the Sharks. Been that way all season long.

Nah. You should stop engagement farming

Being that it is a blatant trip. Stick in the skate. I would say so.

Could’ve gotten 2 minutes for interference or tripping sure. But it’s just an unfortunate play the end of the day. Only thing that matters is that Chernyshov is okay

Maybe 2 for a trip or hold, but the fall knocked him out, contact was nothing.

No .. But SJ doesn’t know puck anyway

There are a lot of things it might be. Holding. Tripping. Elbowing. All available penalities on this play.

for what

Literally slew foots him and no call….

He uses his leg as leverage to slewfoot the player.

C’est du chiqué @Raphaelrqt

yes. stick in the skate and arm wrapped around neck corkscrewed Chernyshov into the ice.

The view from behind is a clear as day hit to the head at least worth a penalty.

Nothing dirty about it, but certainly could have been called holding or tripping

For what
