Man that hit was brutal, hope he is all right.

Me too. I don’t think we’ll be seeing Scheiffle for a while.  

[SWSiouxMN]

Saw the hit, agree fully.  I doubt he plays again in this series. 

Very disappointed as a Jets fan.  Would have been the last player to suspect of doing that.

It might depend on how they view the finish.  He was racing back to try prevent a goal, so if they think he couldn’t avoid contact he might get a little benefit of the doubt because he has a solid reputation. The finish is what might get him in big trouble. I only saw it a couple times, so I didn’t get a great feel if he should get some slack or not.  I think to be safe, the league will probably error on the side of about 5 games because I don’t see Evans playing again in this series, unless most of the paramedics attention was precautionary.

the media heads mentioned hand movements and a thumbs up from evans, so hopefully it was all precaution.  Scheiffle had a chip on his shoulder all game, wonder if that plays into any additional league decisions.

Jost with a nice PP goal, was it ever decided   Yoe -st, or Joe -st?

I missed most of the game, so yeah, if they feel he had an axe to grind it clouds the benefit of the doubt angle a bit.

I agree with the commentators that Scheiffle not making a play on the puck will make it pretty tough not to suspend him.

And I agree. He had no intention of trying to prevent a goal

VGK 75 got 2 games for his nonsense the other night.

WPG 55 made no attempt to play the puck and made a full speed contact to the head collision (on a live national game in two countries) in a league that is trying to protect the head.

 

I'm setting the over/under of the suspension of WPG 55 at 4.5 games. (I think he'll get 4 so I'm on the under.)

Who knows what the league will do. With that said I’m going under just for the fact that Scheifele has never been suspended before. I’ll say 3 games but knowing the NHL it could be just a fine to done for the remainder of the playoffs

Maurice says it was a "heavy, heavy" hit by Scheifele on Evans after he scored an empty-net goal in the final minute of the opener of the teams’ playoff series on Wednesday.

But Maurice argues it wasn’t dirty, saying Scheifele’s feet were on the ice and his arms were tucked in.

 

Check this out.

That will basically be the remainder of the Jets playoff run.  

Won't argue the suspension length.

Blind squirrel alert!

Beautiful game-winning goal.

And there ought to be a meme.

Easily one of the best clutch players in recent memory.  Seems like he's always on the ice - if not in the mix - for the game winners in OT.

[Goon]

This is unacceptable.

“Another point I want to make is I can accept the punishment, I can accept the accountability – that’s what you sign up for being in the NHL – but the hate that my family has gotten, the bullying that they’ve gotten is completely unacceptable,” an emotional Scheifele said. “Online, phone calls, it’s pretty gross to see. My parents are the salt of the earth and for my parents to get hate like that, and my brother and sister, it’s awful. I can handle it. I’m a grown man and I’ve accepted that I can be held accountable for that but for my family to get that it hurts me a lot.”

No denying he’s clutch but I still don’t like him although I’d take him on my team in a heartbeat

Winnipeg sure is making Montreal look good tonight. Getting outplayed every shift even every play it seems.

Price is on

Jets are getting swept
