Mike375 0 Report post Posted January 4, 2009 Watched this game earlier, definately deserved. Giroux was entering the Ducks zone, just across the blue line. Perry approached from right side/slightly behind and caught him square in the face with an elbow. Hard to argue it was incidental, very blatant. 4 Games well justified.

Mike375 0 Report post Posted January 4, 2009 Quick Note: The Penalty call was 4 Min Double Minor for High Sticking (drawing blood). Refs blew the call (surprise) and thought it was his stick, although if you were looking in the general direction of the ice you could see the elbow. Would have mostly likely been a Game Misconduct/Major if the refs saw it clearly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The main difference between the two in my eyes is intent. Ovechkin's hit almost certainly wasn't thrown with intent to injure, it would take a lot to convince me that wasn't Perry's objective. While intent doesn't (and shouldn't) affect penalties, I believe it *should* affect suspensions. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SoDakWing 8 Report post Posted January 4, 2009 elbow nothing else, ovechkin had no intent, the elbow was still there so what your saying is all players to throw an elbow intentional or not should be suspended? Ovie's hit was a complete accident. you can watch it again and before he hits Heward he starts to let up cuz he realizes at the last second he has no idea it's coming, and he also manages to hit the side of him (granted it was his head side) but he didn't flatten him square in the numbers. Perry is a goon just like his loser teamate pronger, that hit was intentional plain and simple. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mike375 0 Report post Posted January 4, 2009 Agreed, an elbow was involved. However, Ovechkin was in no way trying to hurt him. Its arguable if the elbow even had any affect on the injury, or it was contact with the ice/boards. That play happens 5x a game, hell, in the Wild game today Z got his elbows up. No injury, no intent to injure, no call. In the Perry incident, he was blatantly headhunting. He was obviously going for the head. To me it looks like AO was putting his forearms on his back/shoulder and they slid up. Players out to injure or being overly wreckless continuously should be punished more severely than those who have a mental lapse. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Comparing it with this complete cheapshot is out of line and adds nothing to the thread. Perry was headhunting and deserves the suspension. It's unfortunate what Pronger is teaching the kids in Anaheim. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Donaldjr2448 43 Report post Posted January 4, 2009 I was watching that game lastnight when fairy hit him, I thought to myself, will the league suspend him? I'm glad they did, and didn't wait on it! I think since it was a 4 minute penalty that is what made the difference, if that is the case, way to go on the refs part. Corey Fairy is a complete D-BAG, I think we can all agree on that!! That game lastnight between Philly and the Ducks was extremly physical!! Lots of hitting and fighting, all the hits were good, and the fights were good with the exception of Fairy screwing it up!

CopenhagenWing 38 Report post Posted January 4, 2009 elbow nothing else, ovechkin had no intent, the elbow was still there Kind of hard for it not to be. Elbowing gets called when players get them up and/or out. Ovechkin's could hardly have held his closer to his side if he'd glued it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
