What do you think of Kyle McLaren's hit on Richard Zednik? - GoFuckYourself.com

I can't understand how some professional hockey player can make a vicious hit like that on another player!!!
It's totally inacceptable in my opinion......fuck.....he could have killed Richard Zednik!!

What do you think?

There is no place for shitty sportsmanship like that in any sport. That could be a carrier ender.

How bout those fucking BLUES!!!

Blues gonna get knocked out by Wings in second round

McLaren better be out for the rest of the playoffs and the beginning of last season, just like Domi. Some people say Domi's was worse because the Niedermayer didn't have the puck, it was supposedly after the whistle (I don't even remember), but Domi didn't break Niedermayer's nose and jaw and give him a serious concussion.

You get sentenced for murder even if you weren't trying to kill them.

Didn't see this one except for the news mentioning it.

You guys obviously never saw hockey in the 60s and 70s. lmao NO protection or helmets and both teams getting into a huddle beating each other in the head with sticks and fists...

Go down and a skate plate would kick them. More like fighting tyson x 40 with weapons.

But if he took an unfair shot at this other player then the guy will get sanctioned or something. Back then half the teams were always be in the box. My brother watched it all the time so I saw. Haven't seen bloody ice in 25 or more years. lol

he had zednik lined up and at the last second zednik moved and mclaren got his elbow up. happens but when u miss a good shot like that u gotta be careful about those reactions. if he woulda moved his hips to the right mclaren woulda broke him in two legally.

i think mclaren should be suspended for 5 games. it wasn't an attempt to injure but u gotta keep yourself under control.

woodyxxx · 04-26-2002, 07:51 AM

For what I saw, McLaren did it intentionnally.....fuck man you don't move up your elbow with such force whitout wanting to hurt! He even had a satisfied face right after he had hit Zednik.....and what was he doing on the powerplay with a 5-2 score?He was on a mission to go after one of the best players of the Canadiens and get him out of the playoffs.....that's my opinion

Actually, Domi's hit DID cause a bad concussion, and Niedermayer missed a bunch of playoff games, and was basically ineffective for the rest of the playoffs. That hit fucked him up.

I think McLaren deserves what Domi got. They set the precedent, now lets see if his squeaky clean record cuts back the punishment. But he should be out for the playoffs, at least.

that stuff can happen. he was gonna miss him cuss zednik turned in and he was going out. thats like sometimes a player will stick his leg out and accidentally knee someone cuss they're gonna miss him. but he's still responsible. players don't go out there to kill people, he was tryin to hip check him and he missed. hockey is a rough sport and sometimes these things happen. from what i know of mclaren he's not a dirty player.

and mclaren does play on the power play....

I've met Kyle on a number of occasions and hes a big kid. The hit in my opinion was borderline clean. I have played hockey for 5 years and know that if you come in over the blue line with your head down and the puck you are all done. Zednik should have known better than to be skating with his head down.

Kyle as i said is a big kid, taller than zednik. Kyle was standing up right and zedniks head was down, of course kyles shoulder and upper arm which is what from what i saw, hit zednik is going to be head height.

The fact that aplayer got hurt from a check does not automatically mean someone should get a suspension. it should come down to if there was definate intent to injure. In my opinion there was not intent to injure, Kyles not a dirty player but yes hes a hard hitter.

As for him having a satisfied look on his face... hell yea when i hit someone a ton i looked satisfied too. He wasnt satisfied that the guy was hurt he was stocked about the hit. It was a solid clean hit! Too many of you guys just see someone got hurt and just all over the kid saying he musta been out for blood.

Hes gonna get a game suspension or maybe two if anything and thats just sot he league can save face and possible so boston can get out of this series winning and without retaliation against kyle.

Its a lesson to keep your head up when playing the game of hockey. Thats all... hopefully zednik finds all his teeth at some point

Also with him having his head down and making forward progress Kyle COULD have hit him/hurt him a ton more if he was out for blood. As far as kyle having his arm extended... thats so the guy cant get around him, as a defensemen you are the last line of defense before the goaltender, if he lets zednik duck the check hes out of position and zedniks prolly gonna have the hattrick.

Watch the reply kyles arm is extended he hits him with his shoulder/tricept (upper area of elbow pad / lower area of shoulder pads) = broken jaw and nose Zedniks head hits the ice, teeth/molars clank together = severe concusion. You dont see Kyle wind up and swing his elbow into the guys face, if that were the case there would have been a ton more rearranging of zedniks face that would have occurred.

Just my .02

Anyhow im sure we can all agree saturdays game will be interesting. They called like a 6'2" 280 punder to replace zednik and im sure its not for his scoring prowess.

FlyingIguana · 04-26-2002, 03:48 PM

that wasn't a solid clean hit. u can see his elbow smash directly into zednik's head. he missed him and put up his arm. it wasn't intentional but u need to be responsible for ur limbs. i say 5 games he should be out for. mclaren actually missed and thats why his arm went out, pure split second reaction.

shoulder is fine, but elbows aren't.
