Jets were not the better team last night. I think they will play hard but the loss of two key players is going to hit them hard. I think Laine hurts his hand when it goes into the boards after he accidentally ran into Gio. I am sure Lainenis more worries about whether this will affect his fortnite stats than the hockey.
That being said Maurice doesn’t go off easily but unless they release that video feed and it shows something blatant, that was hockey and it sucked but it is a dangerous sport. Scheifele doesn’t explode a knee from a kick?

Quoted for out of thanks. This is the best take on both plays I have seen. I know 90% of the uproar is about selling a story for the media and Maurice deflecting from his team's play and creating an enemy but it has gotten very Edmonton-ish. Sad to see that. Hope Scheifele ends up ok. Everyone playing their role here and at least Tkachuk knows the ropes and won't back down.
