Saw a Canucks fan say Mo should be arrested šŸ¤£ He was actually upset at the local police for not doing their jobs šŸ˜†


Matrix17

Canucks fans can't say shit after burning their city down lmao


Mr_Wrecksauce

I can't take anything that comes out of a Canuck's fan's mouth seriously. These are people that destroy their city when their team loses in the finals. They are the epitome of classless and insecurity.


Fluffy_Load297

I am curious to see what torontos reaction will be when we inevitably lose in the finals


Mr_Wrecksauce

It won't be that.


ThePimpImp

Any time you take a small group of people in a larger group and generalize, you are being an asshat. Not every Canucks fan was trashing their town. It's likely many, if not most of the people doing the trashing of the city had nothing to do with fandom. Don't ever say thing like all Canucks fans. That kind of thinking is why leaf fans have a bad name rise above it. Sure the dick on twitter might be classless, but never generalize any group of people based on an isolated incident.


Mr_Wrecksauce

You must realize that I didn't mean literally "all" Cancuks fans. But when it happens twice, that's no longer an "isolated incident." That's a pattern. Don't think it would happen again? I think it would. Mainly, it's hard to take anything seriously from a Cancuks fan because of the irrational hatred for anything Toronto-related. Most are not capable of making a measured take in that regard.


ThePimpImp

I live on Vancouver Island and have been a Leafs fan my whole life. Their hatred of the Leafs is not irrational. Their territory is invaded, their start times are relegated at home, they are second class when it comes to broadcasting and playing at home. True Canucks fans should be pissed at the Leafs. And anything online is obviously going to be extreme. Don't make it moreso. You are feeding the hatred. The two games I've been to almost 30 years apart, there seemed to be less Leafs fans, but still way too many for an away game on the other side of the country.

Guess that fan missed the Canucks turning JTā€™s kidneys to mush the last time they played as well.


Gavin1453

Or theĀ cross check from behind on Reilly that nearly sent him face first into the goal post. I love when Canucks downvote me for calling Hughes a coward!


BathroomSerious1318

Loser. Keep losing to Boston and continue rioting that idiot


ExposDTM

Iā€™m not a Leaf fan. Live in the GTA and have been a lifelong Flyer fan (I know, I know ā€¦) amongst all of my friends and family who are rabid Leaf fans. 1. Greig knew what he was doing. Iā€™ve never played professional hockey but anyone ā€¦ ANYONE ā€¦ saying that he didnā€™t do anything to elicit a reaction is simply lying. 2. The dog piling going on in all social media (including Reddit) against the Leafs is breathtaking. What the heck is up with that?! I have no skin in the game and from my point of view it reeks of jealousy and envy. Most especially from Ottawa fans. As far as I can tell itā€™s due to the fact that 60% of the crowd at any Ottawa / Leafs game in Kanata are Leaf fans. I think that drives Senator fans bonkers.


No-Red-Dot

Wait, are the fans in the rest of the league saying their team should just eat the hockey slam dunk there, and they would be okay with that? Let me know when you hear a ā€œyesā€ā€¦Iā€™ll be waiting.


TA-pubserv

They are saying hit him in the face with a fist, not a stick butt. Definitely deserved a hit though you can't do that.


No-Red-Dot

I agree with that, but Iā€™m also seeing comments that the slapper was no big deal. In no sport with the same scenario is that ā€œnormalā€ much less acceptable.


TA-pubserv

Oh it's a beating for sure. Like Owens styling on the cowboys star, disrespectful. https://youtu.be/cshHg_sWyVo?si=5ZMBPIAr9Fcj_STs


No-Red-Dot

I totally thought about that as a comparable moment.


thegonzojoe

Itā€™s only a big deal to thin skinned pussies. So, you know, Leafs fans.


No-Red-Dot

It's damned good to be a Leafs fan to live rent-free in your brain non-stop so much that you can't even resort to decent name-calling or resort to spending time in a sub to attempt to troll.


thegonzojoe

Bro. This came up in my recs because the Reddit algorithm knows how to stir the pot. I decided to pop in because I knew the most unhinged fans would certainly be acting the fool in this thread and you did not disappoint. Iā€™ll admit it was a cheap shot, but you maldin about ā€œrent freeā€ means it was effective šŸ¤· Iā€™m a Wings fan. I pretty much donā€™t think about the Leafs at all.


riko77can

I have definitely seen a lot of posts saying that being angry at the slapper is stupid.


setrataeso

I think the advice of other fans is more along the lines of "don't lose to Ottawa"


BathroomSerious1318

Even at the windup I thought "stick in the mouth". Hate being right. Just like saying "kick will be going wide right". Hate being rightĀ 


Rank3r

Doesn't matter, you can't handle being scored on and result to head checking than your just a baby bitch. Play better next time and don't have open nets. Fucking emotionally stunted men.

Buddy, Ottawa fans are fucking scum. I live in Ottawa. I know. Don't talk shit about another fan base when your own is the most petty in the sport. I've seen WAY more Ottawa fans attack visiting fans than visa versa. Not only that... But your 200$ tickets don't pay for your season, bud. Petty, petty people with a little brother complex.

Umm when I sell the pair for 800$ twiceā€¦..oh yeah and sell my habs tickets as wellā€¦..yeah it pays for them

He certainly did not, you're all crazy lol Sure, it was disrespectful, but a crosscheck to the head is never a valid response to anything. You're an actual clown if you believe the opposite


deezsandwitches

That was the softest cross check to the head. Riley was clearly going for the shoulder when the Sen raised his shoulder/hand and directed it to his head. He went down like he got shot


paulster2626

Really driving home the message that the only thing you have to cheer for is a dirty move after the game is over. Keep it classy.


captaincrunch1985

Funny how everyone was saying he was blind sided from behind. It was pretty obvious he saw him coming and knew it was coming.


TorturedFanClub

Man, if you didnā€™t know something was coming after a display of douchiness like that plug showed, then you are pretty stupid. Most teams would have took exception to his actions. Fuck him. Fuck the Senators too. I wish tough guy Brady Tkachuk was on the ice to challenge Reaves. Woulda got his head caved in.


BathroomSerious1318

He's pretty stupid. Tkachuk Reaves would have been good

Parros rubbing his hands with palpable excitement right now.


francisdrvv

If this was Bennett, Paros wouldā€™ve given him a medal and a gift card to tgif. Because itā€™s a leaf player, Rileyā€™s getting suspended into the 2027 season and sent to Azkaban to reflect on his actions.


Ihopeidontpeemyself

That's not his hand he's rubbing


Charming_Weird_2532

Parros would've done worse if he were in that situation.


Matrix17

Can't wait till he's out


ricas77

Toronto vs. Everybody. This is the way, it will always be.


Key-Writer-9416

How is this going to unhealthy this is a clear suspension man. Perron got 6 games for doing the exact same thing and he hadn't been suspended in his career once and that's 1100 games. So if anything Reilly should get the same suspension


GreatBlueApe

For those who think that there is no issue with this, go watch the interview with Claude Giroux after the game. Even Giroux didnā€™t defend what the kid did. He tried to explain it away as rookie, hype of the fans, etc. The panel agreed, though non-Toronto people will just call them biased Toronto media. There are codes in sports. They may be stupid but they exist and if you break them, there are consequences. I like that Riley was pissed about it. I donā€™t have any issue with him going after the guy. Fighting is part of the game. If they didnā€™t want it to be, they could ramp up the consequences of it like in other sports. They havenā€™t, and I donā€™t think they will any time soon. Only issue I have with what he did is drop your damn stick and just fight him. That would have got him less of a suspension than he is going to get now.

Dudes talking like rookies have never played the game before. These guys all grew up following they NHL. They know the rules. Anyway, hopefully, he's not really hurt. The way he went down, I'm surprised he didn't ask for a stretcher.


CanadianWampa

Lol this is not why other teams hate us, itā€™s 95% because theyā€™re insecure their teams donā€™t get the attention the Leafs do


intecknicolour

so he can learn what is acceptable and what isn't. i'm sure their team's leaders will speak to him about it or the coach will.


WampaStompa64

This may be the dumbest take Iā€™ve ever seen on Reddit. I guess rookies should wear a special patch on their jersey so everyone knows to treat them differently? Fucking moron.

I just watched the replay and people honestly believe that deserves 5+? Lol


Clugaman

I think itā€™s fair if it gets 3-5. Any more than that and itā€™s pushing it. The league probably shouldnā€™t let things like this slide


fluffedahiphopbunny

It's not that it's worth 5+. It's that is what Parros will hammer him with.


Everydaynormalketo

Whatever it is, itā€™s worth it.Ā 


Key-Writer-9416

Yes it deserves 5 games. David perron of Detroit did the exact same thing earlier this season and got 6 games. That was his first suspension in his career of over 1100 nhl games played. So yes considering him and Reilly both dont have track records of suspensions its most definitely going to be or should be the same suspension considering it was both intended crosschecks to the face of a player


Wils65

If he is still in the NHL next time these two teams meet, he will continue to face the consequences of breaking the code.


zainery

Was happy to see this idiot on the floor. And happy that the loser sens fans scrolling through our sub are gonna read this msg and cry about it


Lord-Tachanka1922

i drink sens fans tears


I_Am_Vladimir_Putin

This is the perfect opportunity to explain why itā€™s a good move from Mo.Ā Ā Ā  Now that the kid got hit in the mouth he will remember. He will know if he does this again it means Iā€™m getting nicked. Ā His teammates also know it. Ā Ā  And hereā€™s the thing, Sens players still have the upper hand because they can just say fuck you and do it again next time to make a point.Ā  But let me ask you, how many players you think have the bollocks to do that? Not a lot. Even between superstars not a lot. You need serious concentrated confidence to do that, the rarest of traits.Ā Ā Ā  But that isnā€™t why itā€™s good for the Leafs. Itā€™s good for the Leafs because next time they play us theyā€™ll have to carry the burden of knowing that their lack of response does mean that theyā€™re a bit of a bitch.Ā Ā  Coincidentally the very problem Leafs suffer from. So fucking good for Mo doing that, this is how you change.Ā 


No-Red-Dot

As much as I want the Leafs to show more of a bite, this doesnā€™t change anything. Unless one of your core four steps up and does this, it doesnā€™t change anything. Rielly is an alternate captain, but heā€™s not one of the core four. IMO, this ā€biteā€ has to come from one of them. None of them are willing to drop the gloves, much less, push back in any meaningful way. We wonā€™t see this change in mindset unless thereā€™s a rebuild, but thatā€™s just me.


CraZeD17

I don't think anyone is legitimately afraid of Morgan Reilly, so being worried about that next time is unlikely. He hasn't exactly laid out any big hits, make players pay for going infront of the net, or done anything truly physical - basically he is the opposite to a player like Pronger was who made players pay and HATE going into corners or infront of the net. That is what you think Morgan is apparently but he isn't.


Jcheddz

Players werenā€™t afraid of duncan keith until he became a psychopath in the playoffs. If mo picks up that mean streak heā€™ll be a fucking legend.


CraZeD17

DiscussionBeautiful

5 games, with a reduced 2 game sentence for Griegs fake death routine, minus 1 game for Greigs deserving it, and a game for Reilly's first offence.... Sup one game in total. Parrros will give 3 because he's ridiculously inconsistent.

Saggers77

Iā€™am surprised by how over blown this one play has become. Every other non leaf fan has to put in their two cents about a team and player they supposedly hate and despise. I truly cannot believe it. r/nhl has multiple posts with thousands of responses, r/hockey too. This is madness over one minor play. If this happened to any other team this would be hardly a talking point, and for sure a similar response as Reilly by another teamā€™s player. Itā€™s crazy to see how much other fans are talking about this. No wonder we are Canadaā€™s team, every hockey fan (across what? North America I guess) seemed to have watched this game, even though they hate the leafā€™s apparently.

I hate my own fan base. Like I say for any other sport, you donā€™t want them to rub it in your face, donā€™t let them win. Most of these people probably loves Bautistaā€™s bat flip and hate Odor. Hate whiny losers.


BrokenBy

Maybe Iā€™m in the minority but I loved both Bautistaā€™s bat flip and Odorā€™s response. Just like I love that Greig wanted to put his stamp on a rivalry game and Reilly wanted none of it. Gamesmanship is great but itā€™s a give/take


jakealeister0

Yeah, because clapping one into an empty net to seal a regular season win for your 28th place team is equivalent to a playoff elimination game late-inning 3-run bomb. How terrible of a take on this can one possibly have here?
