I'm talking about last playoffs, the playoff ending injury on Scheifele. Scheifele did turn into that check in a way that caused greater injury, but it was clearly a hit of malicious intent as you can watch how far he came to make it.

Do you have a clip of this? Genuinely curious what you are referring to since I have no idea

Malicious intent? In what way? If the intent to bodycheck the puck carrier is considered malicious, sure. But last time I checked that is a standard part of the game, especially in the playoffs. If you are referring to some ulterior motive keep it written down next to your tinfoil hat and dont bring it here.

Watch how long Tk is locked on to Mark here. Then how he speeds up near the end. This is more than just a simple hit - Mark isn't his check, he accelerated faster towards Mark as he got closer.
Again, this is a response to whoever said that Tk hasn't done anything as gutless as Muzzin. I rank this above what Muzzin did tonight. If you are going to make dirty plays, you better expect players to give it back.

Although I don't think his intent here was to injure, he definitely was intent on hitting Scheifele as hard as he could, going out of his way to do so.

Ok first of all, what does this clip have to do with Tavares?

Who cares how hard he tried to hit Scheifele, go watch Bennett run people over in the same series if you want to complain, or like Zadorov for that matter. People literally go out of their way to hit all the time in the playoffs, watch St. Louis' cup run for examples. That hit was clean and the only reason there is an issue with it is because of how awkwardly Scheifele received the hit. What Muzzin did is bad manor and completely uncalled for

I left the clip. No need to get your back up; this is just my personal opinion on the matter. I don't expect to convince you of the play. Bias is talking if you don't think Matt Tk is gaining ground as one of the league's biggest pests. When you assume a role like that, he needs to be able to handle people poking him back.

As to the 2nd part - I'm not here to cause arguments and poke unnecessary remarks at other people on a website. I'll back out here since I have no intent to have bad blood with anyone.

When did I ever mention Tavares?

As I said, I don't expect to convince you of what I think. I don't understand why Flames fans are so convinced that Matt isn't a dirty player, then are so offended when anyone else does anything remotely "dirty" towards him. He is notorious for doing crap, why is he (and the fanbase) unable to take it back?

to maintain peace, this is my last comment on the matter.

I don't, but I'm sure one could probably be found. Remember like right at the last face-off of the game, like half a second left? The puck drop and horn blow are pretty much simultaneous. Tkachuk comes in as the horn is blowing and gives Tavares a little (and I do mean little, I'm not trying to make it out like he attacked him) dig, just enough to draw a reaction. I just don't really see the huge difference between that and a little puck flip.

I found what you are talking about Here and that is more of a typical post game scrum. Even there Tavares reacted, so there shouldn't be any issue with Tkachuk responding to Muzzin. As for the difference between the 2 events, its pretty clear to me but idk what to tell you if you can't see it.

Tkachuk is dirty

My favourite part of my life is when he fell over and Muzzin shot the puck at him

Oh yeah, this is perfectly fine, but Tkachuk falling into Campbell was terrible and intentional. That was a completely idiotic thing to do. The game was already over. Take your 2 wins and walk away. He must be so glad that there’s a month in between games and that he might not have to deal with the consequences for his actions, or he might be in a tonne of pain after the next game.

People need to stop with the double standard. I swear, no matter what Tkachuk does, everyone tries to blame him for everything. Tkachuk has never done anything remotely as gutless as what Muzzin just did. But when Muzzin does something terrible it’s funny.

Well I’m sorry to hear how sad you life is.

I don't have a horse in this race. What Muzzin did was a bit of a dink move. But when you play like Tkachuk plays you're not going to draw any sympathy and people are going to let stuff slide more. Look at Brad Marchand, anytime anyone cheap shots Marchy the league is pretty much "that's what you get" Tkachuk is that kind of player.
However, the fact that he's got Muzzin willing to do something like that tells me that he's in Muzzin's head already and Muzzin is going to go all Doughty on him this year and Calgary is going to benefit from it.

And let’s be honest if Tkachuk was the one who flipped the puck at Muzzin leafs fans would be going bananas

How can I post pictures on here?? It never works

Think it's the other way around. Muzzin's now in Tkachuks head. Next time they play Tkachuk is going to spend a good amount of time trying to get revenge.
