Freak accident in hockey

[Huggles]

Anyone seen that accidental freak accident in hockey in the UK?

As someone who used to play ice hockey, I watched it and felt horrible. What a tragic accident!

A player was accidentally going for the puck and accidentally got tripped and his leg accidentally came up and freakly super accidentally caught another player by accident on the neck!

Damn... I hope people rally around the player who's leg hit the other man in the throat, because he is probably very upset about how much of an accident it was! Good thing all of the media and Reddit are all in agreement that this was an accidentally freak accident by accident!

p.s. Don't accidentally watch the accident video. It is horrible!

Oh, damn. I didn't know about this one, but there is similar accident many years ago, goalkeeper had same situation, but he survived somehow.

RIP!

I am glad that le good Redditors are coming up with text walls that clearly explain that this was an accident, seems like the racists and bigots have been insinuating that this was a purposeful murder. What a disgrace! You'd have to be 12 years old to think that someone in hockey would do this, it isn't like they had a reputation for being a goon or anything. Sheesh.

That was tragic.

Few people can UNSEE that video.

Traumatizing indeed

Excuse me, are you a physicist?

Please use your critical thinking skills. The you-know-what is safe and effective. Climate change is real. The world is not flat. Birds are not CIA spy robots. You've been listening to too much Facebook and Russian bot farms if you think this is anything but a tragic accident.

It would seem that the accidental-kick player collided with the person in front of him, and you can see that it knocked his body weight onto his back foot, causing the front foot to come up and accidentally hit Johnson on his neck. Clearly you don't understand physics and a game that happens at such fast speeds. There is this thing called "momentum" for the uneducated science-deniers. I spoke with my local University and their professor of experimental particle physics in the laboratory, and xir came to the same conclusion as I did using science and mathematics to calculate the effects of time, space and gravity to go frame-by-frame and calculate that this was a huge accident and that the accident player had absolutely zero fault here, that this was unavoidable and just a freak accident as proven by science. While he had his eyes on Johnson for a couple of seconds before the collision, the actual physics and kinetics behind the accident was just a freak of mathematical coincidence that the player's skate caught Johnson on the neck.

Please, let's show our support to Petgrave. Imagine waking up as him, distraught and upset about the freak accident, just to have people sending him nasty messages with more than a hint of racism. Personally, I'm going to petition for Petgrave to be allowed in the NHL where he can truly shine and move beyond this absolutely freak accident to have the best career possible and be a role model to others, to show that we can move beyond accidents and that we honour people that rise above false malignment. Hope Petgrave can find the strength to overcome the haters and get back on the ice where he belongs.

Not a freak accident. I have zero sympathy for anybody who thinks that was an accident. I imagine if I did that to you you wouldn't think it was an accident. Some people just don't have impulse control.

I think it's hard to say, but definitely worth investigating. Either way, such a sad & unexpected loss of life. Condolences to him and the family, friends.

Another uneducated person.

Are you a physicist? Are you a hockey expert?

Let me guess... VikingMan did his own research!

The team already called it a freak accident. Don't fall for the Russian bot farms and misinformation.

MY opinion is based on what I see on the video. I don't believe it was intentional killing, but investigation should be done anyways, hopefully to learn how exactly it happened and somehow prevent in future.

Truely youve never been on the ice before. I have 35 years playing and reffing and no matter skill level there are things you cant control.

The people who think this is a pure accident are the same people who got five boosters and were wearing three masks during the pandemic.

But the media and the player's team clearly said it was an accident less than 24 hours after it happened.

Case closed.

[VikingMan]

Nah, you only got 5 shots. But you cannot explain why you won't get the sixth shot. Even the most zealous Karen's are refusing the sixth shot despite it being
highly recommended by the same people who shamed people for not getting the first 5. Why is that exactly?

Just so everybody knows and wants to make sense of my reply Karen up above quickly edited her reply to my post. She was taunting me saying that I believe in flat Earth and things like that and saying she got 14 shots. I also have no clue as to the gender of this person however the overly emotional unhinged way this person talks makes me assume I am conversing with a middle-aged single issue voting suburban woman.

I am GFY's #1 most insane troll, honestly I never took any of the shots which is why I am back in the adult business making less than 1k a month!

It is interesting to see how people seem divided into the same camps as before... the people who advocate that this was an accident are the same normies as before, while people who are questioning it seem to fall into the "other" camp... the divide on Reddit is astounding with /r/nhl and other mainstream subreddits locking posts and deleting comments while on 4Chan the consensus is manslaughter.

Oh great, now Killswitch is going to report my trolling to the mods and I'm going to get banned again!

I couldn't resist!!!

Imagine being such a fucking small dick, small brain, uneducated PUTIN BOT loser that you'd actually question a freak accident.

It was an accident, you racist, nazi fucking losers.

The only people who would question this would be uneducated fucking losers with small dicks, basically enemies of democracy. Qanon, flat Earth retards.

[jscott]

Dude Huggles why you so mad man? Everyone gonna have opinions on shit like this, some will be wild ones. But fact is, dude died, must be investigation and I dont even mean like, criminally, but people will want to know exactly how this happened and how to prevent in future. Tragedies always need investigated. And dont let others opinions get you so triggered, calm down dude! Here, have a hug!

Anyone who thinks the hockey accident was anything but an accident is a Putin-bot anti-vaxxer.

Are you a physicist? If not, why would you have any opinion on whether or not the collision was an accident? The team and the league came out and called if a "freak accident", if you think otherwise you are clearly a fucking retard, an anti-science bag of dicks and an absolute Putin-bot. "Do your own research" LOL fucking loser.

Gretzky commented on it...

Read the comments on Reddit... the mental gymnastics people are doing are mind-blowing. One of the highest upvoted comments is someone calling people who are skeptical about the "freak accident" are "terminally online schizos" and people are calling Gretzky a drunk and saying he should fuck off. Incredible!

Yes... Gretzky knows fuck all about hockey... lol

Here is the same player throwing a leg out in a previous game:

The amount of people coming up with fantastic theories of how it was a total freak accident on Reddit... the bot army is strong!

[Huggles]

I find this case uniquely interesting because there is more evidence that this player meant to injure the other player than there is that Derek Chauvin meant to harm George Floyd.

Well Floyd didn't die from Chauvin's knee, so now it's hard to compare the two.

It has been a few days, I thought for sure there would've been more videos of similar crashes where a leg has swung out and hit someone. Really none quite like this very hard hit that accidentally happened with the skate-to-face happening with such force.
