Connor Murphy Stretchered Off The Ice Following A Hit From Parker Kelly 

Every sport in the world shows concern when someone gets hurt in the game...

​@@harryclarke632 That's not true..combat sports. He also said it was one of many reasons. I bet you make a lot of comments that make you look like a dickhead.

of course you want to hurt the opponent, make it difficult for him in the game and he should feel and think all the time that you are there and that you will hurt him again. *but a player almost never intends to injure the opponent seriously.* bruises, scratches, lacerations and the like, these are the things that have always defined hockey. the fistfights are almost a kind of synonym for hockey - in no other sport is something like that tolerated. *but here, too, almost no one has the intention of seriously injuring anyone.*

well said...

What happened to him?

Totally agree . That whole arena was as quiet as people in a church

Just my 2 cents worth: If a player is sidelined missing games due to a hit, the hitter needs to be sidelined for the same number of games. Too many players have their career cut short due to hard hits.

Who said it was dirty?

@@BobbySacamano it was worthy of going to the sin bin. Kelly got screwed NO way that is a game misconduct. Not a cheap shot at all.

@@carasmussen27 he may not have meant it and yes its bad timing, but whenever a player gets hit from behind, its always a game misconduct no matter the results.

Watching this a year later, I think it's better that they took the opposing player off the ice. For his own good. there's no telling if somebody on the Blackhawks would have retaliated with a dirty hit.

You could see Parker Kelly felt absolutely terrible about the hit

Head on a swivel, Murphy needs to recognize the check coming and protect himself there. Hope he has a speedy recovery. Seeing this too often these days, players not protecting themselves.

@@xtripledee8022 I agree, there needs to be more accountability on the players taking a hit. It seems as though a lot of players turn their back in order to protect themselves but it needs to be taught from a young age to take the hit square on. When I was in minor hockey they had stop signs on the back of our jerseys but a lot of players used that to their advantage to draw a penalty and coaches were also teaching them to do this, which resulted in a lot of injuries.

@@jordanray6459 It is, or at least it was, when I was playing youth hockey. I was taught to expect a hit and protect myself anytime I retrieve or play the puck near the boards/in the corners. Not sure who started teaching players to turn their backs, it's not the right way to play the game.

@@xtripledee8022 I’m not sure where this mentality came from. I speculate coaches and players saw an opportunity with the stop signs to gain an advantage by drawing a penalty. I know from when I was playing this is what other teams were doing. My dad was my coach and he was told by an opposing coach he was telling his players to turn when they saw number 2 (me) coming towards them. That game specifically, the player that turned was the coach’s son and he was taken off the ice in a stretcher with me getting a game misconduct. I was 6’1” when I was 14 and I hit hard, when a player turns his back at the last minute I wasn’t able to adjust in time and kids got hurt. It was unfortunate and I felt bad for the kid but it was his dad that caused that imo. I’m willing to take responsibility for making a mistake but that’s a piss poor way to play hockey.

HEARTBREAKING WHAT IN THE HELL R U TALKING ABOUT

It is a senator that was signalling first for help too

It's NHL, players do care for each-other if it's serious, you don't reach NHL anymore if you have minor mentality.

What was Murphy’s injury?

@@Sonofawildanimal4241 had a concussion.

@@bordosense thanks

you would have gone to the bones like that, and a boom in sick leave for a month, and when you finish hockey, then you are just a wreck and not a person

It turned out to be a hit to the numbers against the board, admittedly there’s nothing he could have done about it, but due to the letter of the law it’s a misconduct

@@PalmAngel74 не вводи человека в заблуждение. Нормально все с парнем, в феврале вернётся в игру. Просто потерял сознание.

This is why I'm saying that he didn't protect himself. Players don't protect themselves anymore because they are trying to draw a penalty.

@@dalebrooks304 wtf? He tried to slip the check. You look like a genius if you pull it off. And sometimes you take an awkward hit

I thought that I saw you sitting there.

Oh wow its you!

By th rule book this is actually a penalty. It doesn’t matter if he turned last second, you still followed through on a potentially dangerous hit

Of course, they're now taught to turn into the boards when they see a hit coming so they can draw a boarding penalty. He's fine, clean hit play hockey

Просто не удачно, нарушение под вопросом Здоровья тебе, быстрее в строй команды!!!

For sure. Kelly has absolutely zero intention to injure this man. Just happens 🤷‍♂️

Players back off hits like that every night. He was vulnerable and the hitter could have and should have let up, it's done EVERY night in the NHL or they would be losing players long term on a daily basis

No that is not hockey

Not what you" wanted to do" . Is like Oops my gun went off and shot my wife in the head, but that's okay because it's not what I wanted to do. Or I only hit him twice with that rebar didn't mean to kill him,so it's all good

@@robbie3446 you never played at a high level or you would know better

Maybe because Kelly was put in the penalty box.

You can google

People fighting and people getting hurt are two different things. Genius.

So if it’s not intentional why would an apology be needed? Fine about the checking in on him, but an apology is 100% not relevant

@@scottsundt5288 So, according to that logic, if you unintentionally step on someone’s foot while walking you don’t apologize?

Ale zase protivník se zachoval fair ze odmítl dále hrát a šel rovnou do kabiny. Šlo vidět že to byla zkur.nahoda a mrzí ho to také.
