Gudbranson was turned going around the boards hit him shoulder first, Gudbranson should know better as a veteran dman, cousins played him perfectly and dude got over heated after flopping to the ice
That's boarding. And you get your face punched for it. This is why there's fighting in hockey. Players need a reason to not be dirty, and getting your eye's shut is the reason. Penalties aren't enough. The homer announcers have to stick up for the Panthers but this is clean cut boarding. Gubrandson will take the susupension with a smile
The hit was clean, Gudbranson looked at Cousins before the hit was made, and it wasn't a hit from behind he made contact shoulder to shoulder. He was bleeding cause, his nose hit the spot between the glass and the boards. It was a clean hit that Gubranson made into something he will be suspended for.
Was at this game. Was 15 rows from where the boarding and then the following fight happened. In that split second, these announcers expect him to turn his shoulder? Insane. From my position, it was a clear boarding. Dumb commentators for sure. So tired of Bally.
He didn't only hit him from behind, he laid into him. It's the clearest example of a boarding call/ hit from behind you'll ever see. "bUt It LoOkED ClEaN tO mE"

@@KevinBrevinhe looked to see where his partners are. And it’s not : boarding or not boarding situation. When you’re going for a Hit you have to be in control. And Cousins is not in control. Kolesar got a 5 min major in the playoffs last year on Ekholm for Less. The ref got it wrong. Doumba on Pavelski : he was in control of his Hit.
Gudbanson turned around like a dummy when he knew he was getting hammered. Gotta protect yourself out there ffs. Cousins puts up points and can hammer guys but he's not a fighter obviously. Needs his hands to play hockey, unlike the cry baby Gudbanson.
Gudbranson is the loser and dumbass in this story: 1. Bruised hands from punching a helmet 2. Bleedy nose 3. Probably a fine or suspension 4. Lost respect around the league for faking an injury to draw a major
Typical refs not doing their job. Cousens should have been ejected for that nasty cheap hit from behind. The refs wouldn't police the game so Gudbranson had to, now he will get suspended for doing the right thing.
I just can't get over Cousins doing the turtle. It's just insane to me. You throw a hit like that, then COWER into a turtle. That's one of (Tkachuk-Kassian as well) the most embarrassing and shameful things I've ever seen in hockey. I hope opposing teams remind Cousins every game. I know I would.
The commentators say it was a clean hit ha ha. Big joke. If he had stayed down on the ice, it would have been 5 min and game. Now he stood up and they ref gave him two minutes. Not a chance it's two minutes. Ref should be suspended for that poor call.
1:13 "Just you wait... Just you wait you F*** " LOL @ the forshadowing. That was a dirty hit and I don't really feel bad for cousins getting his karma served.
Dirty hit by cousins, he deserved even worse than what he got… “looked clean to me…” Announcer needs to count his chromosomes, seems he’s got an extra one.
These announcers are part of the problem as they have no idea what they are talking about. Cousins could have paralyzed Gudbranson (or worse). The refs reducing that major is unacceptable.
The moron refs blew the opportunity to get control of this game. 2 minutes for that? Despite what these idiot announcers claimed, this hit was everything but clean. Brutal hit -- deserved a game misconduct. But Cousins F'ed around and acted like a coward and found out later when he was grabbed and pounded down. If the refs aren't going to police the game, the players are. And if players are going to run around and then not man-up for their actions, they are gonna take a beating.
@@CapraObscuraso its a rule now that I have to position myself to take a hit when a player is chasing behind me? I thought the rule was that he couldn’t hit me from behind into the boards but I guess you know more than the rule book
Please tell me how he sold it? If you've ever been hit that hard in ANY sport. You're going to take a second. Imagine just hitting youre head really hard on something? Has that even happened you before? The dude obviously took a second to get his fucking bell that just got rung back in order and then went after the man that laid a dirty ass hit on him. Even if it was clean, this is hockey buddy. You answer for shit sometimes. Maybe you're just a panther fan? idk but if you've ever watched the sport this is what happened and with this exact eample it was warranted. Cousins turtled too. Twice. What a little bitch!@@CapraObscura
If Gudbranson doesn’t immediately get up from that and starts throwing punches, cousins gets 5 games. Cousins getting jumped later is not surprising, the refs F’d up. I’m not a fan of either team for the record
That is/was/always will be a hit from behind. Number, of Gudbranson, 44 is showing. Cousins lit him up anyway. Then cowers to the ice like a punk. Matt Cooke is Cousins' hero.
The fact he got up and was like “alright let’s fight about it” got me 😂 but that was a terrible hit and terrible reffing. Cousins should’ve been out for the rest of game and a game misconduct. Bettman won’t give a shit though…all he cares about is money and not the players. Only players he does care about is the whiny babies who complain about literally nothing that affects them. (Basically the babies who stripped away all the fun at event nights although the other 99% of the league is trying to bring it all back and good on em.)
you guys haven’t seen what 44 does after? Shortly after this hit later in the game, 44 lays out cousins and throws him to the ground and pretty much beats his a*s.
Lmao Gudbransson laying on the ice just long enough to get the call then popping right back up with his gloves off. Perfectly describes him as a player.
If that happened to McDavid it would've been a game misconduct to Cousins and probably a suspension. The hit was 100% from behind, Cousins hit Gudbranson right on the 4.
Kane hit Brodin on a similar play to this and received no penalty. Meanwhile, Brodin is out for at least a month. I guess it's all in who and which team.
It’s a minor boarding penalty. If players knew how to take a hit and protect themselves when a guy is clearly going for the check, but instead put themselves in a bad position, they deserve some responsibility in it too. And that’s what happened here.
You brace for the hit when you actually get to the boards. No player should need to start bracing where Gudbranson got hit because no player should be making that type of hit at that time. What is his option? Skating away from the puck and letting the other player have it? How long you think someone remains in the NHL if they do that?
I wonder if an NHL announcer like this ever got called as a witness in a criminal case, if his testimony could be thrown based on footage like this....clearly they have no judgement. just a weird thought as I listen to this idiot ramble on about this being Gudbranson's fault.
Look it wasn’t a vicious play but it’s a hit from behind fs even if it was shoulder against the shoulder it was still from behind him not beside him cousins should know better 2 then tho a throw a hit there 🤷♂️
shoulder to shoulder IS CRAZY whoever this commentator is he should be fired like how to you lie like that for everyone on tv... and the refs not giving a major is a slippery slope...
these florida announcers are absolute trash. i cant believe they blame gudbranson for being in a vulnerable position. cousins knew exactly what he was doing.. dropping the shoulder then riding him with his back turned. cousins is dirty and should have got a 5 game suspension
This is what happens when the officials don’t enforce standards, or fit the the penalty for offense. While this offense may not meet the criteria of “charging.” Notice how both blades (Cousins) were off the ice during the hit… That’s a “solid” boarding violation that was not only intentional but was meant to create maximum impact. How in the world did they miss this upon review and downgrade it to a minor!? … I love the five or so smack down blows from Gudbranson on the follow up… Cousins then returns to the bench like a b****. … GO JACKETS!
These florida commentators are easily the second worst homers in the league after jack edwards. I hope the play by play guy gets a beating he so desperately needs.
Someone has never played sports and had their bell rung before lol. If he was really trying to sell it, do you think he would have got up and started fighting the dude? Get real
I didn’t realize guys could just fake injuries till after the whistle then pop right back up to goon the guy who hit you. If you wanna call it boarding then you gotta call Gudbranson for embellishment… but sheeple will only see what they want to see
@@zachlesk5685where’s the embellishment? Gudbrandson was bleeding from his mouth and nose cuz his face went into the boards? He doesn’t have to be taken off in a stretcher for a boarding call, the evidence is on his face.
lol you’ve obviously never been hit before. Sometimes you take a second to take inventory of your own body. Who knows if Cousins said something to get him up off the ice… his face hit the fuckin boards dude.
dude slipped when cousins initiated the hit on his shoulder causing his back to rotate into the hit. unfortunate and looks bad but it's really not a penalty in my eyes
@@dannymulligan7945gudbransons skate literally clips cousins which turns him backwards… imagine if Gudbranson was a smart player, he never would’ve gotten that low coming around a corner like that
Lemme ask you this. If you wanna say boarding bitch and whine whatever say it’s boarding… but did Gudbranson not lie on the ice motionless for more than 7 seconds then immediately pop back up to his feet when the whistle blows? Literal definition of embellishment… but you only see what you wanna see dumbfuck
“That’s not a hit from behind” as he literally hits him in the numbers 😅 what’s this guy smokin

Boarding, and Cousins left his feet. 5 + game is the only acceptable call here. But of course the refs are incompetent as usual.
Leaving your feet only applies until both bodies are touching, after there's a point of contact feet can be off the ice.
Refs shoulda booted him still
I don't have a dog in this argument but that is a boarding penalty. Cousins' hit him right at the second number "4", clearly.
