Finishing checks with an intent to injure is another and is bullshit, and you know that. You’re defending a guy who obviously intentionally meant to hurt his man by the aforementioned style and follow through of the hit. The problem in this regard isn’t the Nux needing to be tougher. It’s people defending this kind of shit as though the game consists of a bunch on Neanderthals on skates. If that’s how you view the sport then perhaps you need to check your status on the evolutionary tree. Wake up dude, you’re so far off on this with your takes, and the subsequent reaction to them…it should be an indicator that the impetus for your argument is flawed and totally incoherent. Maybe you like heat and coming off as heel…at some point though enough people will just ignore you and then you’re meaningless to this board. Just a heads up. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have been hit by someone 5 times bigger than me and the results are in. Skill only works when you aint scared of that 240 lbs guy coming your way. Canucks are sadly short of the big guys. Boston, 2011 You're an idiot. In no world is that a clean hit. Even if the hit itself was clean, it would still be interference. But sticking out your leg to trip a guy and throw him to the ice isn't a clean hit.

Popular Post sashimi Posted October 26, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted October 26, 2023 (edited) For anyone that was worried about the severity of the head injury due to the convulsions... It's most likely that Podz had concussive convulsions. Basically, this happens rarely with concussions but isn't indicative of a more severe brain injury or complications other than the concussion itself. Hopefully Podz is able to make a quick recovery without any lasting symptoms. From the National Library of Medicine: "Concussive convulsions are characterized by myoclonic or tonic–clonic motor convulsions that occur within seconds of head injury. They are thought to occur in the absence of epileptic brain activity. Initially described in adults by Jennet2 as “immediate epilepsy” — defined explicitly as the occurrence of a generalized convulsion “within moments of injury” — the phenomenon was found to have no association with the development of subsequent seizures.2 Much of what has since been learned about concussive convulsions is derived from observational studies involving elite adult Australian rules football and rugby league players, where the reported incidence of concussive convulsions is about 1 in every 70 cases of concussion.3 In a retrospective study, McCrory and colleagues4 detailed the cases of 22 adult football players with concussive convulsions. Within two seconds of head impact, the athletes typically displayed a loss of consciousness and brief tonic phase, followed by bilateral myoclonic or clonic jerking of the extremities lasting no longer than 150 seconds. Following the event, patients showed clinical symptoms consistent with sports-related concussion. All players underwent neuroimaging studies with normal results. Twenty-one players underwent electroencephalography (EEG), which was normal in all cases, with the exception of one player who showed transient left temporal slow wave activity in the period directly after injury and in whom EEG studies were normal in follow-up at one week and two years. All of the athletes returned to full sporting activities, and none experienced recurrent seizures. The authors postulated that concussive convulsions were not caused by structural brain injury and the pathophysiological mechanisms governing posttraumatic seizures, but were instead likely mediated by transient functional decerebration similar to the corticomedullary dissociation seen in convulsive syncope.3,4 Since these seminal studies, a subsequent prospective study involving Australian footballers found that more subtle motor manifestations, particularly tonic posturing without clonic movements, occurred in almost a quarter of sports-related concussions, likely representing a less extreme form of the concussive convulsion phenomenon with an equally benign outcome.5 Current practice recommendations suggest that neuroimaging and EEG studies have normal results in this patient population3 and should only be used to rule out structural brain injury if other clinical indications are present, such as focal neurologic deficit or altered level of consciousness. 1 The prognosis of this condition is excellent, and antiepileptic medication is not required. Patients who have concussive convulsions can be safely returned to full sporting activities after documented recovery from the associated concussion."

Using someone's potentially serious injury to prove how tough you are is weak. As weak as it comes. Very immature take so I hope you're young and can still learn. It's time to read the room and find another topic to participate in at this point. Not sure why you're still able to reply, but that will change if this persists. Thing is, with head injuries sometimes the initial diagnosis is good but it's long term effects that come into play. Podz is in the prime of his life, as a new Dad with a bright future. I hope this doesn't impact it. And the guy who took him down should be addressed. I'm not sure it was "an accident". I'm also not saying it was dirty or intentional but that should be decided after a good, hard look at how it went down. Speedy recovery, Podz! 7 1 7 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will post something here just because of the medical question. This is mostly pretty accurate. Post traumatic seizure like this is very scary and dramatic when it happens but in isolation (as highlighted as lacking altered LOC or other neurological deficits) is not necessarily a bad indicator. There are much worse after a head injury such as vomiting and persistent confusion. They provided the interesting comparison of compulsive syncope, that is when someone gets up to quickly, faints and has seizure like activity. I remember as shithead kids hyperventilating and then blocking carotids to stimulate that type of thing. Thought the last paragraph was interesting in that it concludes that lacking other signs not to do neuroimaging or EEG. Given the mechanism of injury, being thrown onto his head on the ice with his neck flexed, I definitely would have scanned both head and C-spine if I was the emergency doctor. This also runs into a very interesting area in medical ethics where the team and athlete often have different goals than what an emergency department would. For now they would appear to just need to treat this like a concussion. The seizure doesn't even indicate necessarily that it is a bad concussion. Good luck to Podz and his family, seems like a genuinely good young man. 3 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
