  • Senators suck

  • Clean hit

  • hey he opened the box for him self

  • Good hit. Nothing wrong with that.

  • Whenever there's a 6'6" 245 lb guy on the ice make sure you know where he is at all times.

  • Clean hit. Leopold should have got a 2 minute penalty for the awful form on his inverted mctwister, although the landing with his face was pretty good.

  • @brokenbrainz1 Right. Elbow to head = clean.

  • @GrayBread DIRTY DUMB ASS 

  • @mjbruce11 I was being sarcastic. The other guy said it was a clean hit.

  • great hit too bad the league sucks now, 10 years ago this would have been on NHL highlight videos

  • @havoc00 Trying to protect the players doesn't make the league suck. Do you see how many concussions there are? So they make these kind of hits illegal

  • Terrible hit.

  • keep your head up.

  • the commentator is a complete retard at 2:10. he kept his elbow at his side the whole time because he saw leopold had his head down the whole time and that he was vulnerable. this was intentional for sure.

  • Small guy leaning forward versus huge guy using the "bee-sting" approach to checking, as Garry Galley likes to say.

    One of the most violent hits ever. The way Leopold's body contorts after the contact...

  • not sure what to say about this hit

    at first sight it seems obvious that it's a suspension

    but sutton doesnt actually do anything wrong

    Leopold was almost kneeing and that's why he got hit in the head

  • Nite nite

  • GO SENS GO

  • Sutton's a foot taller than Leopold. Leopold shouldn't have his head down being that small. Legal hit.

  • @Chris87654321 are you an expert?

  • Sutton fell into the penalty box right after hitting him lol. Destiny?

  • that hit waz dirty he hit him in the head, he went for his head that should be roughing or unsportsmanlike

  • did he die?

  • @dangleman1 LOL really he's fine maybe a concusion

  • Why were the Penguins not penalized here? This is what pisses me off. Big but CLEAN hits that end in players going after the hitter. There should at least be a minor for roughing.

  • clean fucking hit, why do you want to protect benders who cant even control the puck with their head up

  • Keep your head up. Players are now getting rewarded for keeping themselves unprotected(Heads down in open ice, going directly into boards) so there are a ton more injuries, but the players don't care because the other guys get a penalty.

  • Highlight hit heroes end careers.

  • OUT BEFORE HE HIT THE FUCKING GROUND

  • this was a perfect hit!!! Leopolds head was down! NEVER PUT YOUR HEAD DOWN

  • i like how crosby looks around before going to his teammates aid. pussy

  • nice hit but his elbow does make contact with leopolds head, that being said, sutton is so tall that he doesent have any other choice to hit. His elbow is at thier head.

  • @daparkstaman522 Stick on the ice, elbows down against your side. Not a good hit in the least because of those two things. Had he had his elbow against his side and his shoulder wrecked Leopold's face, it would have been a good hit because it's a body check that just happened to smoke a guy in the face.

  • Lights Out.

  • Good hit .. perfectly timed

  • And Sutton instantly fell into the penalty box.

  • cant be mad at the Sutton... he went for a hit and the other guys head was down... clean hit but yet for pro hockey players it was dirty... there is no reason you want to hit a guy like that. Sutton should not have gone for that hit. it was clean but also dirty.

  • @NinjaPr00 your an asshole

  • I watched this again, please watch a replay and it shows Suttons elbow landed to the head of Leopold. Sutton would should to keep his hand in his body and not open when he threw hit his, thats why the result was bad because of mix of hard speed and elbow.

  • or better yet, are guys who got fuckin cranked as a kid and could never get the balls to accept it, or do it back. kids need to do 3 things, 1) learn to fuckin skate properly by taking power skating, and 2)learn to fuckin hit and take a hit, and 3)after all that, learn to do those things WITH and WITHOUT the puck. dont change the game for the kids who can do that for the pussies who cant and get tossed around because of it. stop bitching about the game and man up or dont watch or play. nuff said

  • its fuckin hockey and you know what you could be in for when you sign up. if you dont wanna possibly get ko'd by a hit, hit from behind, beat up, hit with a puck, possibly sliced by a skate, then play golf or tennis. dont change the game for us who played it and love it the way it is. its a fast paced, high octane, hard hitting game. the guys bitching about head shots and concussions are guaran-fuckin-teed the guys who pusses out going into corners or threw the puck away to avoid a hit as a kid

  • the game of hockey is being raided by pussies who cant keep their heads up and avoid stuff like this. the crosby hit was dirty, and yes here are on occasion there are some viscous, dirty hits. but for the most part, guys get hurt because they turn their backs to avoid a hit instead of taking it, or they watch their fuckin feet while they stick handle. pisses me right off with the amount of fuckin idiots who have never played, or never played anything more than house league.

  • haha he let himself into the penalty box :)

  • If Crosby got hit like that his head would disintegrate.

  • Sutton kept his elbow down, but he's too big. Maybe he has to crouch. These announcers... and it's not just these guys - they determine if it's a late hit by looking at slow motion replays. I've even heard color commentators count steamboats in slow motion and get upset after each steamboat they count.

  • keep your head up prick

  • @NingaPr00

    You know what else is soft grass.

    In football your tackling the guy not hitting him, sure there are some hits in football but you cannot fucking compare that hit to a qb sack. Also compare the 82 NHL games to the 16 games in an NFL season. There is also a statistic that in an NFL game there is only 12min of actual football. So have a nice time watching commercials, repays and fat people standing around for three hours and be sure not to blink you might miss the game

  • @grampabeotches lol sutton is 6'6 n leopold is 5'11, how do you expect sutton to put down his elbow ya dumb fuck,

  • @NinjaPr00 what? it has nothing to do with white people, and you know there are a wide array of ethnicities in the NHL. But I will just cast you aside as a childish troll.

  • @NinjaPr00 "white people" ? you fucking faggot. you don't even know how to take a hit buddy. last time i checked, hockey was the only sport with some real contact.

  • @NinjaPr00 I Dont See Anybody Doing This in Basketball, why are you complaining?

  • @NinjaPr00 I would love nothing more than for you to skate as hard as you can and have a 6'6 200+ pound guy skating as hard as he can into you. Please arrange this and film it so we can all laugh our asses off at you being fucking destroyed.

  • @NinjaPr00 When people say that in my country, they get beaten...

  • @NinjaPr00 Hey, instead of trying to start a youtube racial war why don't you get yourself back into school and learn fucking english you moron. Your sentence isn't even a sentence!

    And further more, if you don't like hockey...why you watching it on youtube?

  • @NinjaPr00 lets see you try to skate or let alone play in the NHL -_- pussy

  • @NinjaPr00 well done you deserve a nobel prize for special little guy (retard) award. you won a free mcdonalds for a year you fat shit

  • @NinjaPr00 I'm sorry, who won WWI and WWII?

  • @NinjaPr00 bitch i would like to see you play in the nhl, wouldnt last a minute you soft piece of shit.

  • @NinjaPr00 what the fuck do you play then .... basketball? pfft roll their ankle and out for weeks

  • Pretty sad that pro athletes forgot the simple "play with your head up".

  • Sutton is a beast, Leopold had his head down...

  • DONT GET SHOOK!

  • @ 0:59 "a very TEDIOUS moment here at mellon arena."

    uh, that word doesn't mean what you think it means.

  • @NinjaPr00 Hockey is by far a more brutal sport, but it is being raided by pussies.

  • @NHLArchive true that!

  • @NHLArchive agreed!

  • @NinjaPr00 Less padding in hockey, ice is WAY FUCKING HARDER than soil, guys around 100-200 lbs. lighter in hockey, and hockey players take way more hits than football players.

    You don't watch hockey. It's obvious. If ESPN played hockey on their channel, you might understand the simplest concepts about the sport. That is, if you aren't a retard. Which you can remove all doubt if you would like to post a rebuttal.

  • @NinjaPr00 You're a fucking moron

  • @NinjaPr00 You would'nt last in contact hockey

  • Comment removed

  • @NinjaPr00 you sir, are so incredibly incorrect I can't even begin to fathom what I just read

  • @NinjaPr00 you have no idea what you are talking about

  • @NinjaPr00 yo idiot you must of missed the ICE SKATING part of this hit..on blades you got alot faster than a football defense could and it was an elbow to the head..not to forget that football players have more protection on their head and how football is stop and go while hockey can be nonstop. which makes hockey more brutal so stfu and go back to watching men in tights touch each other.

  • @NinjaPr00 there also go 5x faster on skates retard. football is for fags in tight pants

  • @NinjaPr00 youve obviously never played hockey, or taken physics. higher speeds = more energy = more momentum = more violent collision

  • @NinjaPr00 lol have you watched the NFL this season? a poke check is a QB sack faggot.

  • @NinjaPr00 Lmfao you fag are you stupid? He just knocked him out, with an elbow to the face. In football, i the QB gets hit hard, he somehow always manages to get hurt.

  • @NinjaPr00 go back to football troll this is hockey

  • @NinjaPr00 Dude get you're fucking asian ass out of here "ninja"queer

  • @NinjaPr00 Football players get tackled on soft grass, Hockey players get solders to the head going 30 MPH and then land on ice, football players all all gay anyway, slappin eachother's asses with open hands..

  • @NinjaPr00 At about double the speed, yes.

  • @NinjaPr00 football players wouldn't stand a chance playing hockey.

  • @NinjaPr00 Honestly that has to be one of the most idiotic comments I've ever seen on YouTube, and that's really saying something. So congrats. And to blame an entire race based on one person? Damn you must've dropped out of school in the elementary days.

  • @NinjaPr00 A normal quarterback sack? Sutton didn't dive for his ankles, he riddled him, nice name also, NinjaPr00, I remember that used to be cool, then I grew up to the age of 6. Football has atleast 1 outstand hard hit every 4th game, there are atleast 4 monster hits a game in hockey, and before you call me a pussy, I played rugby, the only gear in that sport is a mouthguard and cleats, what does football have again? Nuff' said.

  • @NinjaPr00

    Can I take a run at you? Remember, there are no out of bounds in hockey. If you think that hockey is full of softies then get a pair of skates and I will show a MANS sport. Go run out of bounds and sit on the bench like the little bitch you are.

  • is it just me or does he look like komisarek

  • are you an expert?

  • He opened the door to the penalty box for himself too.

  • It was a good/tough hit, by a f'n dirty player !!!

  • @lavigneeric sutton isn't that dirty, just loves to crank guys

  • @NHLArchive I agree he isn't that dirty, but I wouldn't come close to calling him a clean player. I respect his style of play, but he's past his time. Had he been playing in the 80s-90s instead of post-lockout, the only hit that would even be considered dirty back then was his hit on Dupris.

    He has to learn to keep his feet on the ice too.

  • @lavigneeric Direct contact to the head. No one likes to see a player lay motionless like that. That being said, i agree that the league has become VERY soft.

  • @rbkgoalr33 Very soft they have been sending suspensions left and right this year.If ur talking about years back then yes ur right but this is a week ago u must be on drugs.If anything they have been to hard stupid

  • @NewsandReports What is the point of your response? You seem to agree with me and then disagree? Sutton deserved a suspension on this play by the new rules. I like that they are getting rid of the contact to the head hits and blindsides. But many of the suspensions this year have been pointless hits, like Lucic on Rinaldo of the flyers. One of the softest suspensions ive seen

  • @lavigneeric It was a blow to the head! It is NOT A GOOD hit...

  • @lavigneeric is a green light hit an elbow to the head?

  • @wowdothinga ... no clue !

  • That was soooo clean, it's not his fault leopold has his head down

  • Holy crap he got knocked to next tuesday with that hit

  • clean hit, poor bastard had his head down

  • Ottawa is actually only 1 point out of a playoff position so they could definitely be doing worse:P

  • there was no elbow to the head :/ wow some people are dumb

  • elbow to the head, another talentless goof wrecking the game.

  • @prostar9993 Not an elbow...

    Another bandwagon Penguins fan who didn't watch hockey before the lockout.

  • I think Sutton enjoyes hurting people.

  • Shanahan would have never fought sutton. We called him Brenda

  • @13Xanadu about time all the head shots and any of them could have been career enders

  • I'd call this one clean.

  • Comment removed

  • t good 2 nice

  • clean hit ..

  • be better if it was cindy getting leveled

  • Where's Chris Tucker when you need him? haha

  • Good Clean Hit, Rocked him good

  • Lol the powerball sign said 212 million. Thats how much that hit was worth.

  • That wasn't illegal back then? Shanahan would give like 10 games had this happened this season :D

  • @MrAlala911 which is sad because it is a beautiful clean hit

  • @NHLArchive

    But its illegal nowadays, am i right? Cos the head is targeted and what have you

  • @MrAlala911 Sutton didn't target the head, no was it principle point of contact or a blindside, Sutton literally just destroyed him. At some point you just have to look at it for what it is, a beauty of a ht and a huge mistake by Leopold.

  • @NHLArchive

    Well the hit was to the head area, the first slowmo shows it, atleast thats what i see :D It was Leopold mistake, sure, but im glad these are not legal cos they might cause concussions.

  • @MrAlala911 this hit is legal, what is illegal about it? It is a clean hit, the head contact is not targeting the head, nor is it principle point. Concussions happen, you cant prevent all of them.

  • @NHLArchive

    I think its illegal when the head takes most of the impact. Here Sutton greaces the shoulder and then 80% of the hit goes to the head. If he didn't hit Leopold in the head, he wouldn't have gone out cold like that.

  • @MrAlala911 sutton hits him everywhere, the fact is sutton is just a gigantic dude, you can't punish him for that.

  • @MrAlala911

    Maybe if Leopold had kept his damn head up we wouldn't be discussing this. Sutton Lined him up going backwards,Leopold put his head down and was reaching for the puck. Sutton Can't pull off and the result is shown in the video.

  • kinda hard to avoid head contact on that his head kinda hit in his arm pit.

  • Nothing wrong here, perfect hit. How you are saying Sutton is dumb player?? He can to hit, he is ok in his own end and can to give decent first pass, way underrated IMO. Not fastest but he plays all simple and smart usually.

  • the penlty box open opps wort that worg

  • Illegal hit lol he got his shoulder up on his head. If this was now that guy would be suspended for a shit load of time

  • pitt is a bunch of crybabys walk it off.

  • Remember when the onus was on the players not to put them selves in dangerous positions? Pepperidge farms remembers.

  • @NHLArchive sutton's a fag

  • honestly my favorite sport football is getting ruined and now you probably won't be able to hit any one in hockey any more either. Its a physical sport they know what there getting into

  • look at crosby after the hit what a bitch

  • Hahah i like the person in the white shirt in the crowd!

  • reminds me of a kronwall kinda hit

  • Comment removed

  • hahahha!!!! i love seeing a penguin get his ass layed out.. hahahahha!!!

  • I'm not a fan of either team. I understand hits. I understand they're part of hockey. I understand the meaning of "keep your head up". But is it 100% necessary to totally drill someone like that?

  • @raran44 yes, it was a clean hit.

  • @NHLArchive I agree. But do hitters/enforcers necessarily mean to hurt people like that?

  • @raran44 you don't intend to seriously injure them but you want to hit them as hard as possible so they know you are out there the rest of the game. Intimidation is an important part of hitting.

  • its a clean hit leopold looked down at the last second./

  • everyone fights right next to his body on the ice!! SOMEONE HELP HIM!!

  • i didnt know ottawa was in the playoffs lol

  • @NHLandPS369606 They went to the cup finals and have been in the playoffs a few times.

  • @NHLArchive no, i thought they haven't been in since they won the cup. I thought they were out in 2010

  • @NHLArchive Never won though and never will.

  • @NHLandPS369606 They've made the playoffs 12 of the past 14 seasons fucktard. Maybe you should start following hockey.

  • @scheke35 I do follow hockey you fuck up, and btw i dont follow teams who have a reputation to lose

  • @NHLandPS369606 That doesn't make sense, your pretty much saying you don;t watch hockey then becasue every team has to lose sometimes loooool fucking dipshit

  • @bpham10 you dumb ass, i mean a team who is completely shit like ottawa, you mad bro lol dumbfuck

  • @scheke35 They have no cups. That's why nobody remembers.

  • brokke the damm penalty box open!!

  • lalala 9ewedha fhadi , machi rejla

  • I love how the penalty box automatically opens after sutton hits him. Nothing wrong with that hit.

  • Sutton is an expert.

  • LOL Sutton hit Leopold so hard that the penalty door automatically opened up

  • does he play or not?

    

  • Sutton is a faggot

  • Now this hit was more worth a five game suspension than the hit he just got suspended for.

  • see, this is why no one wants andy sutton on their team... dirtiest player alive

  • 0:46 Sutton should have fallen straight into the penalty box.

  • Comment removed

  • Wait wait wait. Ottawa was in the playoffs??!

  • @202Redwings I'm Canadian and I didn't even know lol. They must have done horrible like always.

  • @202Redwings Yea, they had a 10 game win streak, lol what a joke they are now

  • @202Redwings Yeah in 2008-2009 season surprisingly they were

  • Ooops sorry i mean 2009-2010
