“Really Dangerous Play”: Nasty Move by Canucks Star Called ‘Frustration Headshot’ by NHL World

The NHL game between the Seattle Kraken and the Vancouver Canucks showed why the Canucks were the league’s least popular team. The Canucks’ 6-1 obliteration came at the cost of Kraken center Matthew Beniers. After punching Beniers in the head during the game, Canucks defenseman Tyler Myers made it clear that Beniers wouldn’t be able to play for his team for a while.

The incident occurred during the second period of the game when the Seattle Kraken was already up 2-0. Even though Matthew Beniers didn’t have the puck, Tyler Myers came out of nowhere and completely knocked Beniers out. After Myers hit Beniers, the referee called him out right away, and the Kraken was given a penalty.

The NHL world isn’t having any of this

Fans of the NHL all over the world reacted to this situation in different ways. Some were for Tyler, while others were for Beniers. When people had different ideas, it split the community.

An Edmonton Oilers fan has left a comment regarding this situation that reads, “That should have been a major in my opinion. And I’m an Oilers fan so there’s no bias. Really dangerous play especially with the way Matty’s head hits the ice.”

This gamer fan relates this incident to the NHL 23 game, saying, “This is the most NHL 23 frustration penalty I’ve ever seen.”

It looks like this fan wants the ice rink to turn into a boxing ring as they say, “I know Myers is like 6 foot 14, but you gotta think someone from Seattle needs to step up when a guy shoves your star rookie like that.”

This comment has a sarcastic approach towards the incident and reads, “Tyler Myers taking a stupid penalty for literally no reason? No way!”

Here are some comments that have received mixed opinions from NHL fans.

“The only time I’ve ever seen Myers hit somebody.. and it’s a penalty.”

“Imagine missing your first all star game as a rookie because of this.”

“2 years ago he injured Armia for months on a frustration headshot, score was like 6-2 with 2minutes and 45seconds to go. His punishment for it was a phone call from DOPS, that’s it. We wonder why he still does these things.”

“Seattle has to drop gloves in that situation. Can’t let your rookies get punk’d like that.”
