HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAH

Lol

Finally playing his best hockey!

The kid’s been getting whacked by cheap shots for three years. Looks like he’s not only grown his hockey sense but he’s probably put on a needed 10-15 pounds to his frame. Some of these baby Sabres (Cozens, Mitts, Krebs, Bryson, Quinn, Peterka) will really take their games to the next level when their bodies mature…you can’t be strong on the puck at 168 pounds.

He chopped at Matthews' groin at 0:05 No wonder Matthews wanted to decapitate him

@@tonybleau6219 closer look, the stick glances off matthews knee

Bunting dont even know what happend....and he come full rage

Ya i was thinkin that too, good on him

Anderson is old school. He knew someone from Toronto was gonna rush in over this cause Matthews is there.

You don’t see a goalie putting himself in that position often. Very wholesome

He acts as veteran who stood up for his Star player/rookie

He probably also figured that they were going on the power play, and didn't want one of their own going in the box too.

Swedish stoicism.

He took that like a champ.

Just wish someone on the Sabres would of went after Bunting faster. Grew a spine Buffalo.

@@bertoneill2488 *would have ..... you mouth breathing basement dweller lol

By the looks of Dahlin, he takes a lot of things to the face 🤣

I like how he sat Matthews the cry-baby on his ass with authority...... that's being a champ

@@good2goskee you buffalo fans will celebrate anything eh?

@@good2goskee ye dont wanna poke the bear. never seen him this angry. going forward this will gain AM extra room.

@@bBrooksR Other than their jerseys, I could care less about the Swordsmen. Cudos where due.... Dhalin showed class and kickass strength. Austin showed classless pre-madona dramatics... Maple Laugh fans kill me 😆. If Austin, JT, or Waterbug's farts smell different, it becomes headline news in TO.

@@pwilliams5724 meh! AM breaks a nail and your city goes into panic. Dirty cross checkers don't create room for themselves.... dirty cross checkers usually end up receiving deserved cheap shots. Leaving the gloves on and using the stick yields AM zero respect.

And in the playoffs it only costs you 5k! You can even RKO someone's head into the ice FOR FREE!

Well he deserved it so diving would have been a weak look

@@Gl-my8fw Deserved? He was just playing strong and keeping the front of his goal clean, and Matthews got all pissy and dirty. Lost some respect for Auston here, but gained for Rasmus.

@@Jayzon666 GI is a Leafs fan, so every time a Leaf gets touched in any way he feels it should b3e 5 and a game for the player having the temerity to dare touch a Toronto Maple Leaf... #Twat

@@Jayzon666 dahlin cross check him into the net, got tapped back and cross check him into the net again, that's dirty. If Matthew's want to " show the league not to F with him" he shouldn't have tickled dahlins neck, he should have just laid him out and stood over top of dahlin like in those famous Mohammed Ali pictures. Check cross checks over and over, never being called, just take 10 games off and end someone's season. If you're dirty, you need a lesson.

@@peterp4981when did he cross check Matthews in the neck? They were having a net front battle, then Matthews took it too far

I am scared to fall so when someone hits me I won't go down

Except when ge got layed out by him at the begging of the shift lmao

What a neck..

Matthews better get suspended high stick to the head

@HitEmWithThe 34 lmao cry you loser

@HitEmWithThe 34 no he wasn’t , Dahlin I kool , hope Matthews gets suspended hight stick to the head

he did cry after the game yea

@@alberthamel6039 it wasnt an intended crosscheck to the neck. look again in slow motion, Dahlin's own stick redirected the action of Matthews' stick towards Dahlin's neck. it should be nothing more than a fine

He does look a lot more composed on the ice this year.

Yeah very fine line tho. Cross checks are a penalty, but you can push a player with your stick like that. It’s all in the elbows. Cross checks hurt in the right spots. Refer to lacrosse.

A cross check across the numbers isn't battling in front of the net... doesn't justify Mathews reaction, but that's not what defensemen SHOULD be doing lol

@@roblilt7359 watch any game ever, its not what "should" be happening but it's what is happening all the time.

@@roblilt7359 LOL

As a Toronto fan you are correct I'm tired of our soft ass defense

He definitely takes it.

😂😂

Well done

Normally I’d agree but given the big stage, no chance. I say he gets 1 game.

Scheifele got a suspension and he had a clean record, so I don't see how Matthews can get away with this

@@jeremylalancette21 but it is Matthews !!!

@@jeremylalancette21 you dumb bro? Scheifele skated half the ice before laying a hit, you can’t compare the 2 goofie ass

@@6ix_deep138 You’re right. Scheifele was trying to stop a goal and Matthews just assaulted someone with a stick because he got knocked down and got his feelings hurt. No comparison at all.

Lmfao. How is what Dahlin did dirty in any? What Mathews did should have gotten him a broken jaw.

nah, probably a fine. if the foligno hit the other day wasnt a susprension, this isnt.

I mean Foligno wasnt suspended so i wouldnt be surprise

I would be embarrassed to be that stupid like you. So nevermind. We all got our problems. Austons is solved after the game. Yours? After death. :) So who is bigger issue to society? You or Auston?

@@OvieSnips8 leafs have no goaltending or defense… again

Leafs always lose to these bum ass teams, watch them beat Carolina no problem this week because of course

yup, truth

I agree. A lot of folks think Dahlin crosschecked first, but I don't think so. The follow through of a push looks like a cross check, but like you said, it's all in the wind-up. Without the wind-up, it's just a hard shove, a battle in front.

Matthews has been taking dirty hits/plays for a long time….never retaliated..RAG DOLLED with a smile on his face…HE SHOWED EVERYONE HE ISNT TAKING IT ANY MORE. He’s definitely not a crybaby…he’s an incredible player with more skil than any Swede in NHL right now!

@@marylamanna3325 So you are saying Mathew's hit was legal? If so, put down the damn pipe Mary. you are already way too high...

@@lrimmf I clearly said AM was wrong he got penalized. I was talking about the tackle on Bunting…Cozens hit on AM was clean but he clearly came up behind Bunting & tacked him…oh & by the way I’m in my 80’s and don’t smoke anything but maybe I should start.

Leafs fans would be asking for the death penalty.

@@independentmind7782 And getting it, Mathews is the most protected star next to Ovi.

Right Dahlin out for at least 10

@@Jabokrazy You don't watch hockey much do you? So far this season, Auston Matthews has drawn just 3 penalties. The league leader is Connor McDavid, who has drawn 18 penalties. These are the NHL’s undisputed two best players. Both of them constantly have the puck, and both are playing a ton of minutes. The three games Matthews has missed do not account for such a discrepancy.

@@Spincat08 McDavid is, Matthews is NOT.

If you look very closely, you can see how Dahlin lifted his stick up against Matthews' stick and it binds up at the corner of Matthews' stick and glow for a small split second. The movement stops but Dahlin is still pulling Matthews' stick up. Matthews wanted to crosscheck Dahlin by shoving him to his arm. Dahlin keeps lifting his stick up and Matthews' stick ends up getting lifted to the neck level of Dahlin. Dahlin's stick continues its movement to Matthews' armpit indicating the still continued upwards pulling. This pulling upwards motion caused Matthews' stick to hit Dahlin's neck instead of arm.

YOU ARE A CLOWN

@@MrBrander ok, he still shouldn't use his stick, that's still a dirty play.

​@@bipolarpunt5721 ya so what. It's against the rules, but sometimes the refs let the boys play. What matthews did was deplorable. Just a rotten intentional dirty play that could have broken his neck. Suckle up to matthews more, will ya?

Returned the favor? Dahlin hit him first.

Anderson stepped in right away because he knew Dahlin would get pummeled if the gloves came off.

@@jugsteve Dahlin never crossed the line. Matthews did. Dirty dirty

@@reallist8050 Exactly

as a leafs fan... he should be. 2 games to 5.. if the league actually wants to get rid of bad cross checks

To be fair they should have a powerplay because thats the definition of crosschecking attacking mathews

@@theogreenaway7401 Matthews crosscheck was worse, lucky he didn't get a 10 for intent to injure

@@SabresGuy87 if the other guy got no penaltys then mathews gets a minor if the the othrr guys got a penalty then sure

Yeah I feel like He looked foolish a few times. Don’t blame him for trying though. Got to go when the star player is involved. Just never worked out for him granted he could have got around Anderson if he really wanted too

Yeah, well, he tried, but he's definitely not the player to protect the star. If Simmonds was 10 years younger, he'd be the guy, not Bunting. Not a fan of the team, but there games are always on, so I see what I see. Y'know, I should coach that team. Better than the guy they have. If they get knocked out in the first round, they have to get rid of him.

usually it results in a fight ....not a tom wilson response.....

not intentional, Matthews' stick got redirected by dahlin's stick upwards

found the buffalo fan lol

@@LETZGONHLdraft hahaha. Slow motion does not show that. Also mathews elbows were head height right when he cracked his neck. You guys are hilarious.

Individuals with less self-esteem tend to experience schadenfreude more frequently and intensely.

@@webbdelasteve they also cling onto odd personality traits to try to make themselves feel superior or unique in some way. Like attaching themselves to German culture for no apparent reason.

It's the fans. The arrogant ones. I live here, so I experience it firsthand. No humility, They always find a scapegoat when they get beat out in the playoffs (1st round), but during the regular season -- "We're the best team! Stanley Cup, baby!" Plus, the sports talk radio announcers pump them up like they're the '82 Islanders or '85 Oilers when they're winning. They talk about Marner as if he's Gretzky, and Matthews is the second coming of Christ. Good players, but eeeeasy boys, easy.
