Wild’s Marcus Foligno Assessed Major Penalty And Game Misconduct For Kneeing Stars’ Radek Faksa

Funny how he was able to get his whole upper body out of the way…..
The most Intent I've seen in a while
What a pos

The NHL should be embarrassed by the officiating in this series. I’ve never seen such one sided calls in any sport

Never stuck his leg out ,But only he knows the intentions

on the replay you can see Foligno skated in a straight line and was bracing for impact on a clean hit. you can see him turning to initiate shoulder contact but, faksa rolls to avoid the hit, which left his knee to take the brunt of the contact. It was ugly, but foligno didn't go out of his way or lead with his own knee. shouldn't have been a penalty. That Faksa got carried off the ice in an ambulance and doesn't actually miss a shift echo's the wilds point of diving for calls. you could argue 2 minutes for interference on foligno, but also would need to do 2 minutes for embellishment.

Minor penaltie all day, but a major, and a game? It's hockey, it's playoffs! I saw nothing deliberately done there. Unreal, unfair.

Not a fan of either team but players that jumps out of incoming hits = this is what happens. Foligno should've had 2 minutes from game 4 and 5 combined. Not 19 lol.

I can't stand Hartman and Foligno

At least the second hit where the Diving Stars are trying to jump out of the way and somehow that's Moose's fault. If they could man up and take a hit worthy of their size instead of embellishing everything maybe we could be playing hockey instead of basketball 🏀. That guy literally looks up like he's fine, sees the camera, and quick tucks his head back down

the wild are the dirtiest team i’ve seen in the past decade

dang when did matt cooke come back into the league

I love Marcus Foligno. But u can't do that.

Not a dirty hit but it’s definitely one that is avoidable and unnecessary

It will be interesting to see what player safety has to say about this. Makar received a 1 game suspension for a minor penalty. A major and a misconduct would be more than that, surely. Additionally, if Foligno has received multiple penalties for kneeing this season and last, that shows intent/malice.

Foligno won't be getting any breaks for the rest of this year. Shame, he plays the game the way it should be played. Nobody goes to a game to watch you refs, get that straight in your heads.

That was total bs… no major, this is playoff hockey, league has terribly inconsistent officiating and enforcement- what a joke…

That's all Foligno does is take runs at people. Him and Reeves are talented but chaep shot artist

He tried not to hit him in the head….and they tossed him for it. Boy they sure didn't waste any time showing how pissed they were about his post game comments

When the wild’s coach said he wanted to see penalties, I didn’t he was implying even if it was at the cost of the series

Should have been called on both players. They both extended their legs.

Another Dallas dive. Figures

Gotta keep your head up. Foligno was just going after Faksa who had the puck.

I’m going to preface this point by saying I am in no way a WILD fan, (I’m actually an Avs fan). That being said, if nearly any other player happens to make knee on knee contact in this game they would get 2 or maybe even 5 minutes at a stretch. The fact that Foligno made true comments about the refs the night before, was the kiss of death for him on this call. I’m surprised they didn’t give him a two game suspension. Just horrendous officiating.
