"Roy said after the game that Rantanen's hit was "disrespectful" to his team. "I hope he's going to be OK. At this moment, I don't know exactly what it is. But all I'm going to say is [that] when you see the number, you have to lay off. Everybody knows that. You don't go through the guy," said Roy. "I was in Colorado when [Rantanen] was drafted there. It's not his style. But at the same time, that should not be part of our game.""
""If you watch the play, I think Mayfield holds up Rants and they actually clip skates. So Rants is going off-balance going in there, too. If you played the game and you're off-balance, you usually put your hands out," said Gulutzan."
""you're not going to f---ing finish that game,""
Patrick Roy unleashed a profane tirade at Mikko Rantanen after Rantanen was ejected for a boarding play that sent Alex Romanov violently into the end boards. Romanov was helped from the ice and later reported not to have required hospital transport. Rantanen received a five-minute major and an automatic game misconduct; he leads the Stars with 27 points in 20 games. New York won the game 3-2 on the road. The play will be reviewed by the NHL Department of Player Safety for possible supplemental discipline, while Dallas offered a differing interpretation of the contact.
