@rosey I know a little bit more about it, mainly through osmosis. You might still enjoy it though. It does a decent enough job at building backstory, little slow at the beginning but it ends up making sense later. It's more funny and less scary so don't go in expecting to be scared. It's like... Comic mischief.
@elftummy I like winter, but I like autumn a little bit more. Cold enough I can wear a hoodie all the time and I don't have to pay as much on my electric bill. I hate dealing with snow, but I like looking at it.
@RatPoster not even voting on this one ![]()
@blaaablaaaa how much you wanna bet everyone who got this just plugged it into their home computer no holds barred
@Terry @ChristiJunior @LukeAlmighty @MeBigbrain @PinochetsCommieCopter @Shlomo @Wormwood it's absolutely insane that people are comparing these two. he's on the ground when he gets sliced and the guy's leg isn't being flung up into the air.
yes, there's precedent for the injury itself happening, and many people have been saying that neck guards should be mandatory now because it's happened enough times to be a serious cause for concern, but the WAY these injuries have happened is NOT the same as Johnson's.
@caekislove @Terry @ChristiJunior @LukeAlmighty @PinochetsCommieCopter @Shlomo @Wormwood most of the hockey recordings i've seen before like 2012 are pretty low quality. you gotta' keep in mind that, even then people were still using CRTs and although good capture cards existed, most people were using budget solutions.
@ChristiJunior @Terry @LukeAlmighty @PinochetsCommieCopter @Shlomo @Wormwood I found this article that explains a bit more of what his past has been like. He's got a history of suspensions and fines, even for slew footing.
"In 2010, Petgrave was suspended for five games, according to the Canadian Hockey League, which wrote, “Matt Petgrave will sit out the next five games for an infraction in the third period of last Saturday’s 9-4 win over Sarnia.”
In 2018, the ECHL announced that “Brampton’s Matt Petgrave has been suspended indefinitely and fined an undisclosed amount as a result of his actions in ECHL Game #963, Brampton at Kalamazoo, on April 7.” The ECHL is a mid-level professional ice hockey league based in New Jersey.
That same year, he was suspended for one game, according to the American Hockey League, which wrote on its website, “Laval Rocket defenseman Matt Petgrave has been suspended for one (1) game as a consequence of a slew-footing incident in a game at Toronto on Mar. 28. Petgrave was suspended under the provisions of AHL Rule 21.1 after being assessed a match penalty. He will miss Laval’s game tonight (Mar. 30) at Binghamton.”
According to the U.S. Hockey Rule Book, “Slew Footing is the act of a player using his leg or foot to knock or kick an opponent’s feet from under him.”
A statement on the ECHL’s website said, “Petgrave is fined and suspended under Rule #28 – Supplementary Discipline as a result of his actions at 3:46 of the third period. Petgrave will miss Brampton’s game against Adirondack today (April 8) and any further discipline will be announced at a later date.” That article did not provide additional details."
Another clue as to what really happened to Adam Johnson.
This video was posted on YouTube 13 years ago (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1gFX1sxUv1Q).
Looks like this has always been Matt Petgrave's MO. Look at that leg.
An extremely reckless and callous player.

I saw this video of Matt Petgrave kicking Adam Johnson in the neck last night with his hockey skate and killing him and thought “that looked intentional”
When I shared this post, it had less than 100 RTs
Now it’s gone viral with more than 9,000 RTs and my For You feed is filled with posts about this incident
Adam Johnson’s family deserves justice for what happened
This wasn’t a “freak accident”
It was a deliberate cheap shot from a dirty player with the most penalty minutes in the league
A man died in a horrific way while playing a sport where this incident almost never happens
Lock up and charge with Matthew Petgrave with voluntary manslaughter at the least and possible 2nd degree murder
