I don't want to watch the video so I don't know exactly what happened, but other than the goalie one there have been other close calls with skates coming close to necks. Plus people getting cut in other spots by skates, arms, legs etc.

Guy flat out high kicks the guy deliberately. You can't watch the video and come to any other conclusion. Did he think ahead enough to forsee that he might hit the guy in the throat and kill him? Probably not, but it was still an aggressive and reckless move.

It's okay if you've never played hockey before, no need to act like you have.
Clearly an accident unless he's secretly trained in Tae Kwon Do on skates. He loses his balance while trying to avoid a moving pick, gets spun around (because Brits are shit at hockey) and his skate comes up.

I watched the goalie one in HS, it's a lot of blood and that was enough for me. Yeah there have been a couple incidents of players getting arteries cut in their thighs and almost bleeding out from that, but actual neck cuts are incredibly rare. To be fair to the guy who was charged, that goalie would've 100% died if it wasn't for the PT reaching into his neck hole to pinch the artery to stem the bleeding, so it could be on the on-site medical staff for not saving the guy's life.

But to be even more fair, how many on-site medical staff have the training to reach into a neck hole and pinch an artery? Iirc the guy who did that was a combat med vet or something unusually well trained.

It was a fairly obvious intentional kick when you first saw it, and doubly so when you find out the guy has a history of using his legs for side-swipe kicks, like this old game of his.
I also still play hockey too and have since I was 12 (I'm obviously playing in old man beer leagues now) and this was a no-brainer from the start. Manslaughter.

I mean, it's not the same kicking motion as the one that killed Johnson, sure. Does it show Petgrave's proclivity towards using his leg to make a dirty play after a missed check? Yup.

Put simply: the two videos, plus Petgrave's history as a goon/enforcer, leading that league in PIMS, etc., show a dirty player who took his dirty play too far. He's not exactly a skill player, he's there to cause havoc and hit, and he likes to use his feet to do so.

Not to be that guy, but those are long-established hockey terms that generally referred to mayos, but mostly because it used to be a pretty much mayo-only sport. Basically, the goon/enforcer is there to be a physical presence to beat down on the opposing team, get into a scrap or two, and mostly defend your highly-skilled forwards from getting hit. And then have CTE for the rest of their lives. Bob Probert is the prototypical example.
But frick it, add those to the list too.

as a non hockycel , how likely was this an accident?
Jump in the discussion.
No email address required.
Petgrave didn't intentionally slash Johnson's throat, but he was probably trying to block/hit him with his leg and/or flailing around while embellishing a hit (flopping). It's pretty unlikely his leg would've been that high if he wasn't.
Does that make it manslaughter, or whatever Bongland's equivalent is? No idea. That's for the lawcels to figure out. But it is a pretty good reason for the Sheffield Steelers to cut the guy from the roster.
Having a dirty player is one thing, but a deadly dirty player? It's just not worth it.

As opposed to intentionally kicking Johnson in the throat? Almost certainly an accident, and shitty skating by Petgrave. He fricks up a check and is going horizontal but scorpion kicks to try and keep his balance while knowing Johnson is to his side.

That's dramaphobic, please can you say that it's clearly intentional?

Petgrave's Bantu genes, already pushing him to a frenzy for being near something as foreign as ice, cause him to mistake Johnson for a liquor store clerk. Eyewitness reports are coming in that Petgrave was heard sucking his teeth and muttering, "dem bix nood gib mo for dat Windrush Scandal neighbor," as he exited the stadium.

As a hockeycel, sometimes you do try to get a dirty hit in when you have a chance. Put your stick out to throw a guy off their edge, slew foot someone when you have a chance, etc., that shit happens. Outright lifting your foot up over someone's waistline at someone? Yeah, you don't do that unless you have an intent to hurt. All jokes and memes aside, I think the dude wanted to kick him in the stomach - itself a dirty shitty play - and went higher and got his neck.
To be an accident, you'd have to be the worst skater on the ice, even for a semi-pro team like this was. You always try to fall forward, not backwards and up.
