There's been a lot of discussion here about the death of Adam Johnson. Sheffield Steelers player Matt Petgrave has been arrested on suspicion of manslaughter after Johnson was killed when his neck was slashed with a skate blade following an on-ice collision.
Lots of people have been calling for Petgrave's head and claiming he intentionally kicked Johnson. In this sub, there has been a clear divide between people who understand what can happen during on-ice collisions and those who do not.
Hopefully people who have been following this story will read this and cooler heads will prevail:

Adam Johnson is a hockey player who was killed recently from a neck injury. During a collision during a game in England, Matt Petgrave's skate hit Johnson in the neck, causing him to bleed to death and later die. There will be a game that will be played in honor of Johnson:
However, where I'm confused is why there are manslaughter charges being brought against another man (the one who presumably crashed into Petgrave, causing his skate to fly into Johnson's neck). This man, who hasn't been indentified, was arrested and released on bond. He is facing manslaughter charges. I am confused because I was under the impression that during professional sports, there is a release of liability. For example, if a pitcher in the MLB hits a player (unintentionally) in the head, and the batter later dies, the pitcher would not be charged with manslaughter.
I'm not saying there should or shouldn't be charges. I'm just confused as to why the case is playing out like it is. It seems like if Petgrave's skate is what led to the actual fatal injury, he would be the one facing manslaughter charges.
I'm from the US, where manslaughter is loosely defined as "killing without malice." So it could be anything from a simple accident to killing someone by drunk driving. This happened in the UK, so what is and isn't manslaughter might be different.

What the actual fuck?!
For those who don't know, recently hockey player Adam Johnson was killed during a hockey game when his opponent Matt Petgrave allegedly lost his balance and kicked Adam's neck. I am not here to discuss whether it was really an accident. But this ties into Draymond and we clearly know his actions aren't accidents
We have Draymond, who literally knowingly stomped Sabonis and choked Gobert (didn't let go and tried with his full force until he was forced to let go). That is two different events that could have went incredibly south. These players are human and their well-being is more important than any basketball game. Just because they did actions that Draymond himself doesn't approve of doesn't mean his actions should in any way shape or form be excused
It is literally criminal to allow a monster whose primary goal is to seriously hurt people he doesn't like take part in the court.
5 game suspension is a joke. Do they really think someone who has more than 10 incidents with 2 of them being life-threatening will suddenly get better after 5 game suspension? Funnily enough his next game will be against our Kings and Sabonis. This is corruption beyond belief. You would say it is overexaggerated if it was a movie script
