my zayne parekh ohl shady facts compendium↓
he was first suspended 2 games after a january 21st game against the kingston frontenacs. apparently the "actions" he was suspended for were spitting on two people including an old teammate of his (mcnamara). this suspension was announced after he had played in the CHL top prospects game, which he would not have been eligible for had it been announced earlier. cue the "parekh favoritism" complaints by his opps. and they were kind of right... probably his most egregious offense
in the memorial cup final against the knights he gets a targeted elbow to the head/chin (sim literally comes right off the bench to run at him, its very funny) and then lies on the ice like he died in a glue trap for a while. this one is pretty understandable honestly but i do think it was probably a bit of a selljob. sim gets ejected and knights get a 5 minute major. and we all know how this one ends
the spearing drama: zayne dangerously hits owen allard in a vulnerable position (video here, just found this for the first time now. what an asshole omg) in a game against the soo greyhounds on october 23rd, 2024 and he was ejected. reports(??) surfaced of him having a fan altercation involving poking them with his stick lmfao... although nothing was ever confirmed and he was cleared of all wrongdoing by the OHL. but i still believe it a little bit.
he was suspended a second time for one game after a crosscheck to the head of someone during a game against the windsor spitfires on november 27th, 2024. mad knights fans in the comments of the suspension tweet kill me but lowkey they were kind of right about zayne/spirit favouritism.
too much other bullshit. an example of his usual assholery sneaky punching someone right after assisting the OTGWG. lmao
