Just call us goons from now on

NHL discipline never ceases to amaze me. How a player with zero prior history can get 3 games for that is astonishing

 

[the_fan]

Oh well, it's not like Barrie was doing much anyway

 

[Alex Jones]

Nothing for EJ??? I'll take it but it's dumb.

 

[Avsboy]

Despres is made of glass.

 

[Alex Jones]

Oh well, it's not like Barrie was doing much anyway

He looked good last night.

 

[Drij]

didn't seem that bad of a hit.

 

[TheStranger]

Jesus christ that's awful

 

[raistlin76]

I'm ok with three if they start to punish Dustin Brown and Milan Lucic for all their dirty plays.

 

[Avalanche]

Can't do anything about it now.

Hopefully this will be a kick in the ass and Barrie comes back guns blazing

 

[Hans Landaskog]

Well, here is Gormley's chance to get in the lineup and secure a spot. Could be a blessing in disguise.

 

[Avsboy]

The brightside: Newport has less leverage

 

[AnimalMother73]

Hope Gormely gets in

 

[the_fan]

On a bright side it will give Gormley a chance for 3 games

 

[The Kingslayer]

On a bright side it will give Gormley a chance for 3 games

Too bad Brad stuart will play lol

Ya I hope so, but I'm not sure how to slot him in since we're losing a RD and Gormley plays left.

 

[agentblack]

Ugh now we get Brad Stuart for tree games

 

[JLo217]

Gotta say 3 games is probably dead on if they were good at being consistent with this stuff. Based on calls in the past this should maybe be a game or a fine.

We all know a clone of this hit will go completely unpunished at some point this season.

 

[ColoradoSportsFan]

I was expecting 1. So yeah, 3 seems high.

 

[Frenchy]

What's done is done , but 3 games for someone who had no prior... idk

 

[landy92mack29]

Should only be 1 compared to how bad that hit on a stars(I think) player that only got 2 games and was much worse.

 

[falconski]

looks like Russo's friend got a say, meh at least it was early season when Barrie isn't good

 

[BoxOfChocolates]

A game or two too much but whatever

 

[Cypher]

3 games for that?

I thought the Johnson hit was worst, and he got nothing?

Oh well, rather have Barrie out than Johnson, so jokes on you NHL.
