Aside from the fact Grabner deserves a 2 game suspension just for wearing those hideous third uni's ..... I tried to put the shoe on the other foot and asked myself what if Gerbe hit Grabner like that?
It's my own opinion but I struggle to see a two game suspension either way.. It's not as if Gerbe was completely upright and Grabner raised his elbow..
I know that Grabner emphasized the hit with his eblow, but I honestly believe that was just natural follow-through you'd see on any body-check..
Honestly, I'm struggling to see why there'd even be a token fine in this situation since Grabner was NOT deliberately targeting Gerbe's head..
Gerbe's head wasn't where it should have been and those speeds Grabner had no time or space to do anything other than what he did.. to repeat my comment about the elbow, anyone who's every delivered more than 1 bodycheck in hockey knows that pretty often you naturally push off with your arm/elbow..
