Gudas to have hearing for Slash/High Stick on Kucherov [upd. two-game suspension]

[Tripod]

This is Gudas in a nutshell. Has been arguably the Flyers most consistent D this year, and then does something dumb which takes away all the good.

Guess he didn't want to be traded.

 

[Whaleafs]

Trade him to Toronto to teach him a lesson

 

[tny760]

kucherov kinda asked for that by pulling his stick so far back but it's a really dumb thing to do by gudas as well

probably doesn't deserve anything more than 2 minutes but gudas dug his own grave with the perrault slash

 

[koyvoo]

Word is he’ll get 2 games

 

[Saitama]

It's doesn't even make his top 50 of worst things he's done but I still think he should get a game.

And by a game, I mean 1 more game in the NHL before he's forcibly retired. He's never going to learn, so why bother keeping him around until he does something to end someone's career?

 

[Corvidae]

I don't know - Gudas can cross the line at times, but normally with hits, not stickwork. I'm inclined to believe it was either an accident or a snap decision he regretted immediately. I'm also willing to entertain the possibility it was in retaliation for something Kucherov did - boy is known for

K, who's this?

Like that pos Shrek had? And don't even start with history, Malkin just gets away with everything he does.

I know, right? Zero consequences for his actions. The refs should have given him 5 and a game, followed by a suspension. But obviously they didn't because Malkin gets away with everything.

 

[Stormbreaker]

Never go full Gudas.

 

[Emerz]

How does he keep lumber jacking people in the back of the head? Like of all the things to get a reputation for lmfao

 

[The Macho King]

This is stupid. This hit was way worse than Gudas' slash.

 

[nothingbeatshockey]

Gudas doesn't get any benefit of the doubt - dumb? reckless? rash? or just Gudas? Shook my Crazy 8 ball and it says DoPS gives him 2-3 games.

 

[God King Fudge]

Gudas suspended 2 games. Hagg fined max amount for elbow.

 

[Marc the Habs Fan]

It's not a NHL season unless Gudas gets suspended at least once.

 

[Kamiccolo]

Wheel of justice. Someone decides to wack the leading NHL scorer in the back of the head like a coward and the NHL gives them two games. Stand up for your damn stars NHL.

 

[Mitts]

"Radko see head, Radko swing stick at head, Radko mad"

 

[Thread The Needle]

There's an epidemic of high stickers!

 

[mr figgles]

2 games is fair. No intent to injure, but it was still stupid.

 

[God King Fudge]

Two games might even be a bit much for me.

Really puzzling decision by Gudas, though.

uhh

it wasn't that bad. you want him to get 20 games for a slash?

It doesn't work that way.. and it probably never should

It was a love tap.

To the head. Say that again, but add "to the head" to the end. 20 games? Nah, but you can see that the part of the body he slashed is important, right? You do see that, right?

Two games for this is a joke if Malkin only got 1 game for a baseball swing.

I would say the NHL is showing that being a star certainly matters.

 

[Hockey4Lyfe]

I will await all of the Flyers fans that called for Malkins head to do the same for Gudas.

Oh that’s not how this works now that their own player pulled be same scum move?

Gudas got suspended. He deserved it.

Thank you, next.
