So if Wiz and Murray aren't back by Friday then D looks like:
Tyutin-Savard
Erixon-Prout
St. Denis- ???

No, this league is ridiculous. Who knows how long Anisimov will be out for a blatant elbow to the head and no punishment given at all. Then Johnson gets three days for what he did ???? Until there is some consistency other than "if a Jacket does it he gets called and if it is done to a jacket there is no harm", no punishment is deserved. I am really sick of this league's so-called (non)disciplinary system.
Will Weber is injured in SPR btw.

Anisimov was not hit in the head with a direct blow like Johnson did. He hit his head on the ice. Completely different
I'm looking at it like this: Jack could use a few games off to regroup. And hopefully this is his Olympic snub of this year and he comes back playing like we know he can. (Yes it's better to have a self-motivater but sometimes people need a little kick in the ass).
When it rains...
Hockey gods sure seem to be trying to tell us something.
Not anymore. Youre allowed to admire your pass without having to worry about getting plowed when you dont have the puck, thats where the hit becomes illegal. Add ontop of it being a blind side hit, I knew it would be at least a hearing. In the old days it would have been a legal hit, but you cant do it now a days.
