Parros was a failure of an NHLer and even worse in this role, for every team. Hiw he even made it through a round of interviews is bind boggling as he was certainly not qualified from his career. So... how?
Player Discussion Jeremy Lauzon: signed $850k/2rs
- Thread starter DKH
- Start date
The cowards took the easy path.
- defending the overwhelmed official
- match penalty
- Crouse only had a roughing minor on paper
- Lauzon is a no-name player at this point
All the variables in place and the NHL does the bare minimum as usual to claim player safety while not truly giving one shit.

At this point, were past the joke. They're in crooked territory.

With this one game alone we're practically in position for a class action suit. We can also get all sorts of evidence from last year's finals.

2 games? First time offender (unless I missed another incident), match was given, hitee finished the game. Sure. Whatever. 
Can only hope Lauzon laughed and hung up the phone on Parros.
This has little bearing on the Bruins but the overall image by the NHL is the awful part.
Pastrnak, Marchand, Krug, and others have all taken worse hits this season with no suspensions or fines.

Let’s Go Bruins👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Bruins management should - but won’t - come out and disagree with it. Why is it only fans who disagree with the NHL, while front offices and coaches can say squat? Well I guess we know the answer. Can’t wait for more crap and lack of consistency from the league and refs in the playoffs again this year.....

I would love to see Neely or Sweeney speak out about the hypocrisy of this ruling vis-à-vis the Crouse hit on McAvoy.

Literally can't wrap my head around how what Lauzon did was even a match penalty, let alone a 2 game suspension on top of that.
But to then have Crouse make the exact same, if not worse hit, on McAvoy, and get 2 minutes and nothing else?
This league is just so poorly run, it's amazing its where it is.
Parris somehow worse than Campbell and Shannahan.

Because McAvoy didn’t lay on the ice long enough and fake an injury. I’ve been saying for years, the guys need to fake being hurt when they get hit in the head. The NHL doesn’t care about player safety, they care about lawsuits from the perception of not doing enough to stop head injuries.

Lauzon lays a bad, but far from egregious hit:
-Ejected
-Reviewed
-First-time offender
NHL DoPS:
-Two-game suspension
What??

Lauzon , just play your game. Don’t let them scare you off. Just pound people anyway.

haha! I called it! And my reasoning was the league is a total joke! And bias. Perfect.
Id accept this if Crouse got the same. But to have only 2min and the league not even care is insanity. Parros is as bad on this stage as he was on the ice.

Someone with extremely limited knowledge of hockey and of limited cognitive ability could do a better job than the cretinous clowns currently working in DoPS. Not joking whatsoever. Any moron can watch the two hits yesterday, analyze them based on the rules, and come up with a better decision than the one DoPS settled on. No wonder virtually every fan base is baffled by the continuing spinning wheel of justice. It's a disgrace and an embarrassment.

Neely = HOF
Such a stupid ruling.
Parros is a dud.
Fire this loser yesterday.
What is JJ doing? Speak up and get this bum fired.

Exactly, the punishment seems more a function of the reaction of the targeted player than the hit itself. The hit was not totally unobjectionable, but Stepan wasn't injured and stayed in the game. If he had shrugged it off rather than writhing in pain for a minute, Lauzon might not have gotten even two minutes.
We need to hack the NHL site and replace the Lauzon footage with the Crouse footage....then 2 games makes sense....oy

I still don't even understand the rationale behind this suspension. What was illegal about this hit? Initial contact was in the chest. There was some head contact but it was incidental and mostly the result of the height difference. I thought the worst of it for Stepan was his head hitting the glass, but that doesn't make it illegal. And then Stepan was clutching his chest/shoulder when he was down. Just so weird to me that he even got the match penalty. I really thought when they reviewed it they'd give him 2 minutes. the fact that they gave him 2 additional games is absurd even if you completely ignore the Crouse elbow from the same game.
Anyway, I hope this kid doesn't change a thing about the way he plays because of this. Sadly in today's NHL sometimes the way to win a playoff series is to trade a couple games for an opposing player (f*** you Sundquist)
