I want Parros' head. A former Goon should not be heading the department of player safety. It should be a former official as a main part of an official's duties is to ensure the safety of all players on the ice. Parros' job was to cave other players' faces in. Big difference.

Looks like there won't be an automatic hearing. Dreger announced the likely hearing for McDavid at something like 5AM. I know it's a Sunday but if we haven't heard anything by now I don't see it happening.

Well at least there is rule 28.1
"If an investigation is requested by a Club or by the League on its own initiative, it must be initiated within twenty-four (24) hours following the completion of the game in which the incident occurred."

Nicholson and Gretzky should be pressuring the (*&$# out of DoPS for a response to this hit.

Yep. They already called them out once. Time to do it again. Make a stink

They also need to convince McDavid to appeal the suspension. The games missed isn’t a big deal, but it being on record is bull**** with everything they let go

The hit by Simmonds was worse, lol. Reading their reason why he won’t be suspended is ****ing embarrassing. Get the **** out Parros you living piece of human trash.

And this is why everyone in Edmonton was mad, because their assessments are total bullshit. Way more dangerous hit yet no hearing or suspension, what a joke

It seems like they only hand out suspensions if the victimized player is seriously injured which is the wrong way to go about things imo

Isles fan here. No way that hit was deserving of 2 games. Clearly not intentional and Leddy was not hurt from the hit. Tom Wilson has done way worse and they let him go without anything half the time.

McDavid was just their "we treat everyone equally" example. Except they don't so it's a joke.

Perry just punched nurse in the head on purpose last night and isn't getting even a hearing.

I'm okay with setting a precedent. 2 games for headshots is fine, but there is zero consistency and it's so frustrating.

The more shit you pull, the less you get for it in this league.

Perry isn’t even getting a phone call reprimand.

This league is such a joke and the fact that a complete goon and plug George Parros is the head of the DoPS is an even bigger joke.

Parros should be fired.

Well Nurse should have dealt with Perry on the spot.

The NHL will not protect players so its time for them to do it themselves

And then Nurse gets suspended for a crap load of games because you can't do that any more.
The NHL is a complete joke. Trying to protect the players themselves fails because there is no consistency and refs have free reign to use discretion on anything, except they won't let the players protect themselves either. Total joke.

Wow, not even a hearing or anything to make it look like they give a damn? Even though the head contact literally only happened because Perry turned around and extended his arm to ensure he'd catch the head? No damn way you can pretend that's any cleaner or less dangerous than what McDavid did. Why even have a Department of Player Safety if you're not going to respond to deliberate forearm shivers to the face?

The guy took boxing lessons so he could better hit people in the head during fights. There is nothing about him that says anything about integrity. So not surprised.

Then you make it worth the games off.

Nurse should feed Perry his chiclets in their next meeting.

Perry would likely do what Lee did. Wrestle with Nurse until the linsemen step-in and then start throwing punches. Lee even tried that careless swing back of his stick over his shoulder at Nurse in the second game because there were no repercussions the first time he did it.

Getzlaf would call a 5 minute intent to injure penalty on Nurse if he fought perry
