McNabb should be suspended

[The List Of Jericho]

A clear knee on knee hit on Andreas Johnsson and then started laughing about it in the penalty box to boot. Should have been a game misconduct.

Video proof or it didn’t happen.

That's a game or two to me. Clearly has the left leg extended out.

 

[Weast]

Guy is a piece of garbage.

Heres him laughing after.

[WilliamNylander]

Guessing 3-4 games.

What a dirty POS.

 

[Pens x]

Yep, that was a scum bag play. 2 game suspension incoming.

 

[rosscow]

Will be 0 games but a very cheap play.

 

[Colt.45Orr]

I don't watch a ton of Vegas, but from what I have seen, he is a dirty, reckless player.

 

[Morlu]

Easily getting a few games for that.

Zero games.

Reasoning:
No intent to injure.
Smiling in the penalty box without more context is misleading information (he could've been laughing because a teammate skated by, who knows).

There’s very rarely intentional hits to the head or knee on knees. They’re the result of recklessness and stupidity usually. This would qualify as both reckless and stupid. He also clearly visibly saw the damage he caused as Johnsson spent considerable time down on the ice before being carried to the back.

How many guys intend to go out their and injure guys? Give your head a shake

Won't be anything. However, don't like the way McNabb plays at all. Needlessly reckless player.

There was intent to injury. Prove me wrong. It was a dirty ass play regardless.

For sure... McNabb should sit for a few.

 

[HarrisonFord]

I think it’s a game

 

[aufheben]

Probably a game if they look at it. What is he laughing about?

That's not how it works.

However, the NHL suspends for recklessness regardless of intent. It's still potentially a suspension.

I think it deserves a game just because the stupid refs didn't kick him out.

Dirtbag play.

My point is....how do you determine intent? I mean he stuck his knee out and only made contact with the knee.

 

[TheDawnOfANewTage]

Shoulda just swung his stick at his head, only get 1 game for that.

 

[Paris in Flames]

Should sit a few games. Nothing crazy but definitely needs to be punished.

I agree. That's probably exhibit A for why the NHL suspends based on recklessness instead of intent.

Worth pointing out that it's not knee-on-knee, it's knee on thigh, but it's still dangerous/reckless, and Johnsson's confirmed out for the night.

Charlie horse/groin are both possibilities, and the way Johnsson went off the ice, I'm betting it's not just a mild strain.

I again feel the need to call out the refs on this...how the f*** is that 2 minutes?
