This stuff will continue until either the league starts handing out serious suspensions or a player is arrested for assault.
Remember that the NHL basically counts playoff games as 2-3 times the value of a regular season game. The suspension might be shorter than you think.2 games is not enough. 5 should be the minimum, first offender or not
If it was reg season, I’d give him 10 as a first offender.Remember that the NHL basically counts playoff games as 2-3 times the value of a regular season game. The suspension might be shorter than you think.
Hopefully they throw the book at him.
That might be the worst hit I’ve ever seen.
The fact that they gave him a charging major opens the door for an easy suspension, but the wheel of justice hands out what the wheel of justice likes.This really is going to put the NHL in a pretty tough spot. The hit was completely unnecessary and shouldn’t have been made but... I don’t know where it falls in the rule book as a violation.
Parros is shitting himself right now.
In a pre-season game, too.I still think Downie’s was the wildest. Guy was almost parallel to the ice even before contact.
Parros is part of the problem. See Wilson, TomThis really is going to put the NHL in a pretty tough spot. The hit was completely unnecessary and shouldn’t have been made but... I don’t know where it falls in the rule book as a violation.

Well that’s part of the reason he’s shitting himself. Spotlight was put on him and the league.Parros is part of the problem. See Wilson, Tom
Hits like that is what’s wrong with the NHL in a nutshell. You throw a hit like that 20 years ago, a Donald Brashear or Tony Twist or whatnot is going to pound the shit out of someone on your team. What’s the point of all but eliminating fighting if it leads to shit like this and the Tom Wilson’s of the world?
The NHL sucks
But he was skating back hard trying to stop a goal too
Fair but that was two players moving and this one was one player moving and the other “stopped.”I still think Downie’s was the wildest. Guy was almost parallel to the ice even before contact.
Georges Laraque offered to suit up to take on Wilson.He might escape severe punishment from Parros but Montreal are not the smurfs of old.
That defense core with Chariot, Weber, Edmundson and Petry all have size - and the Jets love to dump that puck in.
Scheifele will face the music at some point.
Or until some poor kid is killed. The league needs to wake up now.This stuff will continue until either the league starts handing out serious suspensions or a player is arrested for assault.
