When you account for the fact that the league is run by incompetents, just be glad it’s not worse
Anyone got the clip? On holiday right now and missed last game
I don't have a problem with the suspension, but the lack of anything for Grundle or Rutta is lame as hell. Unsurprising but lame
Idk Eichel's 2 game suspension for beating a guy to the puck was pretty bad all he did was brace for impact and the dude ran head first into him.Probably my favorite suspension since they threw the book at Risto (who also had a clean record) FOR A HIP CHECK.
We eat all the shit the league can shovel
McDavid already had a 2-game suspension for something less.Called it in the game day thread. Seemed like a 3 game penalty.
If it was someone like Ovechkin or McDavid the NHL would have apologized for penalizing them.
I used to do some work for the NHL. granted this was some time ago and things might have changed, but NHL admin positions were at the time filled with relatives, childhood friends and “positions of favor.” They didn’t often hire outside the circle. Again this was some time ago so things may have changed. I myself was only contracted but got the gig from a buddy.Why does this league prove over and over how nonsensical their decision making is? No shame or attempt to hide their incompetence
How many games did Crosby get for shattering a guys finger?McDavid already had a 2-game suspension for something less.
Or checking ROR's jewels.How many games did Crosby get for shattering a guys finger?

Frankly the Sabres should be two handing the pens in the knees all night tonight
How is that a game worse than what Matthews did last year?
The day someone cup checks Sid or chops off the tip of one of his fingers will be an interesting reckoning. That will not be tonight methinks.
The NHL consistently gives us a more harsh suspension compared to the rest of the league. It’s f***ing ridiculous.

And a point free from league w 4 min minor , w nothing for guentzel the turd field hockey girl , for two egregious infractionsJust in case some people still don’t believe there’s a bias against us.
Here we have a player with no history, caught in a battle the refs leave unchecked after blowing a call the other way…and he gets three times the suspension a Leaf gets for taking a baseball swing with his stick to a head TWO DAYS AGO
