Looks more like he punches his shoulder/upper chest. A good case for a roughing penalty, not sure it’s suspension worthy. However, it should be noted, Subban is both a cowardly and dirty player at times.

 

[Bleeker]

Not the first time i see him doing that. Usually its more subtle and it pass as a bodycheck but yeah no ..this isnt right

 

[LeafShark]

Give him a couple of games.

 

[Calgareee]

Eh.... it’s debatable if that’s a roughing/interference penalty but definitely not suspension worthy imo.

 

[tarheelhockey]

Subban went absolutely ballistic at the refs about this call. Then went ballistic again in the 3rd, yelling at Ferland in the penalty box until the refs had to stop everything and go tell him to sit down.

He was weirdly unhinged for a preseason game.

Holy **** are fans soft.

I really hope this was satirical.

 

[Bouboumaster]

Subban is my favorite player in the league right now, but he was right off his goddamn mind today.

 

[CantLoseWithMatthews]

I am absolutely not a fan of Subban's on ice antics, but this is nothing

Looks like a forearm to the chest/ribs.

 

[Volica]

Not losing sleep over this one.

 

[Filthy Dangles]

Damn the game is getting soft

That's just a fancy hit.

 

[MMC]

That's nothing compared to this punch from him

 

[JoVel]

This is nothing... Had he punched him in the head, then I'd understand the complaining.

 

[hector morrison]

The game is gettin 'softer...Aho should of made Subban answer the bell for that cheap shot. If he isn't the type to engage, then a team mate should of made him answer the bell or taken note, at least for future meetings.
For those rating Subbans action as 'not so bad' ,let me ask...do you want more of this in the game or less of this in the game? This is the type of thing that leads to escalation of dirty 'tit for tat' 'type play.

 

[Seider Town]

Only about a 3 on the classless Subbans chart.

 

[Sugi21]

In football it’s called a “stiff arm”

 

[Quarter]

76, Nashville: two minutes for roughing.

 

[Esteban Tornado]

It's similar to this hit, but Subban was at a different angle.

 

[SI90]

He thought he had the puck. It was more of a push than a punch.

 

[Beville]

Yeah, 2 minutes roughing for a punch to the chest.

Nothing else really needed, if PK kicks off give him the 10 for unsportsmanlike/abuse of official.

 

[WJCJ]

That looks like he threw his forearm into the guy who had the puck in an attempt to separate the player from the puck. I'm not sure there is any penalty there at all.
