[Report] Dallas' Garbutt pulls a Lucic, gets fined


Recommended Posts

NEW YORK – Dallas Stars forward Ryan Garbutt has been fined $1,474.36, the maximum allowable under the CBA, for spearing Anaheim Ducks forward Corey Perry during Game 5 of the teams’ First Round Stanley Cup Playoffs series in Anaheim on Friday, April 25, the National Hockey League’s Department of Player Safety announced today.

The incident occurred at 9:11 of the first period. Garbutt was assessed a major penalty for spearing and game misconduct.

As per NHL.com

I guess Perry now knows how it feels to get speared in the groin, a move he pulled on Benn just the other game.

Somehow Lucic didn't get called because refs supposedly missed it. What about the other times Lucic has done it, including during regular season. I don't remember him being fined for any of the previous ones. Did the refs miss those ones too? :rolleyes:

NHL has screwed themselves, they can never suspend guys for this now that they've already put it out there that it's only deserving of a fine.

Unless they bring in someone new to replace Shanahan. The new guy can set new standards, but he'll have to start tough, otherwise we'll have similar issues.

Shanahan isn't in charge anymore ever since he was named President of hockey operations for the Leafs

That's what I meant. I don't think they have a permanent replacement right now, and may look to add one after this year.
