Green Building Posted December 16, 2016 Share Posted December 16, 2016 Seems about right. Totally reckless play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where's Wellwood Posted December 16, 2016 Share Posted December 16, 2016 Edler got 5. This was worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Green Building Posted December 16, 2016 Share Posted December 16, 2016 9 minutes ago, Where's Wellwood said: Edler got 5. This was worse. Yeah, well, at least they suspended him anyways. Maybe they bought Eakin's story about how he was trying to get out of the way by blasting right through him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brad Marchand Posted December 17, 2016 Share Posted December 17, 2016 1 hour ago, Where's Wellwood said: Edler got 5. This was worse. His suspension for hitting Mike Smith was actually only two games: http://www.vancouversun.com/sports/canucks+alex+edler+slapped+with+game+suspension+coyotes+goalie+mike+smith/8137746/story.html Andrew Shaw got 3 playoff games for hitting Smith and somehow this is only one regular season game more.

Toni Zamboni Posted December 17, 2016 Share Posted December 17, 2016 should have been 8 games, so 4 seems about right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hlinkas wrister Posted December 17, 2016 Share Posted December 17, 2016 Gotta love that push back by the blueshirts, reminded me of the Canucks never making people pay for cheap shots on the twins. Is that an AV coaching thing to never take a retaliation penalty? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fanuck Posted December 17, 2016 Share Posted December 17, 2016 For once at least this suspension is in the right ball park, if not a couple games on the low side. I've always thought HL was a bit of an embellisher, but this was legit - one of those wtf were you thinking Cody instances? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of the malicious plays that aren't executed by someone named Matt Cooke, Raffi Torres or Sean Avery seem to be fairly under-disciplined.

Drakrami Posted December 17, 2016 Share Posted December 17, 2016 4 games for a blatant offense like this... If the league wants to make a joke of itself... they are really not trying to cover it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mustapha Posted December 17, 2016 Share Posted December 17, 2016 Wait....so people get suspended for hits to the head? Must be a rule where suspension is waived if the player that is hurt has the last name 'Sedin'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
