SPIN. THAT. WHEEEEEEEEEEEEL
I’m happy it was looked at, but at least 1 game would have been better…
I’ve been watching and playing hockey my whole life. I played at a juror level and now I coach my son’s team. With that said I have no idea what most of the nhl rules are. They change with the wind.
Anything and everything done against a Leaf is a slap on the wrist.
But if a Leaf sneezes, 25 to life.
More than I thought, honestly.
Acciari skates headfirst into a check, and the other guy gets 3 games.
Marchment blindsides McCabe and gets $5000.
Remember this from last night, when asked what the refs said? *”They thought it was a good hit,” Keefe said*
What a great league.
I’m just shocked they even looked at it.
Keeping the family tradition of being a dirtbag alive
When was the last time a player was suspended for a dirty hit on a leaf player?
Well it’s something?
Its not suspension-worthy, but 5000 is so low
It’s something. Helps enforce the notion that the Refs don’t know what the fuck they are doing.
He can only be suspended if an on-ice decision was made… penalty/misconduct, etc.
A fine is all that is allowed for the remainder of any player discipline, which can only be a maximum of 50% of 1 day’s salary or $10k, whichever is lower. George Parros cannot suspend a player not given on-ice discipline, its not allowed under the CBA
But according to the NHL subreddit it was a clean hit and leafs fans are overreacting /s
Fined a whole nickle
It’s not suspension worthy. It was a penalty. The refs are the ones who should be fined the 5K.
When was the last time someone actually got suspended for something they did to a leafs player?
Would love a 3rd party to come in and analyze different aspects of the NHLs biases from player safety , to refereeing , to commissioner oversight and CBA
It is all so obviously slanted against the leafs.
I’m glad he got a slap on the wrist. That’ll teach him.
I hope the referees also get dinged somehow when the league needs to take DoPS action AND the referees didn’t even call a penalty.
I’m tired
just fell to my knees in a forest; saw sergachev
