They’re bitching up a storm on r/hockey about how he’s not a repeat offender despite having been suspended previously, breaking Blueger’s jaw and injuring someone else this season.
I swear, anytime someone lays a dirty hit on a Penguin, they just play on the line and aren’t dirty at all! Just old time hockey and they know how to throw hard hits with their elbows that totally aren’t illegal at all.

Probably should have been more, but I get it. Gallagher got five, so this probably makes sense in the eyes of the NHL. Viewed through the eyes of a human being, however, this is a fucking travesty. I feel so bad for the human beings that are hockey players. The league is doing next to nothing to protect them.
Need to flush this prick down the sewer with the likes of Tom Wilson.

I figured he’d get one game. I think I’d prefer to live in a world where that hit gets 3 games but in the current NHL that seemed like a one gamer. I was the league would apply a consistent standard to these and I really don’t know why it’s so hard. I think everybody here See’s these hits and applies a fairly consistent standard to them in their minds when they evaluate them

I’m guessing it’s 3 games as to avoid retaliation when we play the jets again on Saturday. That’s two games for them, but still
