So Kadri got 8 games. That's...a lot. I don't even really mind it on the surface, and I know his history isn't on his side.
My issue with it is just why the NHL is so damn inconsistent with it. It's still baffling to me that Wilson can slam a guy down to the ice and punch him in the side of the head and only get fined. Either protect player's heads or don't.

But whatever.
Exactly, that is why it still happens , you get more if the guy is injured , what Wilson did is just as bad as Bertuzzi but guy didn’t break his neck so it’s all good , that is why you will always have guys like Wilson in the league . [Reply]

I haven't looked to see if the Kucherov slash is getting a hearing, but interested in what the league does there.
Kadri's a moron, and a repeat moron, but compare the two and at least he was being a moron in the slot on a scoring chance.
If they want to set an example for players to not intentionally hurt others, that slash is a great one. [Reply]
Camped all weekend and recorded a lot of hockey... and of course the Preds/Canes had multiple OTs both days and I ended up with the 3rd period Friday night and today. :-):-)
Surprised to see the Blues were so lifeless late in today's game... they really didn't seem to care about tying the game. For a team that's won a Cup recently, the difference in energy level was a bit shocking. [Reply]
