Nazem Kadri hit was mistake but let’s be real. An 8 game suspension in the playoffs is absurd. We see many other players including past offenders receive much lesser punishment for the same conduct all the time. I wonder what difference is? Hmm Thinking face.

Akim trying to stay relevant still by insinuating something.

Bednar made a great point about repeat pffenders only counting within 18 months. Wilsons was way worse

Mtl can't get any offensive zone time, making Toronto look like a good defensive team out there.
Toffoli is invisible.

It's crazy that the announcers keep talking about Cole Caufield as their only hope to get shots on net.

He may have a point.
- Marwood

What point would that be?

That Kadri has been suspended now 2 more times than Wilson has. The last time Wilson hit someone in the head like that he got 20 games. Kadri gets 8.

The league told The Denver Post that the 18-month clock applies only to fines, not suspensions

Montreal is boring & have been for many years. MB is safe til another franco is found.
Not likely at that either.

Rome gets 5 for a 1st offender in a different time. Today’s suspensions are joke overall.

Not even close. Wilson dropped someone who engaged him. Kadri went shoulder to head in an open ice hit.

I'm fine with the 8 games that Kadri got. I think DoPs got it right.

Maybe Bednar should learn the rules.

I was guessing 5... 8 seems heavy for how much they've given out all year, but I have no problem with 8 being the standard in that situation. We just all know it's not.

Slight deflection, 3rd goal of the series. For those keeping track at home that's 1 more than JV has for his career. Oh wait, aren't you JV's biggest fan?
- golfingsince

that's so way off even your lead sommelier would know better; or, are you taking up cheese mongering too? Too bad MG's scouts didn't have Ehlers rated higher. But you know some of us move on.

Interesting that applies only to fines. You would think Wilson would be suspended indefinitely then

Each case is different, hard to have a standard. Kadri has now been suspended 7 times. That's more than Wilson has.

Predatory hits...

Marty McSorley
Raffi Torres
Duncan Keith
Kadri

Some happen cuz players are stupid others cuz the victim is stupid.

Because he is even more of a repeat offender, isn’t his suspension history on your notepad

Hey Nuck4U, you need to speak in english. Enough of the riddles.

Does Nylander have 3 goals this series? Does JV have 2 in his career? Are you not the guy that's been defending JV for years?

I'm not sure why you decided to go after Nylander for scoring a 3rd goal this series. I just pointed out he was my guy, just like Nucker and DTC had Ehlers.

Your guy is on house arrest.

I didn't know I could pick a player I wanted back then.

I knew they were picking Virtanen though. All I cared about was that they don't draft MDC.

I just don't get how you don't think there's intent to injure in Wilson. There was with kadri, for sure. But 8 playoff games?! Seems bery light woth one and very heavy with another. Just be consistent!

JV was a reactionary pick. It was also a stupid pick. Why not pick the best players available instead of an 18!year old that profiles your biggest need.
