Chiarot's reckless play on Tavares ended in an injury, similar to Scheifele's reckless play on Evans.
Somehow Chiarot got no suspension and Scheifele 4 games.
What a joke.
I say hire a referee who NEVER worked A game in the NHL become the next head of DOPS. Let them study the rules in the off season, then call the infractions. - Darksyde
Paul Stewart would be good. He seems fair and consistent in his comments always

still disgusted by the hit and by Paul Maurice's statements....I understand his defense of his players, but clearly this was a predatory hit with a clear intent to injure...mission accomplished. Yes a step in the right direction by the NHL...but...but...but...but...we have a young 25 year old kid who is injured because of a clear intent to injure....Scheifele got off easy....the predatory hit warranted a very severe suspension that continued on to next season...Scheifele just may have killed Evans career with his stupid pre meditated decision.

Oh great, you've decided to spew your nonsense outside the Leafs thread now.

It was an awful hit but i’ll admit I’m pleasantly surprised with 4 games considering the DoPS track record. 4 games, win the series and move on. Scheifele will now forever be booed by 21 000 people every time he touches the puck when he plays in Montréal, welcome to the Chara treatment.
I don't care who you hope for or how you feel about suspension. Just stop thinking about who the teams and players were, take your heart out of this. Forget about Tom Wilson and John Taveras. This was an ugly hit and it was an illegal play; there had to be a suspension. If you look at what's fair one might ask how long will the victim, Evans be out compared to Scheifele (the agressor).
Nope, Chara is the only one who has it every time he touches the puck since the 2011 incident. We made an exception when he played his 1500th game and gave him an ovation because you got to respect that but we went right back to booing lol - Karine Hains

(frank) Paul Maurice, especially because after female doging and crying when Tkachuk hit Scheifele last summer, he has the balls to call this a clean hit. I get that you don't throw your player under the bus, but there are other ways he could have went by that question.

If Chiarot murdered a guy at a bar, Ducharme would say that it was a clean murder and that's bars.
