Total predatory hit to the head. Leaves his feet. 10 games minimum.

I'd love to know what he said to the other Avalanche players that prevented them from trying to take his head off.

Doesn’t look fully intentional, probably going for a big hit and missed. Deserves a suspension, 3 games seems a bit light though.

Not intentional.... He put the elbow out and jumped at the last second to mask it. He meant it and should get at least 10 games, if not more. These are the plays that cause concussions, not so much from the hit but bouncing his head off the ice after being KO’ed.

YOU'VE GOTTA BE KIDDING !!

Granted, I'm a Jackets fan, but considering the DoPS, gave historical goon Lucic 2 GAMES for sucker punching Sherwood (Jackets player), 3 games for Foligno (who has no previous incidents) is egregious.

Another demonstration of the idiocy, and inconsistence of the NHL dopes, sorry DoPS.

I guess they didn't have the balls to mete out the appropriate punishment to Lucic.

Agreed. The fact it wasn't an in person hearing is insane to me.

Three games for a flying elbow to the head?

I think the DoPS heard what happened and just assumed it was Marchand again, because this is way too light for anyone else.
