habs_93 Posted October 16, 2015 Report Share Posted October 16, 2015 This is the kind of trash they like in Tampa. Now that it's being done to someone other than us, maybe the NHL will have to take notice and do something about it: http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/2015/10/15/9547993/jamie-benn-hit-victor-hedman-nikita-nesterov-hit-stars-lightning Nesterov should clearly be suspended.

habs_93 Posted October 16, 2015 Report Share Posted October 16, 2015 It's also worth noting that the hit on Hedman was 100% clean. Nothing wrong with it, not even a penalty. The Lightning went out and put a guy in the hospital for a clean hit. Cooper should get fined as well, but he won't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest habs1952 Posted October 17, 2015 Report Share Posted October 17, 2015 The NHL is basically condoning the violence/dirty plays. Since it appears they can't punish offenders because of the CBA they should start fining teams a hefty amount for their players dirty deeds. Personally, I think the league is just digging themselves a bigger hole when it comes to the pending concussion lawsuit. They're basically showing they don't care about player safety.
