kinot-1 Posted April 20, 2016 Report Share Posted April 20, 2016 Blackhawks' Andrew Shaw could face discipline for possible homophobic slur. "In 2011, cameras appeared to capture Flyers forward Wayne Simmonds shouting the same homophobic slur at the New York Rangers’ Sean Avery during a game. Simmonds later denied using the slur, and the NHL had no proof for which to discipline. “Flyers player Wayne Simmonds has expressly denied using the homophobic slur he is alleged to have said,” NHL senior vice president of hockey operations Colin Campbell said in a statement. “Additionally, none of the on-ice officials close to the altercation in question heard any inappropriate slurs uttered by either of the primary antagonists. In light of this, we are unable at this time to take any disciplinary action with respect to last night's events.” Bold is mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest habs1952 Posted April 21, 2016 Report Share Posted April 21, 2016 IMO, the 'hit' on Laughton from Carlsson warranted a penalty. I don't think it was a 'hit' at all, more like a push when a player was in a vulnerable position close to the boards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fnveenie Posted April 21, 2016 Report Share Posted April 21, 2016 When Subban scored that goal from center ice against Columbus earlier this year, Dubinsky called him the same word as Shaw used. And Subban got a penalty for pushing him. Nobody did anything about Dubinsky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

habs_93 Posted May 2, 2016 Report Share Posted May 2, 2016 3 games. Justified IMO. I would almost always tack an extra game or two (or more) on what the NHL hands out, but I think it's fine, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest habs1952 Posted May 3, 2016 Report Share Posted May 3, 2016 I think the league, during the playoffs, has to shoulder some of the blame. The referees put away their whistles which results in a marked increase in intensity between teams. Players have crossed the line because they've been allowed to unless the league has issued a new rule book for the playoffs I'm not aware of.
