that said... if he misses games.. yes... such is the world of bullshit justice

punish the result, not the incident itself or the intent



well.. except for things like murder, of course, then you should definitely punish the result based on intent levels

I like Mickey's comments as he watches more replays:

"He never touched him"
"He never touches him"
"He barely shoved him"

I watched with no sound to make sure there is no homerific announcer bias... But I pretty much said the same things to myself.

He did what he had to do. All the scoring was being done by anybody named Nick (Nik)!!!!:bowl:

He didn't really even touch him... Shouldn't get any additional punishment.

Guy just lost an edge. Zetterberg definitely touched him (not sure why the announcers keep saying that, haha), but it was really just unfortunate.

In my opinion it was a double minor because Nikitin's back was always to Hank and he pushed him. Very much a boarding call. Should it be a suspension? Not for Zetterberg. He doesn't do that kind of thing. If it was Ott or Cooke, yes.

Will it be? Based on some of the other shit that's been suspended before? Probably.

Based on the fact he's a Wing? No. :D

I think it's obvious that Zetterberg used the Force to hurdle Nikita into the boards.
