Wow- this was a shocking result. Columbus looks like a juggernaut since the 3rd period of Game 1.

Tampa's got to do something to get this under control.

CBJ! Missed the game though, as I was at the Cincinnati Cyclones ECHL Playoff win over the K Wings tonight. The Cyclones won 7-4.

By the way, Alexander Wennberg's GF is a smoke show.

Looks like it could go either way. Happened in the final 5:00 of the game, the hit player was largely defenseless and it was an unnecessary and unavoidable check.

But because the NHL's rules on supplemental discipline are so vague, I'm going to guess nothing happens here. Nutivaara is a not a marquee player and the NHL won't want to suspend, even for one game, the Art Ross trophy / probable Hart Memorial trophy winner

Plus Nutivaara got right back up and wasn't hurt at all. Same with Girardi's blindside hit on Dubinsky. League really need to not consider outcome so heavily. It was by sheer luck alone that Nutivaara wasn't hurt.

I agree completely. If supplemental discipline is about eliminating dangerous hits from the game, then outcome isn’t important. Same with “repeat offender” status factoring into punishments. This system seems more like placating angry fans & teams.
