Not surprised Hartley got dinged, if he puts Backlund out with McGrattan and Westgarth on the wings, maybe he gets nothing. As soon as Westgarth entered the face-off circle, the jig was up.

Really can't make a case against Hartley because it's all assumption. The reason I make assumption is based on his comments that "they were playing well". I find it hilarious that the NHL takes this more seriously than what players actually do.

I just got faxed the Flames starting lineup in San Jose against the Sharks tonight, McGrattan and Westgarth are there again tonight.

Did colin campbell say torts actions were an embarrassment to the league with a straight face?

156,000 in lost salary is light?

 

[jstewismybastardson]

Could be wrong on the calc ... Not sure if salary is based on a 195 day season

If its based on a calendar year its just over 80000 in lost salary

5 days for "The Incident"
10 days for general douchebaggedness

Seems aboot right

Just to be clear, he's not being paid for 15 days, correct - not being fined anything?

It makes a difference when it comes to tax time - trust me, I'm an accountant*

Honestly I agree to an extent - they probably could have just suspended him until after the Olympic Break since he'll be back with a week(or just less than that) left before the Olympic Break

Lost salary. Not a fine

156k not in his jeans is 156k not in his jeans. He skirts some taxation regardless by living in point roberts washington ... What other tax implications r there?? Is a fine a deduction? Lol
