I'm glad they finally decided to throw the book at him. It was a really bad play. -

If it was a first offender, sure I could see that, but this is a guy who has already been disciplined like 3-4 other times, last time was in the playoffs where he broke a guy's jaw.
That hit has no place in the modern NHL. Puck's gone. There's no advantage to be gained by hitting him in that position.Comment
