Vigilante Justice
Manage episode 389729236 series 3404364
Now boarding... a whole bunch of NHL players. Breaking down the past week's boarding calls - and non-calls: Oilers' Kane on Wild's Brodin, Sabres' Robinson on Canadiens' Barron, Panthers' Cousins on Jackets' Gudbranson -- who decided to avenge the hit by taking the law into his own hands. The Wings' Perron took the same approach, picking up a six-game suspension for a crosscheck to the face after an injury to Larkin.
Should players answer the bell for legal hits? Why does the NHLPA only seem to care about its suspended players, rather than the victims of their crimes?
Todd and Josh break down a pair of penalty shots, including Panthers' Tkachuk vs. Canes' Kochetkov and a Zuccarello shootout goal after a pokecheck. We've also got a Devils' Smith slewfoot, an unsportsmanlike for Preds' Watson, and more.
