Player Discussion Anthony DeAngelo (Mod warning in OP and post 197. READ IT)

I just watched the incident in question. Ref was pushing/pulling him away from a postgame scrum, he tried to break the ref's grip. It's undoubtedly a penalty and suspension, but let's not go overboard with the judgments here.

Coyotes' DeAngelo Suspended 3 Games For Abuse of Officials

Dennis Wideman crosschecking a linesman in the back is abuse of an official. What DeAngelo did is barely anything and isn't even particularly uncommon during scrum situations.

Agreed. It's not as if he took a swing at a referee.
