Quinn Hughes 5 min major for hit on Josh Norris

[Hierso]

Meanwhile, the Sens came away with a powerplay on this:

The hit was obviously a bad one, but it's hard to argue about who instigated the fight even if i feel like the calls on who started it is a coin-toss sometimes.

2 minutes for Hughes and 2 minutes for Norris for the embellishment

lol look at his right skate.. catches a groove on the ice

would have stumbled even without a contact

 

[MCR74]

The Sens needed all the help they could get last night.

 

[Bard Marchand]

Absolute goon. Banish him to the cave!

 

[Kaners PPGs]

When do we hear Friedman defend the league on this one?

 

[Breeze 44]

No dog in this fight but that being a 5 AND a game isreally bad..almost
laughable...

 

[Sigh]

Meanwhile, the Sens came away with a powerplay on this:

Epic slap fight.

I've been hit harder than that by a pillow

It’s 2 mins. Boarding and softish, but no embellishment either.

I don’t understand how in God’s name they can call that a major and game misconduct.

Had no choice, if an injury (ie cut and stitches in this case) from boarding, it’s a major and a game.
See rule 41.5 I think

Even though it’s been said a dozen times or more in thread. Apparently no one is reading.

Epic slap fight.

Alex Semin approves

Some of the blame is on Norris. I dont think he dove, but he certainly wasnty ready to be shoved, and he should have been. It's the only reasonable explanation as to why such a soft 'hit' would lead to what happened.

Again.. 2 mins would have been fair. This coming from a Sens fan.
