Ryan Hartman Match Penalty for "Attempt to Injure" on Tim Stützle (upd: in-person hearing - 10 games)

[Martin Skoula]

Cap hit and not actual salary?

Seems odd.

Guys in the 8th year of a front loaded signing bonus contract would get fined 12 bucks a day if it was salary.

They asked the same question with Byfuglien

When did Byfuglien do something like this?

 

[OilersFanatics505]

Well they are one of the worst tv screws in the league for a reason.

Its even the excuse that Hartman came up with himself….

 

[Breakers]

When did Byfuglien do something like this?

Jt miller
4 game suspension
Crushed the back of his neck
Easily worse

 

[Bard Marchand]

Doing some quick math, missing 10 games is 12.1% of the season, 12.1% of Hartman's $4M salary is $487k. I know NHL salaries are way more complicated than that and that the actual monetary penalty to him is much less than that. But it's still gotta hurt more than those pitiful $5k fines that DOPS likes to throw around. Plus if tries to FAFO within the year, he'll probably get slapped with a Raffi Torres like suspension.

So not like this at all, as I thought.

Hartman here did a slewfoot and drove the head to the ice with his body, Byfuglien cross checked. "Easily worse," shrug. That one's more comparable to stuff like the Myers or McDavid cross checks.

 

[SensFactor]

He will appeal unfortunately and they will reduce it down to 7 games. Hold your ground Buttman

Byfuglien on Miller was really bad

What the hell are you even talking about?

The discussion was about breaking a players neck, both are driving a player in the prone position to the back of the neck

One with a stick the other with a forarm

yeah - both plays were awful, potentially devastating, and completely non-hockey.

 

[onmygameboi]

Why are you acting like I'm the one who makes the rules? Ask the NHL why they made it a rule. What even are you trying to prove? The dude got fined for doing something the NHL doesn't allow. The constitution is completely irrelevant in this scenario.

Could've and should've said "who cares" to your dumbass post about your constitutional rights that are not the same as what your employer allows.

Who cares?

 

[Chainshot]

10 games is not enough.

 

[charger66]

As a wild fan 10 wasn't enough.

 

[Satan]

ban this loser for life

Union needs to be given, and accept, some of the blame here. The fine amounts would be negotiated as part of the CBA. I think the more equitable solution for fines issued without suspension would % of salary.
