I've seen him be careless with his stick when he get's mad, but never really seen him throw a hit like that

3 games? I mean sure
 
Not shocking. It's a bad hit. We want Zegras to play with fire in his game but not play with fire with others' health and get stupid results like this that harm the team. Oh well. We press on.
 
It's pretty close to the Cogs hit but worse so 3 games makes sense i suppose. Maybe we already had a baseline 2 game suspension from Parros and now the Getzlaf tax adds another game.

Pretty dumb hit and I have no idea how the refs didn't call anything on the ice.
 
I'm not upset at the suspension, the term is a game longer than I feel it should, but what I'm really upset at is no suspension or even a hearing for chiarot. Then again I shouldn't be surprised the ducks get screwed when it comes to officiating.... And the wings get a free pass.
 
1st time suspension gets 3 games ???? Of course it happened against the RedWings who always seem to have the DOPS working for them since 2007.

I heard it's because this was the second for Zegras, he's also been fined once. Lilleberg was a first time offender.
To my knowledge Zegras has never been suspended before. That is what 1st time offender 'should' mean but that they consider previous fines to be on level with a suspension is nuts to me. So a guy who yells at the ref (hurt refs feelings) and gets a fine is equal in terms of 1st time offense as someone elbowing someone and getting suspended for it.

I mean this is the exact hit they’re trying to get out of the game. Don’t put the DOPSHIT in that situation.
 
Not surprising, figured he'd be suspended soon as I saw the hit. Exact sort of hit the NHL hates.

Also going to be honest, I don't see a world where Chiarot is anywhere close to a suspension. Cheapshot sure, but isn't really in the same realm as Zegras hit. A fine at absolute best.

if the league wants to eliminate ALL cheap headshots, then Chiarot's cheap shot to Frank's head should be punished as well. shouldn't be picking and choosing which cheap headshots are ok.

That's why it should have been a fine. It was a cheapshot, not close to being suspension worthy. They were not close to being the same thing.
