He probably won't nor should he. I still feel the punishment should be based on what he did not necessarily by the aftermath alone. But lets face it, this "hit" was not a brutal hit and it wasn't a hit to the head either. It was definitely from behind but it was really more of a push than a hit. It wasn't even boarding as he didn't hit him from behind into the boards. Had it happened anywhere on the ice besides right by the dasher I don't think there is any injury or any penalty call.
No bias from me, I don't care about either of the teams or players involved. I'm just calling it like I see it, and I'm seeing a minor push from behind with no contact to the head that unfortunately happened in a bad spot on the ice and lead to an injury.

So, it'll be interesting to see what Shanny does here.
You're assuming that shanny WILL do something...

Shanny has been handing out some big suspensions so far this year. What we've seen him do in the past apparently sets no precedent for what he's going to do this season.

Now I'm curious to see who gets a longer suspension, Lapierre or McLoed. To me McLoed's hit was much more violent than Lapierre's. Kronwall got absolutely crushed on that hit.

Lapierre get 5 games. Honestly, I like Shanny's explanation on this one too only because he saw it pretty much the same way I saw it (except I missed the toe pick on the kick plate).

I'm in the money on your "ultra douche" bet. Will let you out early for $8.75 which is enough for a tall Molson at The Joe. 
Speaking of ultra douchey, now I know why domcha's been more irregular up in here lately. :gheylaugh:

Compared to Lapierre's hit, McLoeds was more brutal and had no "hockey play gone bad" factor plus he directly crushed Kronwall's head.

This just deserves to be shown. I wish more goalies would take the chance at the long bomb.
