Hertl deviates last second by slowing down to avoid as much body contact as possible (you can see the snow from his skates as he hits the brakes), AND, he reaches to try and poke the puck free.

Edler does not deviate or react at all to try to still get a piece of Hertl, and continues through with what would have been a routine body check. The hit is not too high or low, the timing is not early or late, elbows are not out, he is gliding not charging, he does not deviate his path.

Hertl cannot have the best of both worlds in this scenario. Either take the hit properly to make the play.....or hit the brakes, avoid contact, and leave the puck where it lies.

This is a sad league.

And this gets 5 games....and it's a Sedin, not a rookie.

A lot less than I anticipated. How the fuck did Murray ever get away with all his ass first head shots? It was Murray wasn't it.

Great now we get to see what Alberts can do, or wait do we just slide Webber back there?

I can't even work up any outrage about this latest act by the NHL.

I used to like hockey.

Shannahan is a complete hack.

His predecessor was just as bad.

Inconsistency the only consistency.

We all know this.

The list of offenders who did worse but got less is very long.

See Duncan Keith for starters.

Is anyone really surprised by this?

Moving on.

I still like hockey, but I'm at the point where if any other brand of hockey was viewable in HD (I'm a diva that way) I would tune into that instead of the NHL. I seriously think that if a rival league started up they would pull both players and fans away from the NHL by the tens of thousands.

This is the same old bullshit attempt to police the game. Intolerance at the start of the year to send a message and by the Stanley Cup Final, outright murder will just part of the game....

Unless of course the defendant is a Canuck then it's hammer time because nobody east of the Selkirk mountain range gives a flying fig...

I agree with both of these comments.

The inconsistancy in ingame reffing and suspensions is an absolute joke.

I was going to get cable back to watch Canucks games live but now I don't care enough, I'll just keep my peasant vision and listen to the odd game on the radio.
