Montreal Canadiens forward Maxim Lapierre has been suspended for four games for a late hit on San Jose forward Scott Nichol during Thursday night's Sharks victory.
Late in the third period, Lapierre knocked Nichols into the end boards with a late, careless hit. A scuffle between the two teams ensued as Nichol lay on the ice for some time before getting up on his own. He left the game favoring his shoulder and did not return.
No penalty was assessed on the play.
After the game, Sharks head coach Todd McLellan told the Mercury News he thought the hit was "a missed call and a real dangerous play."
Sharks defenceman Dan Boyle had a similar view.
"There was, as far as I'm concerned, a really dirty hit on our guy." said Boyle. "Pushing a guy from behind into the boards, I have not seen the reply yet, but you can paralize a guy and there is no place for that in hockey."
It is still unknown how serious an injury Nichol suffered on the play.
Lapierre will be eligible to return March 13 against the Boston Bruins.

1. Boyle should shut his effing mouth. He's a dirt bag.
2.
Nichol is also a dirt bag.
3. Cowardly hit by Lapierre, and a dangerous one at that. Glad he got suspended.
Moral of the story kiddies, is don't be a cheap piece of dirty garbage, and chances are, you won't be on the receiving end of a cheap piece of dirty garbage.

Lapierre is a douche.
The TSN guy was really, really ticked off, too. He got angry on the air. It was funny.
That was former NHLer Ray Ferraro who getting mad at that. I really don't blame him for being pissed though, you don't laugh a a guy who could be seriously hurt

I totally agree with him. I thought it was awesome that he was so ticked on air.
Don't give a shit. Nichol is one of the dirtiest players in the NHL right now, so maybe being on the receiving end of a gutless play will wake his ass up.

Explain OV's hit on Campbell?
