The NHL is starting to become a joke of a league.
I'm gonna defend this BECAUSE of the severity. If Wiz got his stick up(couldn't tell from the video, but I saw no need for him to use lumber, he had velocity), then shame on him(game or two). He came into the zone just fucking flying(not a bad thing, when Myers does it we love it). He certainly glided before he laid the hit(no charging). He also hit the man straight on. While the hit may have seemed late as hell, it happens faster than you think. If you'll notice on the video, just before he's hit, Seabrook "appears" to be looking to play that puck. Maybe that's all Wiz saw, and put on the hurt. Sometimes this is a tough ass game. Period.
Flame away.
Just watched further into the video. Any elbow/stick was incidental, but he certainly had intent. 8 games is just too many though, as the play was certainly close. The guy may have actually thought Seabrook was playing that puck. 1, 2 or 3 at most. Liking that he learned from Pronger to waste guys that waste your teammate(fairly of course).
