If it was a 4th line player who did the hit it would be a suspension. The NHL rarely suspends stars.

Factor in that Chara also plays for the NHL's head of disclipine son's team, does this really surprise anyone, especially given Colin Campbell's leaked emails that came to light about 6months ago, what a joke. I know Mike Murphy made the decision but you have to be blind if you think Colin Campbell (his boss) didn't give his 2 cents, Campbell should've been fired when his emails were leaked.

Oh and a few pages back, the 7 year anniversary of Bert's hit on Moore was mentioned. I didn't realize Moore's case against Bert and Orca bay hasn't even been heard yet. http://www.vancouversun.com/news/Cou...501/story.html

I like how in the post game interview Price was the only guy to call Chara out. He said that it's the job of all the players to know where they're at at all times and that Chara knew that they were coming up into the glass in the middle.
Sad sight and yeah another NHL star goes undisciplined.

That's totally BS Chara didn't get suspended. Looking at the Youtube video and screen capture a few pages back, it looks to me like a head shot. I thought the NHL is cracking down on head shots.

the NHL is a joke plain and simple for the double standereds they have. They keep on saying they want to be like the NFL? well it doesn't matter who it is in the NFL they will get what they deserve. Bettman is the one thats fucking everytihng up. It's time for him to get booted out.

"If you cause a player to be injured, then you have to be responsible for the play ... if there's any carelessness or recklessness in it." Colin Campbell on Ovechkin's suspension last year

When team1040 discussed this today, they mentioned what henrik thought about it.
"Every players knows where they are on the ice."
It's as simple as that. People are arguing that Chara didn't intentionally hit him there, but he had every chance to hit him earlier or wait after the divider in the boards and nudge him then. Chara playing at an elite level that he is, definitely knew what he was doing. Dirty.

If both are ready, I want to see Higgins play. With Raymond playing through a shoulder and groin problem, the rest would probably help.

It's as simple as that. People are arguing that Chara didn't intentionally hit him there, but he had every chance to hit him earlier or wait after the divider in the boards and nudge him then. Chara playing at an elite level that he is, definitely knew what he was doing. Dirty. | There's just one problem with this theory: it assumes that Pacioretty was a mannequin and just stood there like a ragdoll, allowing Chara to steer him wherever he wanted to.
What happens, though, if Chara aims to take Pacioretty into the glass, hits him at that angle, but Pacioretty either backs off or tries to aborb the hit, and they both hit the boards sooner than Chara intended? Or conversely, if Chara was aiming to flip him over the low boards into the bench, but Pacioretty tried to fight him off, changing the trajectory into the stanchion?
Just two of the most obvious (to me, anyway) "what-ifs" that can happen in a split second... both fully accept that Chara would know where he was on the ice, and knew exactly where he INTENDED to take Pacioretty... and things didn't go as expected.
And both are very strong arguments an arbitrator or PA lawyer could make if strong discipline were brought down.
There's no clear intent... and without intent, it's nothing more than an unfortunate accident. Quote:

I don't hear anyone else saying "head shot"... including people who actually know something about hockey.
