The integrity of the Shanahammer and the NHL on cracking down Head shots just sunk to new lows
Radio mentioned how Shanahan could have fallen under pressure to the numerous complaints from GMs around the league. It also mentions how Shea Weber's incident wasn't a hockey play.
This was clearly an intent to injure type of incident. Yes Byron Bitz drove his elbow to Clifford, 5min and game misconduct and then face hearing. I understand that, he committed the crime, he will pay. Whether that hit from Bitz had any intent to injure is yet to be seen.
The league isn't suppose to tolerate any sort of "intent to injure type situation", Weber's incident had all the signs of an "intent to injure play" He deserved a game or two for that.
Pronger stomping to Kesler's foot got suspensions. So whats the difference here.
Is it cuz Weber isn't a repeat offender?(i could be wrong..)
