That hit was barely a penalty. Everyone would have kept skating if the guy didn't get knocked out and that was incidental. Penalty, okay, but I doubt there's more to it than that.

It'll probably be 2 games, I think they'll tack an extra game on because he didn't get the match penalty in this game.

Caps not going to get the puck luck today. Or the "not having your head blasted in" luck either.

I suspect no suspension. Unlike Orpik, Letang leads with his back. He's got plausible deniability or some stupid bullshit whatever reason they won't suspend him. But we all really know why.

Letang is gonna get 3 games because Orpik got 3 games. If the Orpik thing had never happened then I doubt Letang would have been suspended at all, but as it is, welp.

That's just a dumb hit on so many levels, not least of which is Letang is probably the most important Pen and him sitting even a game could cost them the series

Jumping is explicitly attempting a headshot, whether you're successful or not.

Furnaceface posted:Trotz was right all along. If DOPS gives Letang even one more game than they would have due to that comment (and I have no faith that they don't consider poo poo like that) then it looks like a brilliant (or lucky) move by Trotz.

Look he was up against the ice and it kind of caused him to leave his feet and smash a guy in the head. Jeez

Here's a replay of the hit http://i.giphy.com/l0K4pjIQYu07stkMo.gif It doesn't look like he leaves his feet until contact is made, which is legal

They really ought to ban launching into hits. No more of this, "Oh, he was jumping into the hit, but it's legal because his toenail was still on the ice" junk.
