Some people in the hockey world are saying Eichel deserves a suspension.
Yout thoughts?
McDonagh did not return to the game and the Lightning will update his status today.

Ugh. This kind of hit happens lots every game…just that this was in that awkward void near the boards.
I don’t think it is suspension worthy.

Yes. Absolutely.the rules about boarding and hits to the Head were designed to prevent things exactly like this. Across check 5 to 6 feet out from the end boards that ends up with somebody doing a face-plant into the boards. It absolutely needs to be a suspension based on the rule. No more gray “he didn’t mean to do it” crap.

yikes, “looked” bad
but the contact was not much different then any other typical hockey ‘push’ (crosscheck)
verdict: no suspension warranted
