Guess not. Wonder if he had a bonus clause in his contract for reaching 40.

Given his past stats/ numbers when he extended I would guess / bet that his bonus was probably at 30.

Howdy,

Marchand got 2 games for his spear.

 

So I'm a Pens fan and all, but I'm having a hard time squaring Marchand getting two games and Crosby not getting anything for his nutshot on O'Reilly the other day.  Marchand's looked a little harder maybe?

The differences are history and star power.

Here is NHL video explaining just that.

I can't imagine Matt Calvert not getting a couple games for his nonsense. 

[Kgbeast 195]

I did not see it as dangerous, but it was extremely rude. He was looking for a fist fight though, so rude is the way I guess. I think Calvert was pretty hot ever since ref grabbed his visor in a fight stop effort earlier.

[chippa13 1844]

Rude? He broke his stick on the guy then dropped him while he was hunched over. I guess we define rude differently.

[Stewie 721]

its dangerous. no question. anything from the back like that, and then the head area is dangerous.  

Jackets seem to be playing this series to alienate the many band wagon fans that have hopped on this season. They will soon be joining Calvert on the links.

This is something that SHOULD earn a fine. But since he hit a Penguin in the Playoffs, I think they'll dish out 2 games (which is 4 regular season games by suspension logic, and equally ridiculous.) 

[mojo122 535]

One game

One game seems about right for this.

Howdy,

I don't get how you only get one game for something as BS as just the breaking the stick across his neck, let alone then coming around and hitting him afterward.  I think they should have given him enough games that he wouldn't see the 1st round again.

But I have no clue what is "standard" or whatever.  To me, there's just no reason for that kinda shit.

(And yeah, Pens fan.  If it helps, I think Crosby should have sat a game or two after nut shotting O'Reilly)
