    Chris Kunitz and the Penguins

    Kidding me, did that really happen? Anyone see the elbow to Gagne's head?

    Downie's hit was pretty bad but Kunitz's elbow was so blatant and obvious. He will be suspended 2-3 games I'm guessing.

    Penguins are such a dirty team and how many times have they've seen their very own teammates like Matt Cookie suspended yet still throw dirty elbows. My guess is 2-3 games.

    Thanks for posting the clip. I was trying to guess "if" he would be suspended, not how long. I can honestly see a 2/3 game time out which might make TB more reasonable for me. Cheers

    Wow I was thinking much more that that. That hit could have put him on a stretcher if that was the case 5 games easy.

    the Pens keep getting preferential treatment from the league office. this has been a trend for years now. not shocking.

    Serious amateur hour. I love hockey but it will always be small time viewership, etc. worldwide thanks to NHL decisions like this one. TB might be the route for Wed. Cheers

    omg I can't believe he only got 1 game...Guess you can send your goon out to give the other team's stars a concussion, and only get a game.....
    So inconsistent in the NHL....This is a disgrace....

    Now tell me what would happen if the very same elbow got Crosby in the head in his first game back ? 1 game suspension right ?

    I'm a Pens fan and even I would say this is worthy of a lengthier suspension given they are trying to cut that sort of hit out.

    However, I think the main problem is consistency. Kunitz 1 game, Cooke 10 games + first round of playoffs, fair enough Cooke is a repeat offender but still.
    There is just no continuity at all IMO
