More NHL: | | | | | In news that should come as a surprise to no one, there's been some disagreement with the NHL's disciplinary decisions this week.Shocking, right?Not long after the NHL announced 's for charging goalie , the i sued a short statement addre sing the suspension, which isn't exactly common practice acro s the league when supplemental discipline is handed out.General manager Mike Gillis said the team respects the proce s, but may not agree with the ruling."As an organization we respect the NHL and its proce s for supplemental discipline," said Gillis in the statement. "While we may not agree with this ruling, we will move forward and prepare for our important game tomorrow in Los Angeles. We do not intend to comment further on this matter." The NHL has made an effort to protect goaltenders, and as much as people want to believe they're fair game to hit when they leave their crease, they simply aren't. That's the rule, and the league is going to protect them (and seems to be pretty consistent with it, at least more so than it Bam Adebayo Jersey appears to be in other areas).Edler had no prior discipline history but it was a pretty clear charge on Smith, who had to leave the game after the second period and sat out of practice on Friday. Smith was on the receiving end of a similar hit in last year's playoffs from forward . Shaw was suspended three games for that hit.But the Canucks weren't the only ones expre sing some disagreement with the league on Friday. Shortly after it was revealed that forward would on , forward Joffrey Lupul wanted somebody to explain to him what warrants a suspension and what doesn't.If someone can explain the decisions on what warrants a suspension and what doesn't, please let me and the rest of guys know.. Joffrey Lupul (@JLupul) Lupul of course was for a hit to the head of Tampa Bay's .Even with the Canucks and Lupul voicing their disagreement and confusion, the NHL seems to have made the right call on both Edler and Lupul.But Nash's seemed to be just as bad -- if not worse -- and the exact type of play the NHL is looking to eliminate (and if it Avery Bradley Jersey 's not looking to eliminate that type of play, it certainly should be). An NHL spokesperson told me Friday night that Nash neither targeted the head nor made principal point of contact with the head, and that at most it should have been a charging penalty. He added that "the department of player safety doesn't react to mi sed penalties by i suing fines and suspensions."And it shouldn't be expected to that in most normal cases.But this wasn't your run-of-the-mi s mi sed call in a game. Those happen. It's a fast game with a lot of stuff happening, and some things are slipping through. But this wasn't your run-of-the-mill mi sed call. Nash left his feet and went high on a defensele s player after he got rid of the puck. I'm not even convinced after watching the play (again and again) that the head wasn't the principal point of contact.The Nash play not only deserved a penalty, it deserved an additional punishment from the NHL.
