So where is the player’s union in all of this - are they really ok with players being suspended bases on lip reading? What is next, would a player be suspended for calling someone a ‘big, fat, idiot’ because that could be offensive to fatties and the mentally deficient? What a bunch of sissies.
And he got the same suspension that a Flyers player did a couple days earlier for hitting a guy from behind into the boards in a maneuver that could left him in a wheelchair for life.
