NHL suspends Sabourin 4 games, Lightning teammate Moser for 2 after chaotic pre-season finale
28 comments
0 games to Greer (sucker punching a player), 0 games to Verhagae (same hit as Moser), 0 games for Mikko (played and got a point after getting thrown out, by league rules an automatic 10 game suspension)
Just lol.

Department of Panthers Success strikes again.
and the Panthers get nothing? I’m guess (as a new comer) this kind of thing is why there’s a wide spread hatred for that team.
This is truly insane. The league is not even letting the mask slip a little, the mask is torn off. Even in cheesy movies do they not make the villain so obvious and villainy.
Owners have to step up and do something. It’s their league not Colin Campbell’s fiefdom.
This is so absurd that it seems like TB is getting Punked 🤣
Did the Panthers seriously not get any repercussions from that game?
Department of Panther Safety strikes again
Hey, r/Hawks.
Laying the lumber tomorrow only costs 100k. All proceeds go to charity. Do it for the kids
Careful everyone, a Panthers fan might come through here and go off about how they’re the most unjustly hated team in the league if we don’t start saying more nice things about them
What a joke lmao
Colour me shocked!
0 for Mikkola because he did not want to be thrown off the ice
They’re the NHL Department of Player Safety, of course the Panther players are gonna be safe from suspension
This is why the NHL will always be bush.
At this point, as it appears the Florida Collin Campbells aren’t getting any punishment, even the automatic one, if I’m TB, I say fuck it, let’s eat the NHL bs and hand out our own consequences. Next game could be something else.
Fucking despicable.
Come on guys, you know how hard it is for a corrupt NHL exec to avoid corruption. When daddy’s special boy wants another cup, what else is one to do?!
The DPP is corrupt and needs a deep cleaning.
I dont think I have ever hated another team as much as them in major league sports history.
& that’s hockey folks
All these post are just Canadians and Tampa fans crying in a circle jerk together and the jerk is so hard they think everyone across the league is in on it
At this point, I foresee the entire league doing the same thing vs the Kittens. Call up 2-4 goons every game and fuck up this dirty team until the message is made.
The bias Bettman is showing for the Panthers is absolutely embarrassing for the sport.
So let me see if I have this all correct?
1. Hagel throws a dirty hit against Barvok in Game 1 and is suspended for 1 game.
2. In game 2, Tkachuk throws the exact same hit against Guentzel, receives a 5 minute major, but is NOT suspended.
3. Hagel returns from his suspension, where Ekblad throws the dirtiest elbow I have ever seen and knocks Hagel out of the game and didnt even receive a penalty and NO supplemental discipline.
4. In the same game, Mikkola throws a dirty against Girgerson while he is on his knees and DOES receive a 5 minute major but NO supplemental discipline.
So to recap last year:
– Hagel suspended 1 game and concussed by Ekblad.
– Tkachuk 5 minute major and no supplimental at all.
– Ekblad no punishment of any kind.
– Mikkola 5 minute major no supplemental at all.
That seem VERY one-sided but surely they are even with Hagel now and will stop targeting other players right!?
Now to this year:
– Hagel is cross checked and sucker punched by Ekblad again. Fined $2,200.
So apparently Florida are still being some salty bitches and Tampa is done being the victim.
– Sabourin cross checks and punches Ekblad. Suspended 4 games
– Schmidt cross checks and punches Verhaeghe. Fined $2,098.52
– Verhaeghe boards Girgenson (same dude boarded by Mikkola last year) no suspension or fine.
-Moser boarding against Boqvist. Suspended 2 games.
– Mikkola is ejected from the game for roughing but does not leave (supposedly to be an automatic 10 game suspension) – no actual suspension.
Seems to me like the Panthers got exactly what they have been doing except the league doesn’t punish them… got it…
Florida are Stanley Cup Champs, they get a pass for all their justified retaliations/s
