These max fines are always such an insignificant amount of money to players making millions per season. But at least they acknowledged it, I guess?
While that amount is paltry, I’m glad they gave him the max and I hope if he pulls the shit again they suspend him
It was a cheap shot. It deserved a multi-game suspension.
That’s more than my rent. I’m sure it’s just junk change for him.
Anaheim will now be on our shitlist for a couple years.
If they want to get and keep this kind of garbage out of the game they’re going to have to get more heavy-handed with the consequences. This is pathetic. He should be suspended — at least one game.
So $10.74 for a normal person? Damn. I wish that’s all it would cost me if I punched a dude in the head while he was on the ground. That’s comical.
Anyone have a clip of the hit?

Good!! That shit was a total cheap shot and bullshit. Only cowards sucker punch someone.
