Oh man! This is historic! Who saw this coming?!
According to a report from Flyers Nation, Philadelphia Flyers defenseman Radko Gudas has been suspended 10 games for his slash on Winnipeg Jets forward Mathiew Perreault.
Update:
Gudas will forfeit $408,536.60 in salary for his suspension.
Here is the play in question:
That's a dangerous, DANGEROUS play from Gudas. The question is... was his intentionally trying to hit Perreault in the head? It's a moot point now, seeing as how the NHL has obviously ruled that he was intentionally trying to injure Perreault. What's your take? Does the punishment fit the crime?
