I see political correctness reigns supreme again on CP. Quoting Barbara Hall

I wonder how many here have actually PLAYED a game of hockey?.... shiny doesn't count. Obviously people believe that there are a lot of pleases and thank you's out there in heat of the battle and this kid dropped a bomb on polite society.

Anyways, the coaches actions were way over the top. He amputated his leg to fix a hangnail. There were many far more subtle and effective ways of dealing with this.

I don't know what the OMHA's guideline for racial slurs but a 3 game suspension sounds about right. I would assume they have issued a warning that anything further will result in a far serious penalty. I personally would have demanded a letter or letters of apology to be written.
