Hey fans and teams called for a crack down on slashes.
It was expected yhe NHL would over react and call every little tap.

The one Brodie got for tapping the oilers player hip really stuck out to me .

There was also a play in the game in Calgary where a Oilera player was like 6 feet away and poke checked the flames player and his stick rode up the flames stick to his fingers and that was also slashing.

Classic over reaction by a governing body. We see this in politics too. Hope fully this gets sorted out as the season goea on. We all want slashing yo come down but not every time a stick barley touche a player constitutes ot.
