Imagine what would happen in the NFL if a guy trucks a player waiting to receive a punt, before the ball gets to him.
The offending player would be ejected, suspended and ostracized.
As a result it almost never happens.
This is what happened to Dube. Result is a 2 minute penalty and a team looking for revenge.
The NFL is not the model but some of the things you can do in hockey within the rules of the games are ridiculous. That includes fighting.
