The impact of whatever voynov did to his wife isn't even close to comparable to breaking someone's spine and ruining their life.
Steve Moore will never be the same. The incident happened in the NHL on the commissioners watch. That suggests for a harsher penalty by the NHL for conduct that is unbecoming to the game.
The courts figured the cost of the pain and financial loss sufferered by Moore at the hands of Bert was in the millions. Bert got a 20 game suspension, with the NHL citing the emotion strain on his family.
Now the NHL turns around and gives Voynov a defacto 6 year suspension. The NHL doesn't consider the toll such a large suspension has on his family - which is huge from a financial and emotional perspective.
Watson got 18 games for domestic violence. Voynov got multiple years...
It makes no sense. What am I missing? How is a suspension this large justified - is it because he went to play in Russia?
