HNIC/Twitter firestrom caused the league to act. because they are idiots
I mention the Panthers because something similar happened in a Panthers/Lightning preseason game (I assumed the biggest Bennett fan watched it) and there were exactly zero fines.
Got it? this is not the new standard for a fine...I will be proven right again and again this season

Two Oilers have been suspended in recent memory for fighting a guy that didn't drop the gloves. I feel like Andersson would have too if he had landed any of his punches.
Heck, Lucic got suspended for a gloved punch didn't he? He also got fined in Edmonton for knocking a guy down and roughing him up a bit when he was on the ice.
I feel like this is the new standard.
