Didn't look too bad. Careless stick, but not a baseball swing by any means.
Maybe a game or two?
I disagree.
Careless stick is if while he's falling his stick comes up high and catches Coyle. In this case, he's on his back and after a few seconds takes a deliberate swing into Coyle's face. One handed or not, that was brutal and sounds like it broke Coyle's nose.

What is it with Duncan Keith using the blade of his stick to attack a Western Conference opponent's American winger wearing 1 3 whose first name ends in a long 'E' sound in a road game when the opponents are clad in their alternate jerseys featuring script logos?

After the Wideman thing I realize I just can't call something intent. But boy did I feel like he was pissed, took a look, and took a good might chop at his face.
It looked diirty to me. But, I have to say again, I thought Wideman hit the ref on accident, so I can't be judged for any of my opinions.

I sort of thought that but watching it at full speed it was pretty fast between landing on his back and flipping over.
You might be right though. At best, it was careless and should be suspended, at worst...

I agree with your assessment of both situations. That was a deliberate swing of the stick by Keith.
Keith gets suspended 5 games and the first round of the playoffs. Keith appeals but bettman denies the appeal (some really weird text messages to Pattie Kane involved). It goes to arbitration but by that time it's well into the second round.
Man, that really sucks for Keith!
