Except the people cheering for the Canadians don't have the teams logo plastered. Everyone was acting as if It was the Flames.

Prust caught Stepan's jaw/chin..........which is part of the head.

So........identical.

As far as I know, prust was suspended for the late hit, not for contact with the head.

Should be the same suspension as Prust you would think.

At least Montreal gets a 5 minute PP out of it... the Rangers got nothing.

That was a nasty hit, Weise was being a knob though. Maybe a taste of his own medicine?

Apart from late hit, I don't think that hit warrants suspension. That 5 minutes major penalty should be enough.

Stupid hit.

Skating up the ice with the puck is being a knob?

He was suspended for the entire play.......late hit, blindside, to the head.

There's a reason Stepan has a fractured jaw.

Not sure what the issue is here. Both hits were very, very similar and Moore should get a game or two.

It was deemed chest was the initial contact point. No chest on this hit .

I think the majority of people were showing their love for Iginla, who was basically the Flames for 15 years and of course their hate for the Canadiens.

The explanation I read on CBC and tsn was that he was suspended for a "late violent hit".

Hard not to bet money on 2 games

Did you watch the replay? Weise was going headhunting out there.

Well, he was a Canuck earlier this year.

Aye, I think a game is enough tbh -- but I won't bet against the two.

how the hell can subban stay our for more than 1:30 per shift?

Prust hit was late and initial contact was chest, this hit was late with initial contact was head. Should be more than 2 games. IMO
