Does anyone know if a player who gets suspended has his salary count against the salary cap? Believe so but if not, Clarkson just bought Nonis more time.

Clarkson's going to get 10 for that. Kessel deserves to get a couple games for the two-handed slashes as well. Though if nothing else, at least he didn't just turtle.

The salary continues to count against the cap.

Liked Miller just kind of grinning at Bernier, like "WTF, preseason man."

Kessel should get suspended for those chops. Vicious.

I hate what Scott did but I don't think it's suspendable. However Kessel's pair of wild 2 handers and attempted spear at the end should see both him and Clarkson suspended.

10 for Clarkson is an easy call but I think Kessel deserves 5 for his actions.

Scott went old school there. That could easily have been Semenko on Reinhart or Loob 30 years ago.

The heat this will build between the team will sell tickets. Not much different than a alex burrows hair pull or bite, which arent suspended either.

Now, had he got ahold of kessel... Different story

As much as I hate to say it, I doubt there will be many teams more entertaining to watch this season than the Leafs.

I actually hope they do well.

Not that well of course...

Special thanks to all of those idiots for embarrassing the sport of hockey. This will be the lead on ESPN all day tomorrow.

I'll be surprised if Kessel gets over 2 games. Unwritten rules bla bla bla

The commentary was pretty good in that video. Fairly objective which surprises me.

I don't know. What is Kessel supposed to do? Fight Scott?

Yeah, the slashes and spears were unnecessary, but Scott deserved them.

Honestly, the league is going to use Clarkson's ten-gamer as an excuse to let Kessel off the hook. Two games is fair, imo, but is two more than Shanahan will have the courage to give him.

Kessel shouldn't fight Scott of course. Scott tries to go at Kessel, teammate steps in, and away they go. No two handers or spears necessary.

Is there a difference between the initial slash and the spear at 2:08? The heat of the moment was over at that point.

As much as i dislike the leafs, the spear was probably worth a penalty, bu not a suspendable effort. Slash #1 is a penalty, slash #2 ... Fine at most. More likely just a penalty.
