It's a 2 minute penalty and that's it, no suspension.
A deliberate elbow to the head is at least a fine

Shannon is just bonkers. These comments tonight and the ones he made about Marchand not deserving the Hart because the team switched coaches make him sound like an old man shouting at people on the street.

How John Shannon has a job on TV is beyond me

Nah, there was no injury on the play. The NHL doesn't admit mistakes unless an injury is involved.

Who says they can't? Doesn't mean I can't call their actions classless.

Well, thanks Shannon. If they weren't before, they're more likely to now that you called it out for them. In fact, now they look bad if they don't.

Lol at Tkachuk getting a suspension. Doughty clearly sold that. Guy deserves an Oscar.

There's no doubt it's elbowing as it reads in the NHL rulebook... as a 2 minute minor. He was stationary and hit Doughty with the back end of his arm.
LOL...the back end of his arm?

What's wrong with what Shannon said? It will get a hard look by the NHL, stop being homers.

Ummm isn't every elbowing penalty by definition a deliberate elbow to the head?

John Shannon's takes are not worth the News Update forum wrap. How dare you hockey.modern

That's the book on Darryl. When he becomes the coach of a team his message is fresh for 2-3 years, then gets stale. If you want immediate results for your team, bring Darryl in for 2-3 years then let him go.

I still remember at the beggining of the season Shannon was on Tim and Sid and he got all giddy when talking about the Oilers and made Tim and Sid ask him who he thought had the better future between the Pilers and Flames, just so he could say the Oilers. He just talks out of his ass, and has an annoying ass voice
