I don't get it. I am fine with this suspension but a few weeks ago Tom Wilson got 0 games even though he is also a repeat offender?

I remember being disappointed even we didn't acquire him. Dodged a major bullet though. He just has zero self control. Can't help himself from doing things that destroy careers and his own team's chances of success.

Tom Wilson acting like a baboon a few weeks ago wasn’t nearly as dangerous or malicious as this hit by Kadri. And I’m saying this as someone who dislikes Tom Wilson and likes Nazem Kadri.

Kadri probably only got what he should have because of the Wilson outrage. You'd hope this would cause more consistency in their discipline, but I trust George Parros' DOPS the least of any that we've seen, so probably not.

Perfect suspension, a big one in the playoffs.

A predatory hit, a nasty one, right to the head, blindside, at top speed. I mean, the fact the Kadri is sitting in the box saying "What's wrong with that?" just shows how his brain works.

I would still take him in a second. Especially for a guy who walked as a UFA.

Should have been double. But I'll take it.

They ruled Tom Wilson's actions as self-defense against the possible Lady Byng winner.

No thank you. He didn't want to play for Calgary and kaiboshed the deal IIRC using his 10 team no trade clause. No bloody way do I want someone here that CLEARLY doesn't want to be here, let alone the fact he's a garbage player who takes way too many stupid penalties.

Any good views of the hit?
I actually don't think it looks that bad from the initial post but would like to see better angles.

8 games seems excessive for that hit. Must be getting the repeat offender bump.

Playoff games are usually worth twice as much. So they’re saying this is close to a 15-20 gamer. Absolute random wheel of justice.

He got the multiple time repeat offender bump, yes.
