Not a cheap shot.
Just like Torres, Marchand will play a good number of games and forget his brain at home and take another cheap shot at an opponent that is in a bad position and unable to defend himself. (He was suspended 2 games in 2015 for that slew foot btw.)
Why?
That is just the kind of guy he is.
Plus I knew it would draw you into the conversation as I started the last thread on the Marshand slew foot and subsequent suspension. Not really trolling cause I appreciate your input. Maybe he has turned over a new leaf, but time will tell.
I am glad to hear that you are in agreement with the Torres suspension. The game is changing and I don't always like the changes. The speed of the game, size of the players is one thing but the improvement in the protective gear seems to have made the players more reckless on the ice and less respectful to the safety of their opponents.
41 games for Torres, his career in the NHL could pretty much be over. Maybe that is not a bad thing.
Will it be enough to discourage this type of behavior? I guess time will tell that too.
