The game of hockey can be a pretty physical sport but what
exactly are the boundaries? With the Stanley Cup Finals going on right now many
players seem to be getting suspensions left and right. It is the job of Brendan
Shanahan to determine whether certain hits are taken too far and risking the safety
of other players.
On Sunday night in Newark, New Jersey Claude Giroux of the Philadelphia
Flyers hit the head of Danius Zubrus. He dropped his shoulder and went in for
the hit as Zubrus was fore-checking. Zubrus suffered no injurys but Giroux was
still punished for his action, a one game suspension.
Many cases like these are being brought up in the NHL and
many players are getting suspensions. Is Shanahan being too strict or are his
actions justified?
