Is Nolan going to be suspended.

[CaptHowdy00]

The replays show that the contact was made with the head and he left his feet.

Hard to tell what happened. Waiting for video. Most reports say he left his feet after the hit, which is allowed. The refs did not call a penalty on the play so the hit was not from behind( I am guessing).
That being said if the head(chin is a part of the head) was the primary point of contact and since their was an injury, i guess we wont see Nolan before game 6 of the season.

Also a Phx player left the bench after Nolan got out if the penalty box for a roughing call and may get 10 regular season games.

No.

Edit: and here's why http://video.nhl.com/videocenter/console?catid=60&id=444642&cmpid=nhl-twt

Also Bissonnette suspended 10 games for leaving the bench. His first eligible game back is against, naturally, LA.

Just announced no supplemental punishment.

Yeah
Phoenix writers were comparing it to Torres' hit. Looking at the video it appears nothing like Torres' hit. I will say it was close to his chin but the League has made its ruling.

 

[Flyingiguana]

surprised he wasnt' suspended. looked like he went for the head.

 

[PuckinUgly57]

Yeah, good non call.

Nolan didn't leave his feet or aim for his head. People have to remember that opposing players also brace themselves for the hit coming, and naturally curl up. Klesla knew he was coming and still played on - to his credit - but got blasted for doing so.

I feel bad he got taken off on a stretcher but agree Nolan didn't deserve anything. Not being a homer either, looked like a clean hit.

On a side note, he has almost always been a target by LA Players:

Brown on Klesla:

There's also another one from a few years ago when he was a member of the BJs and he got annihilated by an LA player too but I can't recall who it was.

Coyotes writers should stick to doing something non-homerish, like sucking Coyote cock. They don't shit for shat.

And I apparently can't put two thoughts together:


Coyotes writers should stick to doing something non-homerish, like saying how everyone is out to get the Dogs. They don't know shit for shat.
