No Supplemental Discipline for Zdeno Chara
TORONTO – National Hockey League Senior Vice President of Hockey Operations Mike Murphy today issued the following statement on Boston Bruins defenseman Zdeno Chara’s hit in NHL game #996 last night against the Montreal Canadiens:

"I conducted a hearing with Boston Bruins' defenseman Zdeno Chara with respect to the major penalty for interference and game misconduct that he was assessed at 19:44 of the second period for a hit on Max Pacioretty of the Montreal Canadiens.

“After a thorough review of the video I can find no basis to impose supplemental discipline. This hit resulted from a play that evolved and then happened very quickly -- with both players skating in the same direction and with Chara attempting to angle his opponent into the boards. I could not find any evidence to suggest that, beyond this being a correct call for interference, that Chara targeted the head of his opponent, left his feet or delivered the check in any other manner that could be deemed to be dangerous.

“This was a hockey play that resulted in an injury because of the player colliding with the stanchion and then the ice surface. In reviewing this play, I also took into consideration that Chara has not been involved in a supplemental discipline incident during his 13-year NHL career."

I thought he'd get 2-3 games alone based on injury, as a Bruins fan i'm happy he didn't get suspended because he's obviously one of our if not our best player. Do i think he deserved a suspension, yes... happy he didn't get suspended, as a fan... yes.

I'm surprised, not because this was a suspendable hit (it wasn't), but because the league likes to rule based on the severity of the injury.
Good for the league to finally make the right call.

What a farce. Murphy and the rest of those nitwits are an absolute joke. Suspend Gilles for a weak hit, and let Chara slide.

**** the NHL. No wonder it's the ranked below woman's bowling in the US.

Bring back the bench brawls, the broad street bullies, the original 6 stick attacks...

I could have given two ****s less had Chara not gotten suspended if Gillies hadn't. This doesn't have anything to do with Boston for one Flyer fan at least.

You really do not think this was a joke? You don't think he shoulda been suspended?

If the role woulda been reversed, you and all your Bruin monkeys woulda been climbing the trees, and swinging on vines worse than an orangutan.

A penalty that leads to serious injury is generally suspendable.

At least we don't have to hear about the Coyotes for the next little while....right?
