Gotta love Youtube. Here is why Emery is suspended. By the way, I posted Emery fighting earlier.

I dont get it?

Anyways, I think 3 games is more than fair. He said that he was disapointed because he "didn't mean to do it". I don't think he did mean to do it but that is absolutely no defence for his action that could have resulted in a career ending injury if the person on the receiving end was not wearing a visor. Emery should shut up and accept his punishment.

But Admin people in the NHL get "accidently" high sticked in the face all of the time so if you give him a three game suspension why not give all of those players three game suspensions? I think that he should of got suspended but maybe one or two games not three.

I know you put accidental in " " but come on this was intent to injure. Not to the extent of a knee-on-knee or a check from behind or hit to the head, but Emery clearly used his stick to slash Lapierre in the head. That type of action is uncalled for. You're right, high-sticking does occur, but rarely are they intentional slashes as opposed to careless use of the stick (fore-swing, trying to lift a guy's stick, etc.).

I think if that was a player swinging his stick at another player the suspension would be a lot more. Just because he is a goalie he only got 3. Emery should have around 12 games.

No it was more then fair. I think beause he didn't hurt Lapierre his sentence was cut shorter.

You misread my statement. I never said it was accidental. Emery said that he didnt mean to do it. I think what he is saying is he didnt mean to get him in the face - because he definitely meant to slash at him. I dont think he meant to land the end of his stick across the guys face but he did and that is against the rules.

Let me restate my position. Although not quite as bad as the Mcsorely/Brashear slash to the head, the fact is that he slashed a guy in the head and 3 games for that is getting off easy.

This was no accidental high stick.
