HockeyBuzz Wire: Kucherov to have DoPS hearing

1 game suspension is my guess.

How was that hit any different than kadri’s hit last year in the Boston series.......that he got 3 games for!

Nutivarra doesn’t play for Boston

3 games for sure if he did

Should be five games. He’ll get one

Kadri is not a star and plays for the Leafs,......Kucherov is a star and plays for the Lightning....that's the difference.

Should have been 3

Kadri threw his hit in retaliation to two huge players trying to kill Marner.
Kucherov's move was more of just a hockey play as hockey happens. There is a difference. If the refs had called the elbow to Marner ...

Its the world against Leafs Nation....

The Jackets get no respect from the DOPS and Gary Buttman. In the playoffs last year Tom Wilson laid a head shot on Alex Wennberg (concussion), and Panarin also took a knee-to-knee hit. No real enforcement on either on.
DOPS' enforcement attitude for the playoffs is borderline "alls fair". Also, considering they have no fine/penalty structure, you never know what type of ruling they will vomit out of their mouth.
Something like:
Star player committed foul - fine or 1 game max;
Star player was hit by non-star player - immediate 3-10 game suspension;
Big market/original six team committed foul - minimum fine or 1 game max;
Big market/original six team was hit by small market team - max fine, 3-10 game suspension;
