Suspension for Nikita Kucherov? The verdict has just been announced
Following his vicious hit on Kaiden Guhle last night, Nikita Kucherov was waiting for his verdict today.
He was waiting to see if he would be suspended, fined, or if he would get off scot-free.
It looks like it will be the third option.
The NHL will not penalize Nikita Kucherov for his hit on Kaiden Guhle, according to Eric Engels
See his post.
"Not expecting any supplementary discipline for Nikita Kucherov." - Eric Engels, Sportsnet
Not even a simple fine to send a certain message.. Are you disappointed?
Engels says there will be no "additional disciplinary measures," but there weren't any at all. Kucherov wasn't even penalized on the play. Ridiculous.
Details to follow.
Fans weren't having it with this decision and rightfully so:
