Max Domi of Montreal has been banned the rest of the preseason for four punches at an unwilling Aaron Ekblad of the Florida Panthers.
Knocked Ekblad down and cut him with the fourth punch, got a seven-minute power play against the Canadiens and a match penalty for his efforts.
Banned five more preseason games, but none of the regular season.
I'm all for the "Wanna go? Wanna go???" nature of pro hockey.
But especially with the league watching fights a lot closer these days, that should've been five of the REGULAR season on top of the other five, and longer, depending on Domi's record.
Not enough, NHL. NOT ENOUGH!
Mark it down. Revenge gets served, probably, December 28th -- the first regular-season meeting.
