- NHL San Jose Sharks: Evander Kane: 3 regular-season games for shoving an official in the final pre-season tilt.
Had to be some serious mitigation, even under the automatic rules, to get it down to three games.
There was some testiness between Kane and Vegas' Derek Engelland. Engelland cross-checks Kane, Kane slashes Engelland, both get misconducts.
Kane is skating up the ice, the official thinks Kane wants to escalate, grabs him, and gets shoved.
Unless there's significant mitigation, that's far more than three games. Kane ripped the call, saying the official took several aggressive strides unnecessarily, and will appeal.
- Korean Golf Tour: Bio Kim WAS the leading money-winner on the tour.
He's banned for THREE YEARS for flipping off the crowd after a tee shot.
I don't think I need to go into cultural differences as to how this might go over in Korea, but, after a wayward shot, he flipped the bird at the crowd after slamming his driver into the ground.
I do wonder how long, if anything, he'd be barred in the US...
- WTA Tour: A fan has been banned from this week's China Open for fighting with another fan.
