NHL Playoffs 2013: Was Suspending Eric Gryba 2 Games the Best Call by the NHL?

The NHL has stopped Eric Gryba of the Ottawa Senators two games for his reach on Lars Eller of the Montreal Canadiens, in accordance with TSN.ca. The crash happened in the second period of Game 1 Thursday evening in Montreal. Raphael Diaz made a dangerous pass up ice which Eller received near the Habsa blue line, and then be destroyed instantly by Gryba. Eller landed hard on the snow and flung violently in the air. He lay motionless, face down, with blood whilst the coach came to help him pouring from his face. He kept on the ice for a few minutes before being removed on a stretcher and transferred to a hospital. What's promising is that Eller was released from a medical facility on Friday, but, in accordance with NHL.com, he experienced "a concussion, cosmetic breaks, loss in consciousness and had teeth knocked out." For Gryba, there's significant debate in the tennis world regarding the legitimacy of the attack and whether he needs to have been stopped at all. Gryba received a five-minute major for disturbance and a game misconduct for the hit, but was it actually interference? Gryba delivered the attack if the puck was on Elleras stay. He originally made contact with Elleras mid-section, lowered his shoulder and also kept his feet on the ice. ItAdoesn'tAappear as though Gryba made an attempt to target Elleras mind, and along with that, GrybaAdoesn'tAhave a brief history of dirty plays in his young NHL career. As likely the perhaps only and primary reason behind Grybaas suspension elleras injury is left by that. While Brendan Shanahan provides a really different view in the NHLas description movie, that may seen here. No-one ought to be surprised by the judgment, as Shanahan and the NHL have already been inconsistent in their disciplinary decisions for quite a while, with nevertheless. Whether we like it or not, it appears where open-ice strikes like that one is going to be disciplined in some manner the game is heading in a direction. If the gamer getting the reach is hurt, that is. Iam sure several fans and players alike would prefer if thatAwasn'tAthe situation and suspensions were based mainly on the act as opposed to the level of the other playeras incidents. Something is for sure, it'll definitely be worth watching the rest of this collection.
