The National Hockey League has announced that Bruins defenseman Charlie McAvoy will be suspended without pay for the first six games next season for his slash on Sabres forward Zach Benson in Game 6 of their first-round playoff series.
The Sabres eliminated the Bruins in that game.
My take: Good. Definitely deserved that (actually more, but good by NHL standards). Now, how that's different that Ridly Grieg's sucker-punch uppercut to a defenseless player?
