Thread: Shanahan's twitter feed will explain all suspensions - with video

OMG, NHL is doing something intelligent. Get your umbrellas out, it's gonna start raining frogs any minute. Twitter

Wow. A transparent process with a possibility of feedback?

WTF Shanny? Too many concussions?

Nice job by him and the NHL to be serious about this right from the start of pre-season games. To do this publicly, with explanations, and drive the point home to the entire league and its fans is long overdue, and should have the desired impact of removing (or at least limiting) hits like these from the game. Good on them!

This sounds like an excellent idea. I hope he keeps it up and doesn't go back on his word.

i like this process and all.. but did nobody from the NHL see the hit on muzzin? that boarding penalty was way more brutal than than the one they decided make a suspension call on.

Brilliant move by the NHL.

A step in the right direction.

I think the problem on that one was lack of official TV coverage.

Anyways...I'm VERY pleased by how this is handled this early in the season...Shelley, Staubitz, Wisniewski even indefinitely...so far, so excellent! Let's just hope someone doesn't start to influence him.

8 reg. season games for Wisniewski. Well done!
