What a garbage ****ing play by Keith. Classless.

Keith should be perp-walked into custody.

I had no idea Duncan Keith had repeated high-sticking thuggery under his name.

Jeez that was horrendous. And LOL @ him trying to claim it was the stick going up as he fell down. Like, c'mon man. Who are you, Ginobili?

Yeah, he has a history of being a dirty player.
Needs to get the book thrown at him. But he won't. 1 game max.

The percentage of games going to the SO has increased quite a bit since the All-star break.
Coaches are figuring out how to over-manage 3-on-3.
By next year, I think we'll see a 50/50 split between OT and SO finals. Might even drop from that.
Never underestimate the power of coaches doing everything in their power to squeeze the life from every offensive concept.

Let's see. Duncan Keith.

- Star player
- Plays on a popular team
- Makes it look like it could have been an "accident" by looking away immediately.

Yep, he won't be missing a playoff game. 5 games - a nice, round number that the Hawks have left in the season.

What they should do is say "See you next year, Duncan." But they won't.

I dunno, I think he'll miss rest of the season (5-7 games or so) plus one series. 11-14 games total.

But as usual, the NHL's random discipline is in play.

He's already been offered an in-person hearing, which I believe ensures it is a minimum 6 game suspension.

In-person hearing just means the NHL can suspend him for 6+ games. There's no minimum.
