Matt Cookie has been suspended by the NHL for his hit on Scott Walker. [ Penguins.com]
Pittsburgh Penguins forward Matt Cooke has been suspended for two games, without pay, as a result of a blow delivered to the head of Carolina forward Scott Walker during NHL Game #687, Jan. 20 against the Carolina Hurricanes, the National Hockey League announced. Cooke will miss games against the New York Rangers on Jan. 28 and New Jersey on Jan. 30. He will be eligible to return Jan. 31 at Toronto.
Guess the NHL made a new rule that you can't hit Scott Walker at all.
Whatev. Can't really complain too much, because they had enough time to look at this.
Sounds like Carolina might have pushed the issue on this a little more.
Unlike Red Wings fans/players, you might not like what the league does, but you have to deal with it.
