Wow.
The NHL may be botching the Winter Classic announcement, but the league and its teams just get social media. Brendan Shanahan, the league’s disciplinarian, suspended Jody Shelley for the remainder of the preseason and five regular season games, thanks to this hit.
This might be the best use of web video ever by a sports league. The suspension is fair and the explanation is better. Mild ovation.
