C'mon man, you know there's varying degrees of voilations. You don't give the death penalty for a speeding ticket.
15 minutes late because they got stuck in traffic or were late from dinner while talking hockey is one thing. This is a "you guys are knuckleheads, I want you to run some stadium steps and carry everyone's bag for the next road trip" violation.
Coming back ****-faced from a strip club at 4am when you have to play a playoff game in 12 hours is another. This is suspendable, IMHO.
I freely admit we don't know the whole story, but if what SK says is true - how can you justify suspending them for 2 games? Wouldn't a more lenient punishment have been more appropriate?
DP/Trotz can run their team any way they see fit. But when the results aren't there, then you have to start questioning the methods.
