But that sounds about right, yeah.

I appreciate that Kreider is an important young players for the Rangers. But that hit was pretty straightforward. People use the term "keep your head up" to defend cheap shots to the dome, all the time. But that cliche absolutely applies here.

I don't know about other people's local markets, but I live in upstate NY and there has been an ad campaign on TV using the "Keep Your Head Up" phrase, specifically for parents who have young kids who play hockey. I absolutely love that they are working to emphasize the aspect of self-awareness rather than trying to child-proof the sport by making kids play in bubbles.

Wow. Santa must have left some objectivity in his stocking this year.

It's not surprising, but it's still funny. "Even if it's clean, don't say it! We'll lose our leverage if there's a hearing!"
