That Didn’t Take Long (Updated with Video)

Update (10:25 PM):

Hudler did return to the game for the second and third periods after receiving 10 stitches.

Will the league have anything to say about that, or will a game misconduct be deemed enough? If they’re serious about policing headshots, as the Brashear punishment seemed to show, Brown ought to get at least a game. - Matt

Just 11:29 for the first possible suspendable offense by the Ducks: Mike Brown’s high, late center ice hit on Jiri Hudler, which earned a five minute interference major and a game misconduct. That was quick even for the Ducks.

Hudler, by the way, has not returned, though he’s likely just getting stitches. The game is tied 1-1 on a Perry goal and a Franzen “Okay I score now” play.

    Doesn't suprise me in the least. I'd love for Corey Perry to get an elbow to the head. That tool throws punches left and right and the refs choose to ignore it. I am reminded once again why I can't stand the Ducks.

    Looks like the inconsistency continues, no suspension for Brown:
