"According to NHL Senior Vice President of Hockey Operations Mike Murphy, who was in charge of making the final ruling, there were a number of reasons that led to the decision not to suspend Richards: he did not target Booth's head; he did not leave his feet to deliver the blow; he did not hit an unsuspecting player; he is not a repeat offender; and he did not hit Booth late, as it was determined the blow was delivered less than a half-second after Booth passed the puck."
Poffa: Hade han varit svart och hetat Brashear så hade vi snackat ett par månader. Det är skillnad på folk och folk. Det håller ju inte att stänga av stjärnorna som folk betalar för att kolla på.
