Witkowski needs to be suspended for many games. I am fine with the original fight. Witkowski went after the guy that was actually taking liberties. He is taken to the box and then off the ice (locker room) by an official, and then he came BACK out onto the ice after the official turned away.

From Greg Wyshynski:
It's hard to imagine a scenario where Luke Witkowski of the Detroit Red Wings doesn't get the automatic 10-game suspension mandated by Rule 70.6, after he was ordered to the dressing room by the officials but turned around on the runway, stepped back on the ice and ignited a melee near the benches on Wednesday night against the Calgary Flames. It doesn't matter if he was instigated by Matthew Tkachuk's stick poke – this is verboten, as was indicated by the double misconducts he received to go along with his game misconduct for pummeling Brett Kulak. (He earned a total of 37 penalty minutes.) He plays less than 10 minutes a night on average, so he's ripe for the NHL to make an example of him. As for the rest of the shenanigans, I wouldn't be stunned if Andreas Athanasiou of Detroit and Micheal Ferland of Calgary earned a couple of fines for engaging in this chaos from the benches. Tkachuk got a game misconduct for the poke/spear; wonder if that's it? Fun, old-time hockey always has its consequences.

Typically, I find someone who uses “verboten” in a sentence to be a pretentious Canaan. It checks out in this situation.

All three posts here are generally correct. I don't think he gets all 10, I think they might scale it down based on the "intent of the rule" - I've never been in this situation myself, so I can't speak to it first-hand though...that said, being that he's an AHL caliber player, the 10 might be easier to give and still sleep well...either way, suspension forthcoming...
I actually kind of like Tkachuk being an absolute troll since he stepped into the league for some reason...he's a rat, boy oh boy...I like the way he does it though...until I don't...

Cam Atkinson signed a 7 year, $40.25MM extension with the BJs. $5.875 per year seems okay for him I guess. Last year's version of him at least. Certainly not this year's. Also didn't realize that he's already 28. I don't see him aging gracefully.

I just watched this. Really well done.Ice Guardians is now streaming on Netflix and it's really fantastic. Lots of great interviews with enforcers from all different eras and it does a nice job covering fighting from many different points of view. Well worth a watch.

I’m fairly surprised Niemi was able to get in front of that one. He’s collected his game checks this season despite actively trying to avoid being hit by the puck.

Shanahan started off strong, too.
We'll see how long this one lasts.

Sabres unveiled their Winter Classic jerseys.
Meh. It's classic, sure, but not all that different from their 08 Winter Classic look. Would've been cool to see a different crest or for the red and black look to return.

Just wait til next month when the person who runs that account, and the person thats on @penguins will be under the same roof. Those back and forths are going to bring cringe to a new level.Trying wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyy too hard to be cool.Holy Christ is that Vegas twitter account obnoxious.
All I've seen from it is running their mouths about how great they are, then they were crying about getting chirped because they are "just an expansion team."
The other day they were trolling ej hradek because he was taking questions on twitter and had the gall not to mention the Vegas Golden Knights with every answer.
