Instigators and Preseason Player Safety

About the Episode

The puck drops on the preseason with our first suspension and fine as Player Safety is already on duty. It’s a $5k punch from Petry, 2 games for Melanson, a first for the Seattle Kraken, and two fights — along with our first instigator penalty. Todd and Josh discuss whether another was warranted, and if the NHL should consider a different approach when it comes to the 2-5-10 of an instigator penalty… listen in and let us know your take.
