via TSN,
Nashville forward Scott Nichol has been suspended for five games for cross-checking Montreal’s Patrice Brisebois in the head in the Predators’ win over the Canadiens on Saturday night.
‘’The crosscheck by Mr. Nichol to the head area of his opponent was reckless and dangerous,’’ said Colin Campbell, NHL Senior Executive Vice President of Hockey Operations. ‘’Although no serious injury resulted,the action is unacceptable.’’

I haven’t been able to find the video either, in the highlights or on youtube. We’re spoiled these days.

As posted on HFboards by “MandyB” http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QWCsvHc83yY. Go to about 6:25. It’s not nearly as bad as Simon or Boulerice, but he is a repeat offender.

Is there video of this? I think this is the only of the fouls that have led to suspensions this season that I haven’t seen in a replay.
