Scott Nichol Facing Possible Suspension

via the Tennessean,

Predators center Scott Nichol is scheduled to talk with NHL officials here this afternoon and could face a suspension for the double-minor, high-sticking penalty he picked up in Montreal on Saturday.

Nichol was given the four-minute penalty late in the second period of the Predators’ 5-4 shootout victory, after officials whistled him for what appeared to be a crosscheck to the chin of Montreal defenseman Patrice Brisebois.

If the NHL doesn’t suspend him, Trotz should scratch him for a game or two.  It was a stupid reaction to Brisebois hitting him with an elbow, and almost a carbon-copy repeat of the spearing of Scott Hannan (sp?) in the playoffs last year that finished off their chance at a comeback vs. San Jose.

Amen brother. Stupid play. I was really surprised he wasn’t tossed at the time. Looks like we’ll get to see Hordi a bit…
