MAJOR | Craig Button calls out the NHL and demands a major rule change
Noah Juulsen certainly started a big debate last night when he launched a massive hit on the Stars' forward Luke Glendening.
As the video shows it, Juulsen delivered a good and legal hit right to Glendening's chest. The new tendency in the NHL is to drop a player who delivers a big hit. However, a player that delivers a legal hit, should not be obligated to drop the gloves because of it.
It's exactly what happened last night when Faksa skated across the ice to have a fistfight with Noah Juulsen, here's the sequence:
Craig Button absolutely wanted to have a say on the subject and did not hold his comments back. He even provided a radical solution to completely eliminate these types of plays in today's game:
Button surely has his hands on something and perhaps the NHL should really think about implementing something of this sort. Players can't be forced to drop their gloves every time they deliver a solid hit. If the NHL were to announce a rule change like this one, would you be in agreement?
