In a Spittin' Chiclets podcast, Paul Bissonnette and Ryan Whitney discuss the incident involving Jacob Trouba and Ryan Whitney. Clearly, the two don't agree on the decision made by the NHL Player Safety department. You can view the podcast excerpt here and observe Ryan Whitney's frustration with the department's decision.
Let us remember that after a recent clash between the New York Rangers and the Boston Bruins, defenseman Jacob Trouba faced repercussions, receiving a $5,000 fine from the NHL due to a high-sticking incident involving Trent Frederic. This fine represents the maximum permissible under the Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA) and was a direct response to the contentious on-ice action.
