We all
know the biggest sport in Europe is Soccer (Football), well,
Havlat is from Europe, so, this makes sense doesn't it?
The
NHL has handed Ottawa forward Martin Havlat a five-game
suspension for kicking Boston's Hal Gill during Saturday
night's game between the Senators and Bruins.
Havlat was not penalized on the
play, but the kick was duly noted by the NHL's hockey
operations department and the league reviewed the kicking
incident late Saturday evening.
Gill was not injured, and the Bruins
reportedly did not file a complaint during or after
the game. The incident led to a fight between Gill and
Senators forward Chris Neil. |

Working against
Havlat on the decision was that he previously received a two-game
suspension from the NHL for kicking defenceman Eric Cairns
when the big blueliner was a member of the New York Islanders.
