No surprise here, as the NHL has determined Mike Richards will not be handed any supplementary disciplinary action for his hit on the Panthers‘ David Booth on Saturday night.
“Nothing is coming. Like I said last night, it’s unfortunate a young player gets hurt like that. But it happens sometimes.”
– Philadelphia general manager Paul Holmgren
Meanwhile, Booth has been released from a Philadelphia-area hospital and will return to South Florida today. Amen to that.
