The NHL came down soft on Los Angeles Kings forward Jordan Nolan.
Nolan, who brutally sucker punched Edmonton Oilers winger Jesse Joensuu after a whistle Sunday night, was slapped with nothing more than a one-game suspension.
Fans in Boston might not be happy with this penalty, as Bruins enforcer Shawn Thornton was suspended 15 games for a similar act earlier this season.
Check out the video below for further explanation on Nolan’s suspension.
