St. Louis Blues: Oskar Sundqvist Fine Against Chicago Ridiculous

The St. Louis Blues had a good, old fashioned rivalry game with the Chicago Blackhawks on March 8, 2020. The Blues won 2-0 and it was almost as good as the old days with the chippiness and there was even a fight.

What stirred the fight, however, was an accidental hand to the face. Now, the perpetrator of that hit, Oskar Sundqvist has been fined by the NHL Office of Player Safety.

The fact Sundqvist received any punishment is ridiculous. He was penalized and even that was questionable.

They called it elbowing when the elbow made no contact.
