Flyers Carcillo Gets Four For One Punch

The NHL has suspended Flyers forward Dan Carcillo four games for his fight that earned him 19 penalty minutes and a game misconduct.

Carcillo landed a big punch on Washington's Matt Bradley as he dropped his gloves Saturday night. Bradley fell to the ice and was, pretty much, out on his feet. He had to be helped back to the locker room...

Carcillo was given two minutes for cross-checking, two minutes for instigating, five minutes for fighting, a 10-minute misconduct and a game misconduct in Philadelphia's 8-2 loss.

Actually, if you look at what went down, it's about right...

Here's the fracas, thanks to our friends at CSN...
Joe Beninati on the call...


Four games, though...??? Not so sure...
Those of us at OSG HQ think reputation helped out in that regard...
