Why did Nurse get an extra penalty after the fight? Couldn’t figure that one out. It’s not an instigator on the score sheet (which would have been ridiculous anyhow).
Fun game to watch. If the Oilers had not been trying to set up specific players in the last 10 minutes, that could have been a team record for shots. Pens look like a team on the way down…outside the old stars, there isn’t a lot there.

Nurse and the instigator penalty and any extra possible punishment seem to just go hand in hand.
99% of the time when 2 players agree to fight before a face off and drop them at the same time there is nothing extra. Kinda like how every game misconduct for a late game instigator is rescinded except for one time.

You are absolutely correct. I've never seen that either. Pettersson volunteered to scrap.. you can see them talking it just prior to the faceoff..
Nurse (and Edmonton) always get hit with the far extremes of any NHL ruling.. in the Oilers case.. be it for an on-ice infraction, trade rulings, GM interference, CBA ruling, or supplementary discipline from the DOPS.. the decisions are always at the extreme end (or beyond) of any precedent.
League bias.. the evidence is in the rulings history.. its not chance.. its beyond any statistical standard deviation ..
Starting to realize the NHL really hates Northern Canada.
