So generally I hate these super generic catch-all threads because they suck big news in and it just gets lost, but at the same time the Tampa/Florida game the other night was crazy and it needs somewhere to be mentioned, but probably not big enough for its own thread so here we go with the 2025-26 Out of Town Thread.
NHL Supplementary Discipline seems to be consistently inconsistent. These teams already have some bad blood, with Ekblad injuring Hagel in the playoffs last year. He didn't even get a penalty on the play but did get suspended after (a rarity for a player on a Gregory Campbell team).
Then on Oct. 2, AJ Greer hit Hagel, then sucker punched him starting a melee. He got a fine. So two nights later, all hell broke loose. Two minutes in, Scott Sabourin labeled Ekblad, and when he got up, punched him a couple times. Ekblad left the game, Sabourin got a match penalty. Five minutes later, Roman Schmidt cross-checked Verhaeghe and got 5 and a game. 40 seconds after that, Verhaeghe hit Girgensons from behind and got a major and a game misconduct (no supplementary discipline). Six minutes later and Moser drilled Boqvist from behind and got his own major and ejection. Then there was a period and a half of fighting (punctuated by Florida Panthers goals - they won 7-0). Four minutes in to the third, Mikkola got his own game misconduct. He didn't leave, and assisted on a goal later - which was struck off the board and he was finally sent away. There were twelve game misconducts, 6 10-minute misconducts and two match penalties (Bjorkstrand also got a match 4 minutes in to the third).
The supplemental discipline after that game: For Tampa - Schmidt & Goncalves got fined. Sabourin and Moser have hearings and will end up getting suspended. For Florida? Nothing. Not even a fine for Verhaeghe for his hit from behind.
No one hurt either - Ekblad is apparently practicing and expected to play the season opener.
All that said - I hope that teams target the Panthers relentlessly this year. They are such a dirty team and get given so much latitude to get away with it, the only real solution is to fight fire with fire. If it means a couple of guys get a night off, oh well. It's just the regular season.
There's a stretch where they play Tampa (Nov 15), Edm (Nov 22) and Toronto (Dec 2). All teams they played in the playoffs, all teams that they did despicable things against. I'd love to see them just have two weeks of hell, and deal with a lot of bruises from that.
