Two Games For Chokeslamming Says Nothing About Mike Matheson's Intent, But A Lot About The NHL's
Panthers defenseman Mike Matheson has been handed a two-game suspension by the NHL for this slam on Vancouver’s Elias Pettersson, who is now out indefinitely with a concussion.

Mike Vrabel Doesn't Have A Quarterback So He'll Play Two Quarterbacks
