The guys discussed the role or lack thereof for enforcers in the modern NHL game; what responsibilities players, officials, and the league have in incidents like this; and a similar situation between P.K. Subban, Jack Hughes, and Oliver Wahlstrom in a game between the New Islanders and New Jersey Devils.
