No suspension for Walker!!!
Just read on ESPN.com that Walker received only a $2,500 fine!!!! They rescinded the automatic 1 game suspension for receiving an instigator within the last 5 minutes after meeting with Walker.
Their GM states "We've been taking punches for 5 games so it was just a matter of time before we threw one back"
Coach Paul Maurice when asked about what Walker should expect after the punch "Sore knuckles"
This series just got a whole lot more interesting. I expect the B's to come out with a fire under their asses tomorrow night. And the 'Canes had better hope it's a close game throughout. If it's a blowout either way, watch out.
