Okay, outside of class D felonies, spitting on someone is the most disrespectful thing you can do to another human. Spitting on someone is an act in which the spitter is letting the spittee know that they are lower than the lowest of low, lower than dog shit, lower than people shit, lower than any type of shit on planet Earth. Now, some people argue that a bitch slap is more disrespectful, and although still pretty atrocious, a bitch slap is nothing compared to being spit on. I almost wish that this suspension was a suspension of choice. Erik Gudbranson should be able to make the suspension, whether it be 3 games or a no holds barred, tables ladders and chairs match in the middle of NHL ice. Let these two settle their own score and whatever happens, happens. I bet Erik would be happier if he were able to square up than a measly 3 game suspension that people will forget about 2 months from now. Either way, head on a swivel for whenever Hathaway is on the ice- guy has the greasiest loogies in the league and he’s not afraid to use them.
