[QUOTE="Alx_Casket:1060650"]As reported by Steve Conroy at the Boston Herald moments ago: The NHL and NHLPA have agreed this morning to immediately implement the new ban on blindside headshots and it was welcome news to the Bruins, who lost top center Marc Savard to a textbook headshot from the Penguins’ Matt Cooke on March 7. There will be no immediate implementation of the on-ice rule, but players who give blindside blows to the head are now subject to supplemental discipline. “It’s going to make a change,” said Patrice Bergeron, an outspoken critic of such hits. “I don’t think it’s going to stop the physicality of the game. It’s still going to be a physical game and there are still going to be good hits. It’s just those kinds of hits that are right to the head and are careless and there’s no need for it, there’s a rule in place now and hopefully everyone’s going to think about it.” Coach Claude Julien concurred. “I don’t think there are too many people that will argue against it,” said Julien. “I think the players want a little bit of security when it comes to that. What I personally like about the rule is there’s responsibility for both sides. You can’t expect a player carrying the puck to be able to see what’s behind him, but at the same time it puts responsibility on the puck-carrier. If you’re going to have your head down and you get hit head on, it’s your responsibility. They’re not taking the hits out of the game. I think it’s an important part of our game. They’re putting the responsibility – and I think it’s the right responsibility – on both players.”…. Trent Whitfield is up from Providence and was slotted between Milan Lucic and Miroslav Satan. Vladimir Sobotka did not skate, though Julien said he was feeling better and has not been diagnosed with a concussion… Tuukka Rask will be between the pipes again and Matt Hunwick and Brad Marchand are expected to be scratched again.
