Will the League Review Matt Cooke’s hit?
The Phoenix Coyotes were furious after last night’s game regarding Matt Cooke’s hit on defenseman Keith Yandle, with players saying that “he better get a suspension for it”.
While there has been no confirmation that the Coyotes have asked the league to review the hit, I spoke with Cooke’s agent Pat Morris this morning and…
Morris told me that as of 11:00 a.m., he has not received any notice from the league that they are reviewing the hit.
Yandle sounded off after yesterday’s game.
“It’s just a dirty hit,” Yandle said of the hit. “Dirty player. He’s got no respect. … He better get a suspension for it.
“His only intent is to try to hurt me with his hands high. I just hope that [league officials] review it.”
