Trouba got hit with a $5,000 fine, the max under the CBA, for that elbow to Rodrigues' noggin.
The refs originally called it a major penalty, but after a second look, they dialed it back to a two-minute minor. Trouba didn't seem too bothered by it.
Yeah, it all went down pretty quick. You're not exactly running through a thousand scenarios in your head. Stuff just happens in the heat of the moment, you know, hockey being hockey.
Some thought the penalty should've be a major but the play was reviewed and ruled a minor, despite pushback.
If you're a hockey analyst still tweeting the opposite angle to make Trouba appear dirty and Rodrigues injured you're not actually an analyst you're just trying to further your narrative.
The Rangers won 5-4 in overtime on Alex Wennberg's first goal as a Blueshirt.
