Scheifele's Suspension: Reporter claims George Parros was looking to help the Habs
The Winnipeg Jets' season came to an end on Monday night as the Montreal Canadiens won the series in overtime. And there's nothing Mark Scheifele, the star forward, can do about it...
The NHL Department of Player Safety punished Scheifele for four games for charging Habs winger Jake Evans in the third period of Game 1's 5-3 loss. The Jets' offence dried up without Scheifele, and the team's offensive never recovered. Scheifele added this during the team's end-of-season press conferences:
«I thought I was going to be tried to be shut down by Phillip Danault and it was the department of player safety that shut me down so that definitely sucks.»

According to his piece, Parros aided the Habs in winning the second-round series and could potentially be considered for the Conn Smythe Trophy.
Brennan believes that a two-game sentence would have sufficed for Scheifele's act as the Jets' forward isn't a repeat offender, but that Parros has given him more games since his NHL career ended in 2014 with the Canadiens.
That's a bold comment from the reporter, who didn't hold back in condemning Parros in favour of Scheifele.
