Keeler: Avalanche center Nazem Kadri got last laugh on St. Louis Blues haters. But if NHL doesn’t suspend David Perron, somebody’s going to get hurt.

The NHL is awfully quick to throw the book at Nazem Kadri. But where the heck are they when some idiot throws an elbow at him?

Or a water bottle? Or something worse?

David Perron, Blues forward by day and tactless goon by night, should be suspended. Now. If not for Game 5 of Avs-Blues on Wednesday night at Ball Arena, when Colorado likely finishes what it started, then for the rest of this series.

“I don’t know if it was just about him,” Perron told reporters after the Avs’ 6-3 win when asked about Nazem Kadri, who notched three of those Colorado goals.
