No suspension for Horton… ends shortest controversy of playoffs

Nathan Horton’s a free man for Game 7.

Via CSNNE.com:

The St. Petersburg Times reported on Twitter that Bill Daly, the NHL’s deputy commissioner, said there will be no punishment for either Horton or the Tampa Bay Lightning for end-of-the-game incidents after Game 6 in Tampa Wednesday night.

“Based on what I know now, I don’t expect any action of any kind,” Daly wrote in an e-mail to the Times Thursday. 

Damn. We didn’t even get to finish our “Free Horton” signs.

No word on what Boston will give fans to throw at players tomorrow night, though. Suggestions?
