Del Rio Posted September 23, 2013 Share Posted September 23, 2013 ah not that huge...only 5 games. We can't be so biased, he was pretty reckless with his stick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thad Posted September 23, 2013 Share Posted September 23, 2013 Maybe they're finally stiffening up. I'll reserve judgement till I see what the next 5 suspensions are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strombone1 Posted September 23, 2013 Share Posted September 23, 2013 So if he was a repeat offender he would've gotten the Torres treatment for a high stick? I hope they hand out something harsher to Kessel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nas19 Posted September 23, 2013 Share Posted September 23, 2013 So Weise hits a guy in the head and only gets pre-season games. While Kassian ACCIDENTALLY hits a guy in the face with a stick and gets 5 regular season games? So are they really saying that Kassian's play was equivalent to Duncan Keith's hit on Sedin? REALLY? Actually they're saying it's worse cause he also gets pre-season games. ???? typical. ???? typical NHL. What a ???? joke. They really need to get their **** together. ???? suspending a guy based on injury is ???? retarded. Weise's play was way worse than Kassian's, yet Kassian gets the book thrown at him cause he hurt a guy. They base suspensions way too much on injury. Basically you can do ???? ridiculous crap that is completely over the line but as long as no one gets hurt then it doesn't matter I guess. For example watch what happens to Kessel. He probably won't even get suspended yet he ???? looked like he was hacking down a tree. But because there was no injury I guess it's okay. Jesus ???? Christ. What the frack is wrong with this league? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stonecoldstevebernier Posted September 23, 2013 Share Posted September 23, 2013 Complete garbage. It was reckless and deserved something, but 3 preseason and 5 regular season games is excessive. But really, what do you expect, they're suspending by injury here. It's not like the league has ever had much of a standard in distinguishing the differences between intent-based and injury-based suspensions. If Kessel gets 5+ regular season games for his two handed, clearly intentional slashes then maybe I'll believe they're developing some small sort of consistency in their thinking. But does anyone think that'll actually happen? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canadiangunner Posted September 23, 2013 Share Posted September 23, 2013 Kassian's reckless act gets 5 games....Kessel's deliberate two hander (twice) should get 20 games?? What's worse being reckless or deliberate? Joke suspension, if there is no injury there is no suspension guaranteed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robongo Posted September 23, 2013 Share Posted September 23, 2013 For an accidental play.. Yet they give Keith only 5 games for a straight elbow to the face of our star player nowhere near the play. Absolutely brutal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
