[Suspension] 3 Games for Kassian

He deserved it, but can Gillis now take this tape to Sheriff Shanny every time a Sedin is plowed into the boards in the same way?

Definitely not the same manner of hit, but, where's the suspension/penalty on the "clean hit" from behind on Daniel during the Heritage Classic. No outdoor game is complete without a star getting injured

Clean check on Daniel Sedin. Not a hit from behind. Just bad luck. Staying the course for this atrocious season.

I guess that's fair but I don't even know if it was suspension worthy, yes the hit was bad but it was also Dillons fault. He stopped turning. If he kept turning like kassian anticipated then it would have been fine but he stopped. Kassian looked like he tried to pull up but couldn't. I disagree and I don't think he left his feet.

You mean the one that failed to make any contact with Sedin? lol.

well considering that Dillon played on the subsequent 5 min major penalty with no injury and kassian was tossed from the game I personally find a multi game suspension for a hit that did no damage at all a little overkill and inconsistent (suprise suprise)

If the league is basing the suspension on "the hit could have had a worse outcome" well Lupul's elbow was nothing but a vicious attempt to injure that failed spectacularly on multiple camera angles. If intent over outcome is what is punished Lupul's was worse.
