cory40 Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 3 games is what I think he will get! Seems like the league wants to send a message. Anything less is kind of a waste. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If anything was to be learned from 2011, it's that reliance on refereeing will only lead to frustration and anger. You can only count on yourself to be consistent. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokes Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 (edited) Benning really needs to get an agitator to draw the other team's frustrations away from our stars. We need players of the Matt Cooke or Jarko Ruutu or Burrows before the Sedin line elk. Edited October 15, 2018 by smokes 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlyLow_ Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 This is why I wanted Zack MacEwen on the team. He's been one of Utica's best players so far, put granny at Center and call up the big fella. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He needs to ensure no other rookie goes down needlessly because the hired help weren't given the green light to bolster confidence and unity through an emboldened defense of a teammate. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
khay Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 4 hours ago, coolboarder said: My hope is that they would hand him a 5-game suspension for an in-phone hearing, not 2 to 3 games. Even for a first-time offender, this is also a no-no body slam and it's a common sense that you don't disrespect any players with that move and it's akin to slew foot where I have seen players been suspended for. The malicious intention is there and this shouldn't be a 2 to 3 gamer. If the league decides to hand him 5-gamer, it will also send a message across the league that anything extra is subjected for a review as video evidence are there and players should have some respect for each other and a hit is enough but nothing more. You do not want to let players get away with some "extra" leading to injury, put action to a stop right there and players will have to think twice before doing that. Only dumb players would do that if the message has already been sent in the first place. Should be at least 3 games but given the history of DOPS, it will be 0 or 1 game. Anything higher than 1 game will shock me. 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope he is eventually good enough to play for Vancouver full time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Putgolzin Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 the morning show guys (during the linden ad) mentioned that Pettersson won't play on Tuesday. I wonder if that's confirmed somewhere or if they were just talking their opinions as facts? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
