It's Bogosian's team

Bogosian needs to play 30 minutes a night to be effective

This might be a good gauge to see exactly how much value Risto brings to the table.

Because he's iron man, we wouldn't really find out

agreed but my guess is the defence gets really passive with him out

And if u wait to sign Jt as a ufa...

The 3rd line can be
Kane-Reinhart- (whoever)
Those 2 don't need to go to make room...
Moulson & Ennis do

I would sell my soul to get JT on this team lol

he needs to be healthy to be effective
but can he stop getting hurt?

I think the suspension is right but I'm probably the one

If it was Jack eichel getting hit like that and being concussed we would all ask for his head
- gerbe75pts

I said he deserved 2.

But how you can say 3 games when Thachuk throws and elbow at someone's face and Polak boards someone and they only get 2?

Again he got the extra game because he plays for the Sabres

Is he ever healthy, even when healthy is he really effective? Chicken or the egg

This got 2, I'm not sure how Risto got three

He just does it to get under peoples skin...

Are his eyes healthy? Because he thought the Penguins were his teammates

and in what world does Eichel have his head down counting ruts in the ice????

its a bullpoop suspension..... Hopefully the teams wakes up and wins the next three games now (just to piss you off Gerbe)

This may seem unbelievable but I wouldn't be. If Jack skated through the neutral zone with his head in his boots, he'd be getting cleaned up off the blueline once a game.

Bang, bang play, Risto is at fault, but this is the punishment you award if there is "intent to injure" or something more severe (from behind or elbow up). I don't think you can say there was intent or that he targeted the head (went high). To each their own though, I know if the roles were reversed some would want a much heftier fine/suspension. I just don't think I would. Game misconduct was fair.

Sorry missed a couple days, will stop barking about it.

I would've for Stamkos...
and Tavares > Stamkos

I thought he would get 2 so he got an extra one because he plays for the Sabres and not the Leafs or Bruins.
- Stripes77

........... Pfffft.

Polak just got two games for FAAAAAAAAAR less than what Risto did to Guentzel. Risto got off lightly for a poopty hit that has possibly ended someone's season.

This got 2, I'm not sure how Risto got three

- mattmoulson[url]

The Flyers have a lot of pull with the league, as does Boston, Toronto, Chicago, etc

Risto got the extra game cause he plays for Buffalo.

Pretty hard to see how Risto's hit was more guilty than this.

- Stripes77

Exactly, because you have nothing to say to defend Risto's BS hit.

The fact that you're trying to play the "because it's the Sabres" card is pretty pathetic, in fact, baseless.

Sure glad Risto won't be around for Saturday though!

Right because driving a guy face first into the boards isn't a dirty hit...

Risto tried to Kronwall a guy it's his own fault had he been hitting him straight on it wouldn't have happened, but a guy going head first into the boards, or throwing an elbow at someones head only gets 2 there is no way you can justify giving 3 to Risto when he doesn't have a history.

Piss me off ?

You mean to tell me if that hit happen too Jack you wouldn't want the book thrown at that player

And it's basically 4, because he missed almost all of the game.

For someone who thought the misconduct was fair, the suspension is BS

Whatever it's not like we're in the playoffs or anything it's really not that big of a deal

Helps the tank

The 4 game thing doesn't sit with me because that's the call made on the ice. Whether he did it in the 1st, 2nd, or 3rd it doesn't matter to me as much.

It's the supplemental discipline that's BS.

A non hockey play like trying to take of someone's head with their stick like Nyquist did only gets 6 games but a timing play gone wrong gets 3 when a blatant elbow to the head gets 2 and boarding a guy face first (while tracking him the whole way mind you) only gets 2 as well.
