@BillHoppeNHL: Mike Weber tells me he's back in. #Sabres

 

Meszaros and Benoit the likely scratches on D.

 

Enroth likely in net.

 

 

 

So this should be fun, eh?

This will not be a close game..... We just got outplayed by the freaking Oilers..... To think we come in and take out an elite team with this group is ludicrous.

 

God my optimism has completey left me

From that replay, it didn't seem like there was any malicious intent, it looked like a good game tap... If he gets suspended from that, then that official needs to change his tampon

Supposedly he was arguing an offsides call. The league hasn't commented on it so he should play tonight.

well that's good, there have been much worse that have happened, like that missed trip last night and the boarding on Nikita the other night

Yeah, but there have been a couple of articles suggesting that the suspension might be automatic:

hopefully he doesn't get the Carcillo treatment, it is buffalo tho.... I guess it really does depend on what he said tho.

I don't see how there's any defense for what Ennis did. Blue and gold blinders off. Ennis earns the automatic 10.

 

The context matters though, right? Say the Sabres were up 4-1 and the linesman is Ennis' old junior coach or something. There can be innocent contact, no?

 

Hi, Sybil, how're things today? ;)

Not sure what Ennis was thinking, that was dumb.

Ten, really ? I can see getting 3 (not that I'd like it ), but 10 games is a little harsh. Not saying it wasn't a stupid thing to do.

It's the minimum penalty set out in the rule book for what Ennis did.

They need to revisit the rulebook. He should be sitting two or three. The NHL decided that ten was inequitable, so he's not sitting any.

This topic is OLD. A NEW topic should be started unless there is a VERY SPECIFIC REASON to revive this one.
