A lighter sentence than I originally thought. A 2 year ban from driving is not a suprise though.

Blake Speers (ex-Soo captain) recently received a $2000 fine and 12 month driving ban for a DUI (source: Linda Richardson, Soo Today, Feb. 26/25).
Speers was pulled over so not the same set of circumstances.
Speers considered model citizen.
Just sayin...

Allen's sentence fits what anyone would've gotten regardless of hockey ability, glad to see he pled guilty and didn't try and weasel out of it.

I couldn't believe Brantford is ahead of Oshawa in the standings.

Brantford is 5-2 against Oshawa this year and that’s the reason they’re in first place in the East.

Brantford has one ultra elite line and if you shut that line down, you’ve shut the entire team down. A well coached team can figure that out pretty easily. A poorly coached team is going to struggle with it.

He has already missed 10 games. League needs to finalize its decision quickly now that it’s through the court system. Player/team need/deserve closure.

It'll be interesting. In other cases discipline has happened while the player was accused, not yet convicted, and things were working their way through the system. I'd be surprised if he wasn't out the rest of the year and welcome to return next season. Mailloux was 4 months, Sept-Jan after it was settled.

Kitchener could get 106 I think.


Wow so he will be back for playoffs then likely?

I would bet he's back in 1-2 weeks MAX. -he took accountability for a really poor decision and wants to move on. All charges were dropped minus the DUI.
Pretty much bang on with how i said this would play out. Slap on the wrist and will play hockey before the playoffs
Glad they didn't take the Oshawa fans advice and give him Life behind bars.

One thing i want to add is I think the league as a part of his consequences for violating the league COC that they should mandate him to attend some kind of Alcohol education course.

I wasn't one that said life behind bars but I did say suspended for the whole season plus playoffs but that has nothing to do with me being an Oshawa fan. I'd ask the same if it was Sennecke, Ritchie, Oster, whoever.

As someone who has has been hit by a drunk driver and suffered injuries from it, I will always advocate for harsh punishment and I think his legal repercussions were soft.

We will see what the league does but based on the ruling, Id say he's back come playoffs if not before which we can agree to disagree if it's a fitting punishment or not.

This is the longest suspension list I've ever seen while following the OHL. Surprised the coaches only got 5 games.

Can anyone shed light on that new goal celebration that some players do where they swing their elbows out slowly as they skate towards the bench? What is that?

Kid made a bad mistake and compounded it by leaving the scene. That said, he has owned up to it and sentence has been handed down for the one charge with the others being dropped. Some say he got off lightly but I think he was dealt with as any other 20 year old with no history and no record would have been dealt with. I could see the league giving him a few more games and they should insist on him completing an alcohol education course of the league's choosing. An overall 15 game suspension including the 10 games missed already would seem about right imo and I would say that even if he was not a Knight
