Either the kid learns from this and reigns it in or he gets the Raffi Torres treatment in the near future. I really don't care much either way.

Wasn't the meeting supposed to find out about the intent? Joke of a league. It just seem like Rempe has a slow processor. He can be such a useful player for us. Again joke of a league

I just wish the league was consistent. If Wilson and Bennett were getting 8 games too, then ok. For Rempe to get 8 when those guys don't get suspended at all feels like the league is picking favorites.

Wilson had a 20 game ban no?

Bennett basically being able to be a dirt bag incognito is valid though. How he's got only a single suspension in his career is mind boggling.

Being injured is relevant for DoPS suspensions. If Heiskanen had been seriously injured on the hit the suspension is probably longer than 8 games.

When it comes to the DoPS,it's tough to say what's really relevant or not with them nowadays

He's got some family to visit. He'll be back January 9th. Hold tight.

It matters to me in most cases. I hate when a guy is out injured for 60 games but the punishment is only 2 games. Will the Dallas player miss any games?

being injured or not doesn’t matter. It’s the action and intent that does. Just because the player was lucky enough to not be injured doesn’t make the offense any less terrible / gross.

I'm saying it matters to me not to the enforcement people.

If he keeps making stupid dirty plays and injuring opposing players, he's going to keep getting longer and longer suspensions. I'd say it's not rocket science, but with the amount of denial in here, maybe it is for some of you.

Looking forward to reformed Rempe.

Knee slide hits from now on .I'm not sure how many strides will equal one Knee Slide......the Rangers should look into that before we have another Avery rule applied .

It most certainly does matter considering the CBA says it does.

Did Buch get anything for crosschecking Mantha across the face in the Tom Wilson payback game?

I think he got 1.

I just confirmed that he got 1 game for that and he's also been suspended two games for head butting Lawson Crouse. So Buch is a two time offender.

Who did he hurt this time? Besides the feelings of the pearl clutchers who hate him?

Longest suspension for on-ice conduct since 2018. For a hit that resulted in no injury.

Wonder what Tom Wilson's intent was when he slammed Panarin's head into the ice twice within seconds. We all saw the action. The action was pretty clear. So then when Jimmy Dolan called Parros out the league got seriously into a huff and defended him and fined the Rangers. The next game against the Caps is the one Buch highsticked Mantha---a for sure suspension I would think in most cases anyway but not nearly the same level as what Wilson got away with which the league decided to defend.

And in the case last year of Bennett cold cocking and knocking loopy Marchand in the playoffs.....the league decided not to look at the play until after the next game in the series had already been played and because of that the league decided it was too late to suspend Bennett and one could ask two questions there 1) why didn't they take a close look right after it happened? and 2) why couldn't they suspend Bennett anyway?

And the answer to everything is they pick and choose and make things up as they go along however it pleases them.....but they don't like it when people think they're full of shit.
