Nurse DoPS hearing for cross checking Quinton Byfield - suspended 1 game (Mod Warning Post #136)

[A1LeafNation]

I wonder how many games Kadri will get...

 

[hangman005]

I'll be surprised if he gets one game.

The league doesn't want punish the Oilers that much

 

[JohanFranzenstein]

Scumbag move from a scumbag player.

 

[ijuka]

One game suspension incoming.

 

[notbias]

Should have just grabbed him and judo tossed him backwards onto his head it's a legal play according to about all the whiners talking about suspension in this thread.

Close your eyes next fight.

 

[ManofSteel55]

0-3

It's very likely it's 1-3 after this year. We aren't playoff ready. LA is.

I wouldn't see an issue with a suspension for that. One game.

I would be shocked if they give him any playoff games for it though.

[Forgot About Drai]

Cant be right. Should be 5 games + an assault charge...

 

[Old Boys Club]

I will be phoning the Montreal Metro Police department and filing charges, this is unacceptable.

 

[Blitzkrug]

Realistically should probably be 2 games minimum. Sits the regular season finale and then misses at least game 1 of their series because i'm not sure you want him out there to give the Kings an excuse to want blood.

 

[Draiskull]

Binnington's assault on Perry was similar but worse. He chopped down Perry with blocker to back of his head and then jumped on him while Perry was down. Most of HF loved it.
What Nurse did was pretty tame compared to it. Nurse should miss the same number of games that Byfield misses which is hopefully 0 playoffs games for both.

Dude needs therapy or something to get control of himself. I'm still mad about the headbutt against Danault.

One can say that the Oilers will also get an excuse to want blood if Byfield suits up in a playoffs game while Nurse is suspended.

That was some crazy indeed.

Or maybe nurse can grow a brain and quit being a goon.

We know that isnt possible. He would command 9M per if he had a brain...

oh wait...

One, and only one, could say that.

 

[Dirtyclapper]

The fact he's got a hearing and a multiple offender it's going to be at least 3 because we all know the last game is pointless and would have been possibly sitting out anyways

Tempers flare as short-handed Oilers thumped by Kings in pre-playoff dust-up

"We’re not out there to hurt anybody. Let’s move on.” After a mild war of words, the Oilers and Kings will indeed move on after L.A.'s win Monday night that left no one surprised and no one particularly concerned.

Corey perry is certainly one to talk..

What a joke. They knew what they were doing.

 

[tny760]

The fact he's got a hearing and a multiple offender it's going to be at least 3 because we all know the last game is pointless and would have been possibly sitting out anyways

but also according to the dops (in precedent, anyway) 1 playoff game is worth 2 regular season

it's just too easy to sit him for the last regular season game and move on, and we know how much the dops loves easy

 

[FlameChampion]

Oilers fan but he probably deserves 2 games just for making a dumb decision at a unnecessary time. What a doofus.

 

[ToDavid]

Bit of a message? What’s the message, none of your actions will have any really consequences?

 

[McShogun99]

You never know what this league and the refs will do. It could be anywhere from ignored by the refs to a 5 game suspension. This league has no consistency. Any cross check above the shoulders should be an automatic 5 minute penalty but half the times the refs don't even call it.

 

[kingsholygrail]

"Bit of a message." What message? That's not even a punishment.

 

[Fripp]

Oh for christ sake, quit defending a dirty ass play

But he's pulling off the "enlightened centrist" routine so well.

 

[Ollie Weeks]

Bit of a message? What’s the message, none of your actions will have any really consequences?

Thanks, Darren. What’s George having for dinner?

 

[Raccoon Jesus]

I mean if they do nothing or just one regular season game they're saying go ahead, if you're losing a playoff game by a few goals, just play your 4th line and take some majors

these teams have played each other more than anyone in any sport over the last 4 years, dops would be wise to try to get ahead of it a little, and edmonton was smart to test the boundaries of dops stupidity
