players put up money on the board for wins, if a player is going home he will put $100 or something on the board for a party for the players. ive never seen a bounty before, doesnt mean it doesnt happen.

I call B.S on all this. I’m sure threats were made on ice. Or some dumb text through players. To insinuate a staff member or owner behind this is laughable. Some on this board should write for the Young and the Restless. The league has to due diligence and Barrie is behind this.

There could be an unofficial bounty. One that isn’t actually stated (ie. money on board).
Back in the day, after a Jacob Kindl clean hit on Robbie Drummond that left him concussed (head hit glass), it was “Get Kindl Night” in London. It was obvious from a mile away what was happening. Multiple attacks on Kindl all night long.
A little further back in the day, after a Ryan Thompson sucker shot on Derek Roy that left Roy with an eye injury, it was “Get Thompson Night” during a playoff game in Guelph. What was happening was also obvious from a mile away. Multiple attacks on Thompson all night long.
Both scenarios were something to see really. I’m not saying there was an official bounty put on Kindl or Thompson, but make no mistake, it was retribution night in both instances.

Didn't seem to really bother Aitcheson at the game when he sat out. Was mucking that Nacho pretty good and freely walked up and down the stairs in the stands without an ounce of worry! Williamson finally has a losing team to work with and is using all angles.

If anyone watch hockey, sometimes you need to answer the bell from previous game, this isn’t anything new.

you can answer the bell without cash on your head. if your team is good it shouldnt need a cash bonus to do the right thing for a teammate.

I’m not talking about cash on head. I’m talking about answering the bell.
I’m not talking about bounty. This poster said an unofficial bounty? I’m saying this happens all the time retribution the next game.

Call it what you want but if you dig deep enough you will see one of our players apparently posted on a group chat a 100.00 reward for whoever takes his head off and it was matched. It was shared by an affiliate. I will say no more but if you dig deep enough you will find what I did. Is it true? Decide for yourself. Someone seems to have some inside information no names unless you can get in the group chat.

That's likely what happened. No cash involved, some players probably let Aitcheson know (on the ice) that he had to answer the bell the next night although he did fight Collins right after the hit in question. I don't trust that Williamson is telling the full truth here, just like with the Soo trade at the deadline

Well, I don’t know more about it than anyone else but I thought it would be a player right away. I think it’s plausible to assume which player we might be talking about. I’m not sure where the idea of staff being involved comes from but again this is all new to me. Anyone have any idea what the discipline would be if proved true?

WIth social media these days they can trace it, should they decide to investigate. Look at what's happening in the London trial.

Quite a few lawyers, judges, jurors and conspiracy theorists here.

We will indeed. Seems like you guys have problems of your own and potentially more serious ones at that poppa.

This is the world we live in now. Everyone on social media is a Saint. Many moons ago I remember the Habs offering a cash bonus for every hit on Gretzky in a playoff round. It was all over the press. They never paid out a nickel and he had something like 11 points in three games. It was a year when the round was best 3 out of 5 I believe. A lot of what is said now is taken out of content. Fans can say someone should take a players head off and it's laughed at. If a player says the same he is painted as a terrorist in social media circles by all the people throwing stones.
It’s less about context than lessons learned.
It was only weeks ago that the OHL ruled a throat slash warrants a 5 game suspension; and spitting twice is two games, though the player is still allowed to participate in a CHL showcase.
Times have changed. It’s a lot of change for me to accept, but the players have to accept the rules and abide by them.

supplemental discipline is a joke when a hand gesture is punished more severely than actual violence committed by repeat offenders.
