Sounds like there is going to be a hearing according to Helene

Hi Shellz, can you post a link? Would love to get some details on that.

Disregard, found it. https://twitter.com/helenenothelen

I think this is what Shellz is referencing

Helene Elliott ‏@helenenothelen 12m
Am expecting NHL to soon announce there will be a hearing for Torres on Stoll hit.

 

[Arrhizal]

Okay, it's almost 12 where you're at. When can we expect the hearing and a decision?

Its almost 10am you mean

 

[Arrhizal]

I guess the board has a EC bias. ;D Just went with the default post time dates.

Haha, that they do. We should hear more about it soon.

Doesnt a hearing mean automatic suspension?

Confirmation. Torres will have a hearing.

Get him Shanaban!

 

[Ron*]

I am predicting a two-game suspension.

I really liked that we didn't have to face this psycho last season against Phoenix.

Last night's Stoll hit confirmed my long-held belief this guy should not be allowed to play in the NHL.

After the 25 game suspension last year, one has to imagine it would be at least 5

Given his history, I'm expecting more. I wouldn't be surprised if he was gone for 3-6 games.

 

[ScoreZeGoals]

I think it's gotta be close to impossible for Torres to get a one or two game suspension with his history

 

[Papa Mocha 15]

Get him Shanaban!

"Ahh man...". He really does look like Butters.

 

[Reclamation Project]

Can we just get rid of this POS once and for all? FFS NHL!

 

[Deleted member 93010]

Is there any news on Stoll?

 

[Captain Mittens*]

Is there any news on Stoll?

Considering what he have heard on Greene and Clifford?
We ain't gonna hear ****!

 

[Captain Mittens*]

• In summary, this was an illegal check to the head
• Stoll was ultimately injured as a result of this hit (did not return for the third period)
• Torres has been suspended during his career

Kerry Fraser's take
http://www.tsn.ca/nhl/story/?id=423221

Fraser and Shanahan usually see things exactly the opposite so we'll see...

 

[Omni Owl]

He shouldn't just be suspended for the series, I want him gone from the league for good. He only exists to injure, and he'll keep doing so until something is done about it. **** him....

 

[Thrice]

Here's Torres history:

This article came out before his 25 game suspension.

 

[DAkings20]

League requested an in person hearing meaning 5 or more is possible.

 

[Nefarious]

Was just looking at some of these.



and



There's something seriously wrong with this guy.

I don't understand how some can say this is a clean hit, I mean his shoulder nails the head. How is that clean??? And it is far from full body hit. Jeez.

 

[CowMix]

Is it just me or does it seem like the main board hate Brown more than Torres?

What has Torres ever won?
