AtlantaHotWings 1,046 Report post Posted May 24, 2023 I have no issue with the initial tangle up and had Benn thrown him to the ice etc ...totally okay. I don't think dropping down and drilling the guy is needed. Benn basically did almost the same maneuver on Larkin's neck and if memory serves me correct didn't get diddly as far as penalty or suspension. Benn uses that stick like its the hammer of Thor. They should let Benn play but he plays the first period without a stick and Vegas is allowed to play whack a mole with him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kipwinger 8,610 Report post Posted May 24, 2023 Evil Jamie Benn nearly decapitates Mark Stone with his barbarian club only days after bloodthirsty Joe Veleno practically severed Nino Niederreiter's leg with his foot sword. Hockey must be reigned in for it's own good. Just think of the impact on the children. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kipwinger 8,610 Report post Posted May 24, 2023 (edited) Benn's punishment will come pretty swifty I suspect. Remember that he's been in management's doghouse for a while. Anybody remember the Jim Lites comments about Benn and Seguin? Lites is old friends with Jim Nill and the two were more or less raised in hockey together. Not hard to surmise that Lites' comments may well closely reflect those of Nill. At the time of those comments Dallas' owner was also apparently very unhappy with the duo. If Dallas loses their next game, resulting in a sweep, and their Captain wasn't on the ice for (more or less) two of those losses he's toast as the captain of the team. He's clearly about to get suspended. Imagine getting suspended, losing pay, losing your captaincy, losing the respect of your teammates for not being on the ice, and watching your team lose in the the conference finals from the pressbox...all based on one stupid play? That seems sufficiently punitive. Edited May 24, 2023 by kipwinger Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

How will the league respond to an attempted murder at an internationally sanctioned hockey game and how did Greg Kruppa "get it right" despite talking about a whole different on-ice incident? I'm sure one of your dozens and dozens of fake accounts will be sure to let us know. And there's absolutely nothing pathetic about that at all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
