First time offense, it sucks. Hopefully Boeser comes back soon
Yeah well
I wish it was more for such a blatant headshot
Seems like the fact he has no prior suspension history comes into play here
I wish they could make it so that two of the games have to be against the Canucks.
This seems pretty fair relative to the NHL wheel of justice.
These kind of plays should be punished more severely, but knowing the league this could have easily just been a $5k fine.
That blatant should be more imo but considering how fucking terrible DOPS is with other calls I guess we should be glad he was suspended at all and not just fined.
Why does the league do such small suspensions? Suspended him for a month, these 1-3 game suspension do nothing to discourage players, it’s barely a consequence at all.
As expected.
Before those come rushing in saying it should be much longer (like it should), they factor in history. Jeannot has no history.
My contention is the league needs to be punishing these hits heavily to get head hunting out of the game. 41 games. But that’s not the league we’re in.
First time offense, and technically 4 games because it was so early in the game last night. Very fair.
Also not too long that the Kings benefit from having him out of the lineup lol.
Well, not long enough for such a hit, but longer than I was expecting.
I bet players would stop taking headshots if they had to get concussed as a penalty as well. I’m obviously making a tongue in cheek joke but it just seems so unfair for some players’ careers to be put in danger by some predatory guy making a bad hit and all that happens to them is they lose some pocket change. Hoping boesers doing ok.
Hope Jeannot gets Bertuzzi’d soon
At least it was 3, would’ve preferred more but this is the minimum number I can be content with.
Also forfeits almost $42k of pay.
Should be five games for a blatant late shot like that
Hopefully Brock isn’t out too long but the suspension should go hand in hand with how long Brock is out
As much as I would love to see some retribution, I worry that we don’t have anyone who could dish out the retribution. Worst case scenario would be someone getting injured from getting their ass whooped by Jeannot
any word on Brock?
Though I feel it should be worth 10 games, seems like most were predicting either 2 or 3, so at least we were on the high side…
Does anyone know if Boeser is on concussion protocol or if there’s any update that’s been released?
Not only was it an obvious headshot… he was grinning/laughing after
I really hope Myers gets a chance to introduce Jeannot’s face to the boards on Jan 16, like he did with Duncan Keith ..
It’s fair IMO. He missed most of the game last night as well and they also got the call right on ice which is nice to see

Shitty, but now we can move on
