The American Hockey League today announced that Adirondack Flames defenseman John Ramage has been suspended for two (2) games as a consequence of a boarding incident in a game vs. Iowa on Feb. 4.

Ramage was suspended under the provisions of AHL Rule 28.1 (supplementary discipline).

Ramage will miss Adirondack’s games Friday (Feb. 6) and Saturday (Feb. 7) vs. Utica.

That's fair. The hit was dirty. He had time to see the guy was vulnerable and chose to continue with it.

No qualms with this at all.

Yeah, ugly hit for sure.

More of a chance that Sieloff actually stays in the lineup for a couple of games?

Still involves sitting a guy because we have 7. Sieloff is the youngest of the group and least experienced, so I don't know if he makes it for both. Plus, it's the Comets for both games Ramage is suspended and Sieloff is a bit...fragile let's say.

Going through the sit options: I would prefer not to have Yonkman sitting for those games. Yes we have Grats, but we need a big body on the blueline for them. Acolaste would be another sit option, but he's been offensively minded the last few games, would rather not see him sat, we need all the offense we can get with the Comets. Comes down to Cundari or Sieloff. Two important games against the Comets that could basically mean the difference between barely a playoff spot and getting 1st in the North Division, sorry I go Cundari. His experience is hard to ignore.
