What??
That's ridiculously stupid. Sit 2 of your best players and most physical player at home in a very winnable game.
Sheer stupidity. There are better ways to send a message than that. Just fine them for crying out loud.
Have we given up on the season already??

Wow. Unbelievable. Scratch your two best forwards for off ice reasons....I guess they've officially given up on the season.
Where's Polak chirping Hartley, I want to thank his post

If we're going to throw a game like that, might as well just cheer for a Flames loss tonight.

As @RealKyper suggested, Gaudreau, Monahan, Bouma likely out of CGY lineup tonight for disciplinary reasons. May be playing 11 F and 7 D.

If those three do get sat for disciplinary reasons, Granlund and Colborne return. Nakladal would debut too, as #Flames would go with 7 D.

Again this is barely a lesson. Sitting out and eating popcorn from the press box? That's like the NHL equivalent of sending a kid to their room with an iPad and Xbox. It has it's uses for on ice issues so players can watch the game and try and apply what the coaches are telling them and sending a message but just as a punishment?
Bag skate them or something. Don't punish the fans by sitting one of the only reasons to go to a Flames game.

It's like you don't understand what motivates a pro athlete...

Why?
If those three did something against team policy, then this is the punishment. It doesn't mean it's the end of Gaudreau and Monahan in Calgary, it means a 22 and 21 year old made a mistake. Hopefully a mistake they learn from.

I was fully expecting to see Johnny with 4 or 5 points tonight to exploit a crap Leafs team. Thanks a lot Hartley. Wonder if I can boo the guy from where I'm sitting.

Wasn't the report that they got to the rink at 10:15 for a 10:30 practice? I know in professional hockey that's considered late, but they would have still been on the ice in time for practice correct? So it's not like they actually missed any of the practice.
Seems a bit harsh of a punishment in my opinion.

So they made it to a 10:30 practice at 10:15 and they're getting scratched for a team desperate to get some points?
ok
I guess he's gotta get Colborne more top line minutes somehow.

A lot of fans pay top dollar just to come and watch when the Leafs come to town. And they aren't necessarily Leafs fans either.
Again, just sheer madness. This is not right at all. Very poor judgement call by Hartley.

Most teams have video sessions or meetings before the hitting the ice - that is most likely why they are being punished
