I mean, if you're going to suspend a guy, at least be honest about what happened.
Bellemare, all 6'0 200 pounds of him, who finished this season with 14 PIMs and 0 major penalties - fighting or other - in 72 games, who has 5 fights in 300+ career games, and who averages 21 PIMs/82 games is an enforcer? What an odd take.
