Well they have a record showing his repeat status now (and very recent), so you have to think they should have him on a short leash now, no?
He probably should have had a suspension by now, from at least one of his transgressions...but the league has always treated it's "stars" differently, and like it or not, Benn is a "star" that they want in the games...
If he commits another foul warranting supplemental discipline, there would have to be a suspension, right???? Hopefully the threat of that alone will neuter him further (Lucic already started the job!!!).
It's akin to a soccer player being on multiple yellow cards, getting another forces them to miss the next game.
