UPD: Kassian suspended seven games for kicking Cernak

[zamler]

Chicken #### suspension should have been 15+.

I'm happy with 7

Should have been 10 at the very least, especially when you factor in that he's a repeat offender. 7 is a slap on the wrist.

7ame.

Next time they get hit, watch them cry like babies.

7 sounds about right, what a moron. Imagine being a greaser and having to convince yourself to like a player like him.

I was expecting 6, happy he got one more game

7 is a complete joke. Get that guy out of the game.

[Luder]

What a joke

[old-fart]

Can’t wait for someone to kick McD like that and the loser Coiler fans to call for lifetime suspensions.

I'm happy with the suspension. Seeing as Cernak wasn't injured, which has a lot of weight in the NHL's dubious process of administering suspensions, this is about as much as I was expecting.

Kassian getting suspended for 7 games is always good news.

[chemgear]

Pathetic.

[Mayo]

No Neal Kass or McD

Let's get these guys out of the playoffs

I hope this doesn't come back to haunt the DOPS. When Kassian snaps he has the ability to hurt somebody permanent. Hopefully this doesn't get viewed down the road as the "what if they had handled it properly then instead of slapping him on the wrist" scenario.

Think 7 is too light. Need to be in the double digit range of 10 at least.

Kassian is a dangerous player, and he JUST got suspended only a few weeks ago from his stupid impulses. If the NHL is not going to make it clear that he has to control his emotions by giving him a harsh incident, then they better not be surprised when he does something bad enough like the Bertuzzi incident that it becomes a embarrassing moment for the NHL.

[DeluxeMoustache]

That’s garbage

It was a kick upwards, away from the ice, leading with the blade. Kickboxing style.

They are telling players to test out wrist guards, and turn around and basically say this kind if kick is not that big of a problem

Player safety is a joke

[flamingred89]

7 games eh? That means he comes back to play the jets. Get your Kevlar ready Winnipeg.

[oldschoolcalgary]

Most Oilers fans are sycophants just like that pathetic whiner Staples.

if these actions were taken against the Oilers, they'd be screaming bloody murder... but because its St.Kassian, its "a hockey play"

Disgusting fanbase.

[DuffMan]

Stupid oilers

[manwiches]

Can someone compile some of the comments from the fans up north? I'm genuinely curious if they are as deluded as we think they are, or are there actually some objective opinions
