wranglers Valimaki assessed automatic three-game AHL suspension for physical abuse of officials

https://twitter.com/user/status/1487686190643900420

Valimaki was involved in a post-whistle scrum with Ontario Reign captain Brett Sutter. The two have a history: Sutter injured Valimaki with a high hit back on Jan. 9, causing him to miss three weeks (he only just returned tonight).

After being restrained, Valimaki pushed the official wearing No. 38 (Alec Rounds) to try and get back at Sutter and the rest of the Reign. The play will go under AHL presidential review but there isn't much in terms of grounds for the automatic suspension to be overturned.

Like I said in the other thread, I don't think he's going to be in this franchise for very long. I don't think Sutter likes him, and he's a trade chip.

Doesn’t really look that bad. This is no Wideman incident. Nice to see Juuso playing with some passion.

RIP future recalls.

I mean the incident itself wasn't egregious, but for it to be Sutter of all players.. damn Juuso, why lol.

Isn't it nice when a 34 year old career AHL plug injures one of your top prospects with a dirty hit?

Even better when it's your head coaches kid.

That will help the Sutter-Valimaki relationship.

Be sure to watch the clip Scorp linked to of Sutter's hit on Valimaki that injured him for three weeks. I don't blame Juuso for being pissed, especially since missing most of January didn't really help his case for getting recalled any time soon.

Valimaki is far less mature than previously advertised.

this will have no impact on Darryl's relationship with Jusso
if anything, he will be happy to see Jusso has added some edge to his game

This doesn't seem that bad to me, unless he also had some colourful words for the ref.

Three games for that is laughable.

I was expecting something worse. They are going to suspend him three games for that?

Abuse of official? Really? That's weak. Seems more like abuse of authority there.

Looked to me like he was picking up his stick when it was over, not pushing through to get at anyone. My wife gives me a harder shove if I’m in the way of a cupboard while we’re cooking.
Maybe ‘excuse me’ in Finnish sounds like Fu** you

Wow, that's not what I was expecting from the description before I watched the video! That's worthy of a suspension? That is weak!

Geez Valimaki just on a bad run for a while now. He needs some good things to start happening.
