Yeah, that makes sense. Didn't like the hit in the moment, don't like it in replay, and a suspension seems fine. I'd bet *spins wheel* 2 games?

*looks at Flames record without Pospisil*

3-12-1?

Team tank:



Pospisil just needs to clean this hit out of his game. This is the type of hit that is going to get him punched in the head.

Yeah that one was definitely over the edge. Should be a few games.

It looked like Dunn was hit on the right hip and right elbow. Not the most egregious backside or blindside hit. He was not hit in the numbers. I think 5 and a game should have been enough.

Hard to say. Anything is Pospisil.

We all love him with Zary and Kadri but he needs to reign in the aspect of his game for the safety of other players and for not putting our own team at a man disadvantage.

I don't understand how a player who has suffered so much from head injuries/concussions before would not be cognizant of the dangers for opposite side for other players. Sure there is the heat of the battle but he knows himself how awful these situations are.

I'd give him a game or two, but Dunn needs to do a better job of not turning.

To me this is a accumulation suspension.

That's the third time Pospisil has been tossed from a game. He's going to get a 2 game suspension here just as a bit of a "tone it down" warning.

Said last night he'll likely get and extra game tacked on, stand by it.

I'll defend the Larsson hit in the 1st, but the Dunn hit in the 3rd is the exact kind of hit you don't want to see.

Yeah a short suspy for Pospisil, not a good hit at all. I’m curious what was going through Dunn’s head though:

“Im just gonna sit here, 2 feet away from the boards and not skate or pass the puck, sure hope no one touches me”. What was the plan here? Odd play on his part.

I'm trying to remember the third, but the Marchand punch was definitely not worth even a five and a game.
