Bruins Recall Kampfer from Providence

by Ryan Durling on Jan 21, 2012 4:22 PM EST

He'll join the team tonight for the trip to Philly and Washington. We all know what this means.

Looked bad enough for 1 or 2 games to me. The league’s been throwing the book at us lately so it’s probably twice that.

Having said that when you’re not arguing if a hit is suspendable or not but how long the suspension is you’ve lost that argument badly.

Yeah I’m thinking 3-4, probably 3. I feel like it’s going to be a suspension.

For Horton!

It wasn’t really dirty in my opinion.

I dont see the hit as dirty. If Ference had been skating slower I dont think it would be an issue. Prust’s boarding was a lot more physical and just as dangerous IMO. So in conclusion, I would understand a fine, but dont think a suspension is warrented. But I won’t be at all surprised if/when he is suspended.

Agree!

If Ference didn’t wear a black and gold sweater there wouldn’t even be a hearing IMO.

I think the B’s have a giant target on their backs and Shanahan is going to give no benefit of the doubt to anyone.

I think the 4 and a game-especially since the team lost-is enough, but then I haven’t cared much for Shanahan’s decisions regarding the B’s since the make up suspension of Lucic.

Who's getting sent down?

Hamill or Caron?

At that OT point of the game, I was in the car but judging from what I heard, we’re looking at a suspension.

Kick his ass, Seabass!

It sounded worse than it was...I will grant you that....

However, anything more than a game or two would be absurd

And all game I figured it was gonna be Lucic running Girardi that was going to be the dumb play.

10am phone hearing, so no more than 5. I’ve seen MEDIA suggesting he get 4-7 games which is a little ridiculous.

totally ridiculous!

I am getting tired of us

being singled-out and punished while the rest of the NHL goes with business as usual. BS!
I thought Shanahan had balls, apparently he doesn’t

by pemci on Jan 22, 2012 10:08 AM EST reply actions

Marchand 5 games...totally ridiculous!

Lucic for his one game, while the player got in a fight seconds later…

It looks like the NHL’s wheel of justice is back, where you ever know what will lead to a suspension and what won’t lead to one.

I think this is just another layer of adversity for the team to overcome. I tried a half-ass attempt at finding team totals of suspended games for this season. I found that the Bruins are the most penalized at 15.7 min/gm. (Philly #2 w/ 15.2-could make today interesting)

True...just another adversity for the team to overcome....

Thanks for the stats…interesting.. :)

Wikipedia 2011-12 NHL suspensions and fines

I tried, again half-assed, to create a link to this page, but alas I stoopid.

by Pig Phister on Jan 22, 2012 2:14 PM EST up reply actions

Bruins and Flames are tied with the most suspensions this year. Each team has 3. Unsure about fines and hearings not resulting in suspension.

I know it would not help,

but Ference should give his Montreal one-finger salute to Shanahan

by pemci on Jan 22, 2012 10:17 AM EST reply actions

Lets not forget that Lucic wasn’t suspended for steamrolling Miller because Shanny said there wasnt any intent. Maybe the same can be said for the Ference situation? I’ll say it again, besides speed, Ference’s hit and Prust’s hit are the same.
