Risto 3 games is another reason why the NHL is joke, Polak gets 2 games and is a repeat offender and Risto gets 3. Brandon Manning is laughing his ass off now.

How many games had Polak been previous suspended prior to this hit and for what?

When is the last time Polak was suspended? I think the two games is right when he's been grounded

Haha yeah, brain fart. When the Sabres are a playoff team I could see us wanting to rest ROR

I would be fine with that but I think we would receive some fines from the NHL and plus he's still very very young

Polak is not a repeat offender

Exactly, because you have nothing to say to defend Risto's BS hit.

The fact that you're trying to play the "because it's the Sabres" card is pretty pathetic, in fact, baseless.

Sure glad Risto won't be around for Saturday though!

Think this is more about the $90K they fined him?

Boy... just saw the Polak hit. What a scumbag, eh? Two games is not enough for that type of dirty chit, should have got 10. Can't defend that type of classless move.

They fined him.? Did not know that that's pretty ridiculous

Risto hit a player who's gaining a reputation for keeping his head down and getting lambasted.

I'm of the opinion that the guy playing with his head down is more dangerous to the game than the guy trying to demolish someone with a hip check in anticipation.

I blame Girgensons for tipping the pass. He's the one who should be suspended.

Takes out Eichel, and now Risto. Girgs is the new Weber, or is he the new McBain?

And Sid the Kid is still one of the dirtiest players I have even seen play the game. Guy gets away with nut-shots and slashes like he's the star of the league or something.

I wouldn't say the dirtiest but he is one of the biggest babies. He does some dirty crap though but he isn't on Marchand's level.

So when's the hearing for Crosby purposely spearing O'Reilly in the balls? Oh yeah there will be none and this is why the NHL is a laughingstock? Stripes, oh defender of referees, why is spearing someone's balls not a penalty and not a dispensable act?

I don't even know what constitutes a penalty anymore?

With a nose like that, no one's on Marchand's level of weaselry.

Anything not a hook, grab, or slash is now a penalty.

Seruous question. Aren't you guys trying to tank (somewhat) though? Isn't the suspension in the best interests if the team long term?
