Caustic human trash being caustic human trash. Should have been longer than 5.

 

[Oil Dood]

The Oilers need to dump this toxic loser now. If coaches can be fired for it so should players.

 

[Filthy Dangles]

Well I just scoured the Ontario Reign's roster to try and figure out who the player was. im gonna assume the opponent in question was Bokondji Imama

Feels like this may have involved Bokondji Imama.

 

[ChaoticOrange]

Garbage person on top of a garbage player.

Send him home, tell him to stay there, and get the lawyers working on a breach of contract. Done. Absolutely done with this waste of skin and cap space.

 

[Puckstop40]

Should be longer. No place for that shit ever.

Players have a player's association and a collective bargaining agreement in place that quite clearly lays out the limits on discipline and termination, and the PA would challenge any termination. It's what they do.

Coaches can be fired because they don't have any such labor entity and ironclad agreement in place.

Translation: Well crap, I got caught verbalizing my toxic thoughts and it turns out not everybody agrees with my garbage world view. I'll keep my racism to myself in the future.

Hope Manning can find redemption and that this suspension helps guide him!

 

[Joey Moss]

Five games seems a bit weak

 

[Gotaf7]

He apologized, the other player accepted his apology, good enough for me.

Coaches should get that kind of agreement in place, problem is is that nhl teams would use replacement coaches and they might be better then the recycling bin of coaches.

Manning should be made an example of by the PA.

Wow what a loser Manning is.

 

[Smart Alek]

Man, you think you know a guy...

 

[Whiston532]

Well that’ll do it for him. He’s off to a career as a depth guy in Europe.

 

[lancer247]

Has it been reported what he said to the player?

 

[Sheppy]

Has it been reported what he said to the player?

It probably won’t be.

 

[Whiston532]

It probably won’t be.

Considering he’s fully acknowledging it happened I can’t imagine it really matters specifically what was said

 

[Sheppy]

Yep, pretty much. Rarely do you ever hear what was truly said. We can assume the nature of it and who it was directed at, that’s for sure.

Most people would be fired for spewing racist comments in the workplace.

 

[Soliloquy of a Dogge]

And people wonder why minorities don't want to play hockey.

 

[Filthy Dangles]

He apologized, the other player accepted his apology, good enough for me.

“Sorry I got caught as being a racist bro.”

 

[Ziggy Stardust]

And this happened on MLK Day. What a piece of shit.
