What do you think he'll get from Brendan Shanahan? I'm thinking 1 or 2 games.

[glg51*]

Oh well, Kule should be back

 

[I Believe]

Not that surprised, thought it could've been suspension worthy.

I can't see much more then 1 or 2 games.

 

[Gutless]

Yeah, probably 2 or 3 games. Nothing major, plus he should use the time to let his nose heal properly.

 

[BillyD]

could care less, kulemin and/or broll both much better

 

[Rare Jewel]

I like the way he's been playing, But it wasn't a good hit.


1 game + fine, Perhaps 2 games.

 

[BertCorbeau]

At the game the hit didn't look that bad live, and the replay they showed wasn't a good angle .. So I was booing and chirping the call pretty hard

... And now I rewatched the replay and I feel like an arse

 

[Asif16*]

Yeah saw this coming, 1-2-3 game likely. Dont think its going over 3.

Good thing is Kulemin will most likely be back, so ashton's spot was gone either way.

 

[Quares27]

probably 2 games... cant say I care much, had one or two noticeable games out of like 10

I don't think he'll be with the Leafs once Kulemin is back

 

[Warden of the North]

2 games IMO

 

[Quarter]

Well at least you know you are


Should be two or three games.

 

[Duffman955]

Meh. Borderline suspendable. No malicious intent.

Should be 1-2 games.

 

[Jimmy Firecracker]

It's couldn't care less. Sorry, just a pet peeve of mine.

Anyway yeah, no big loss if he does get suspended. It was a dangerous it. Wouldn't be surprised if he gets a couple of games.

 

[7even]

2-3 games. One of the dirtier hits by a Leafs player I've seen in a while.

 

[dsf]

Didn't like the hit. I know he's trying to be physical and stay with the team but you can't hit someone on the numbers like that.

2 games. No intent to injure but a bad play.

 

[ConnorTO]

meh../

 

[mikebel111*]

could care less, kulemin and/or broll both much better

has been really good for 3 games now. broll is not much better. ashton just needs to control himself sometimes.

 

[mikebel111*]

saw it coming. like the aggressiveness, just needs to tone it down a bit. He has had a good 3 games now. really impressive.

with that being said, I say 2 games.

 

[Sonofamitch]

What a dumb hit

 

[crump]

If they really wanted to punish him, they should make him play a game with the Oilers.

 

[Al14]

What??? That hit wasn't dirty enough to be a suspension. Fine, maybe.

We've seen far worse hits go unpunished with not even a penalty assessed during the game... Alfredsson's hit on Tucker??????????

NHL = NO HITTING LEAGUE

 

[Suntouchable13]

If they really wanted to punish him, they should make him play a game with the Oilers.

Or Sabres. We just have not seen them yet. They are even more awful.

 

[gtforepro]

Set an example, give him 5. That was dangerous.

 

[smitty10]

Stupid hit. Should definitely get at least a game or two.

 

[Morguee]

So if Kulemin and Fraser come off LTIR how close is the cap if Ashton is suspended and still counting against the cap?
