WC: Injuries and suspensions

[BalticWarrior]

To acallabeth it`s not about russia it`s about how they take away our best d`s whenever some important game comming up,same with kulda few years ago.fu** iihf

 

[Like Wall]

Also, do you seriously think that there's a conspiracy against Latvia? Way to think of yourself as the center of the universe.

What? E=mc^2

 

[BaileyMacTavish]

Bartulis suspended,You mother******ing IIHF ass*****es you can go ******* yourselves.

Woah.... When and why?

 

[Chimpradamus]

IIHF will not suspend him. IIHF only suspends when it fits their agenda. Like suspending Bārtulis for something, that could have possibly turned into an injury to the opposing player, but was not noticed by the ref as a penalty.

According to some journalist on Swedish Aftonbladet, journalist Emil Karlsson, Yemelin will be suspended one game for the spearing against Franzén. Kalinin will be suspended three games for breaking Franzén's nose.

I think it should be the other way around. Kalinin's crosscheck was incidental, while Yemelin's spearing was just disgusting, not to mention all the dives.

Agree with you and it´s now official:

I'm not even sure why Kalinin is suspended in the first place. In my eyes that crosscheck was basically on the same level as an unintentional high stick. Too bad Franzén broke his nose.

Emelin should probably have gotten 3 games though.

 

[Lugaid]

I don't think Kalinin deserved to be suspended, I'd rather put his suspended games on Yemelin's account.

 

[Den]

3 games ... fooo ... a crosscheck in the crease when the other guy had his head at the waist level. IIHF reads to much Aftonbladet.

 

[zorz]

did IIHF hire Brandon Shanahan for this tournament or what?

 

[Den]

No Kalinin in QF will hurt. I wonder what are the chances that an appeal will be successful?

 

[Acallabeth]

Ha, a game for Yemelin is tolerable, but 3 games for Kalinin is a joke. He was looking at Varlamov and pushed Franzen without any intention. What next, a suspension for a deflected shot?
And to think that Treille got a game more for that elbow...

 

[Elvs]

Three games for Kalinin?

Whoever came to that decision are even worse than the refs the other night.

 

[joe89]

Well that's pretty pathetic. Emelin should've gotten the match and 1 game. Kalinin no further discipline, maybe a game tops for the injury outcome.

 

[Moen is Gone]

France's Anthony Güttig got a concussion from the Bezina hit.

More info after further medical exams.

 

[Outrun]

Franzén is a bit messed up:

Won't play tonight, but will be back Tuesday.

Hockey has a history of punishing results, not intent.

Yemelin (sp?) should've gotten all the four games suspension. God I hope someone really lights him up soon so that he doesn't need to dive around making a mockery of the sport of hockey.

 

[Den]

Hockey has a history of punishing results, not intent.

Tha's why we have "intentional" and "unintentinal" in the rules...

Blindside headshot on eberle today, probably will be looked at

 

[Acallabeth]

What I get from Tretyak's interview is that he regards himself as a great hero because he didn't make an attempt to underline unintentional character of Kalinin's crosscheck.
Joke of a decision, joke of the FHR president. Way to support your team.

If Kalinin just elbowed Franzen as hard as he could... He'd get a game more for a premeditated cheapshot that can ruin someone's career.

 

[NicolasH]

Anthony Guttig from France is out for the rest of the tournament with a concussion.

Damien Fleury has a broken foot but it seems he will continue to play until the end of the world championship.

 

[BalticWarrior]

Possible suspension for Daugavins. Isn`t thats just great? Important game against norway? nope no Bartulis for you guys! Important game against Danes? Sorry Daugavins could actually win that game for you!
**** IIHF,**** THIS TOURNAMENT AND **** THE REFS!

 

[babyshamble]

Daugavins should be suspended. Spearing is a dirty and dangerous play and should be punished.

 

[BalticWarrior]

Daugavins should be suspended. Spearing is a dirty and dangerous play and should be punished.

Than the norwegian who injured his foot should also be suspended.

 

[kajoo]

Dominik Granak and Marcel Hossa out for the Tournament. Link (in slovakian only)

 

[Baba Booey]

That was a good hit, he got him in the chest.


Also is there anywhere you can get highlights of some of the suspended incidents(Ive seen the RUS/SWE ones) I wanna see what Latvias complaining about.
