Indefinitely means that they'll decide his suspension at a later date right?

Edit - How is this kind of thing so extreme but Ovie's transgressions go unnoticed?

I see nothing wrong with the hit.

Really? for that hit? Am I missing something? Looked like a good hit other than he lifted one of his skates.

Let me first start off by saying when you waive your right to meet the guy who is determining your fate doesn't bode well for you. It looks like the 8+ variety.

Second I hadn't see the hit and now that I have all I can say is I don't even know what a legal check is anymore. This wasn't Boulerice jumping into a guy, this wasn't Cooke elbowing someone in the head, this was Andy Sutton checking an opposing player.

I really could see this being a 15+ suspension and everyone going how the hell did he end up with that number.

Did he waive his in person hearing?

I'm sorry, but this is one of the dumbest things I've seen all year, and I'm sorry but I just can't believe some of the posts in this thread so far.

We have a guy here who's 6'6 and feels the need to leave his feet and deliberately target the head of another human being with his forearm - and this is a guy who's already coming off a 5 game suspension this season and has a rap sheet and history thats almost as big as him. There was nothing clean or legal about that check and checks all the boxes on how NOT to deliver a bodycheck. What a dummy.

Andy Sutton reminds me of a giant troglodyte, lurching out of his cave like a retarded simpleton, trying to make fire by rubbing his dick on a rock, drooling all over himself. The dude just doesn't get it - and the dumbfuk is in his late 30s!!! There's no excuse for a stupid hit like this.

Shanahan's gonna throw the book at this idiot - and so sue me kids, he's gonna deserve every penny he forfeits to the NHLPA players assistance fund...what a stupid fuk of a hockey player....
