@123torrent i dont know man thats defs a questionable hit. As you can probs tell im a big Phaneuf fan so i have defended a lot of his borderline hits but I would say that this goes over the line. Jumped in the air, aimed high, I'd say this was over the line. Also, Kassian was lucky that Della Rovere wasn't on the ice otherwise he would be eating through a straw right now.
I live close to Windsor and support the Spitfires…. but Branch is a complete idiot, he suspends Liambas for his hit on Fanelli because of the after affects (hospital, etc) but in my honest opinion this hit appeared more aggressive and more intent to injure! he should be gone for the year too…. Branch ends one guys junior career which was uncalled for but he set a president now and Kassian should get the year too.
Branch set the standard now…. so he's gotta stick to it!
only thing dirty about the hit was that he didnt touch the puck…Kassians feet were on the ice when the hit was made…just because he left his feet after the hit, doesnt mean he jumped at him…its physics…shouldnt get more than 5 games…Kassian is a beast
well since this is clearly a predatory hit, and the puck wasnt in the air, kennedy never touched it, and it was a high hit, combined with kassians history of doing thsi sort of thing, 20+ games wouldnt surprise me
Enough is ENOUGH!!!….these players are preying upon other players career dreams. If they are so willing to be ruthless, and boarderline criminal, they deserve their dreams of being a high priced NHL player to be ended….hockey and all professional sports are to promote high quality game play with respect and sportsman-ship to be paramont…I am disgusted with how and where hockey is headed…..
id say it was more dirty then liambis's hit, i mean he didnt even have the puck, he left his feet and went for the head, if he doesnt get the rest of the season this is bull.
beautiful hit. thats my kind of player, and the way i hit people when i play. if i made a team he would be one of the first players on it. same with that guy that threw the elbow on the quebec player. thats was amazing too
Yeah, Kassian got a 20 game suspension for that "beauty hit". Your hero Cormier will probably get suspended from junior hockey for the rest of the season. How that douchebag was named captain of Canada….
all u haters are dumb if u slow the shit down his arms hit before his feet lifted prob shouldnt have went for the hit but in no way is it worth 20 games
certainly a cheap hit. didnt have possession and control at any time and the guy hitting left his feet. that guy was headhunting not playing hockey he was looking for someone to deck which is not how hockey is played. hockey dont needs hits like that and a 10 game suspension should let him learn a lesson.
I really hate that guy on the (viewing) left, all these years later and with the many improvements he still sits on TSN complaining about hits, even though there nothing like the ones he used to moan about. Such a clown

lol wasnt much of a fight, stanisz gets courage points but hes not in the same weight class as kassian
this is definately a suspension, if the OHL is genuine about getting rid of head shots
Kennedy did touch the puck as it was going in the air. Kassian jumped, so therefore, a charging penalty is all that is deserved.
juicing? ahaha u are so dumb. yea zack kassian is on roids,,,yea um sure
atleast Barrie won…
Totally clean hit. Fuck Windsor
definition of dirty.. kennedy jumped so high for the hit, he almost went over kassian. what a plug. get shit like that outta hockey
Totally clean hit. Now THAT'S REAL HOCKEY!!!
God Bless Kassian. See you on the Sabres. Fuck all the whiners.
You Tards Nedd to STFU
These guys are idiots.
HIS FEET ARE ON THE GROUND AT IMPACT! ffs.
Just freeze fram….. morons

Does not deserve a suspension.

If these guys are just trying to knock someone out they should quit hockey and go to the ufc

@jokersteve "joker"steve huh?
explains alot.
he didnt touch the puck at all, it was the windsor defenceman that touched it, which is why it went back towards barries end, durr.
@jokersteve lmfao atta boy, what are you 12?
talking about a teenager whos career could be over because of this and you think its acceptable because he sucker punched someone? grow the fuck up.
20 games
thats the OHL buddy
Agreed, cormier is a dumb fuckin child and should be banned for life from hockey in north america period. fukin loser
ur an idiot…

Clean Hit
20 gms for interference according to David Branch, what a joke!
@Tsen24 Clean hit? Kennedy never touches the puck, it was an elbow/arm to the head and clearly a charge, Kassian's feet were 7 feet in the air.
all u haters are dumb if u slow the shit down his arms hit before his feet lifted prob shouldnt have went for the hit but in no way is it worth 20 games
TSN commentators are a joke they dont know shit about hockey
certainly a cheap hit. didnt have possession and control at any time and the guy hitting left his feet. that guy was headhunting not playing hockey he was looking for someone to deck which is not how hockey is played. hockey dont needs hits like that and a 10 game suspension should let him learn a lesson.
Kassian is fucking crazy
After the hit last night this guy doesn't have a huge future in the NHL
that guy should NEVER play hockey again…
LOL definition of leaving his feet to make a hit.
Dirty dirty dirty hit , let the kid touch the puck and glide into your hit not leap like a frog .
yeah, but you guys will like Hodgson. As long as stays healthy then you'll see some great things from him.
