Jensen banned for 3 games

[PantherTom]

For checking to the head.

In my opinion the contact was with the shoulder not the head Davies played next shift! Was late though so maybe deserved 1 game

Yet when keefe clearly elbows conboy to the head and he has to be taken off on a stretcher he gets 3 games?! And downgraded to charging

Seems injuries and suspension are like buses. Go a season pretty much free of any and then this season they're all coming at once!

Very much deserved though, skates leave ice, can't complain

[iginla]

That is not a great hit,but he doesn't hit his head,Jensens elbow makes contact with Davies arm 6 inches below his shoulder.

It shouldn't be a 3 game ban that's ridiculous.

Jensens shoulder hits Davies right in the face. I'm sorry but we can't have any complaints about that, it's a check to the head and the ban is deserved.

[Carnell]

It's the minimum tariff for a checking to the head! Can't argue with the ban, I called it last night watching the game!

Luckily we have two bodies back tonight! But going to miss Jensen

it's clearly a check to the head. Jensen's shoulder makes contact with Davies' face.

Exactly how i saw it. I was fuming with him when i saw it as i knew strait away he would get a ban for it.

[kezypanther]

For me it's the right call he does make contact to the head from the video. Just don't like the inconstancy, keefes hit was worse for me and only got given one extra game. Yet he deliberately targets the head with the elbow and knocks the guy out :/. He should have got 5 for that at least. Then Jensens will be 3 games.

it is a check to the head no complaints here

[Pies]

Clear check to the head. 3 games is the right ban. It's just frustrating that we're shooting ourselves in the foot with all these bans.

[pantherdman]

So Davies has to miss 3 games also to ensure he doesn't have concussion right?

Did the ref even call a penalty on the hit?
I could scrutinise a game and probably find 5 or 6 reasons for suspension every time.
Let the game be decided on the ice.

What happened with that caps player who drove one of our players head first into the boards??? Nothing.
Twice as bad as that hit.

Yet I'm robbed of seeing a full squad for another 3 games, yet still the same ticket price.

May as well get the Italian refs in.

[The Flying Shirt]

A slam dunk and absolutely obvious.

Good grief

[panthermatt]

I think Jensen certainly deserves his ban but also the note about the Caps player is a very good one as the hit on Murray was just as bad as Tuuka's against the Steelers but the one on Murray was not even called as a penalty. I think this is possibly because the Panthers did not request suplimentary disapline on the hit but again it comes down to a lack of consistency.

[The Flying Shirt]

Murray spoke to the ref straight away and said it was an accident.

[sameagain]

No consistency from Hanson, looks like he might be leaving his mark on the way hockey goes in the future.Not the way to go imo.

You can't fight a battle of wits with an unarmed opponent.

[pantherdman]

Did the devils actually ask for a review?
Would have thought they would have more pressing matters to spend their money on, like keeping their club afloat?

Checks like that happen every game, never get 3 game bans handed out.

No consistency what so ever.
Should be down to the ref what gets reviewed not the £

You are the most one eyed fan I have ever seen on a forum board. Everyone else ( including your fans ) have the seen it for what it actually is. A check to the head.

It seems like your motto is "panthers can do no wrong"

[pantherdman]

Motto is: hockey has gone soft.

I'd be more worried about your own club mate, they're full strength woeful

Yes and we are looking brilliant so far lol

[dp]

Can't really argue with the call because he does check his head - you could probably argue that it means that it's pretty much impossible to check Davies though, but that's a different matter.

What annoys me is the TOTAL lack of consistency. We have Makela getting a two game ban on the back of a review requested by Sheffield - later that week Dowd is in his own paper saying it was an accident.

And then we get Suderman (and plenty of others) getting away scot-free for doing exactly the same as Henley did to Spencer.

Hanson is having a massively unhealthy influence on the league this year. We obviously have to have a review system, but at the moment it's like a random number generator.

The players look to have no idea where they stand or what's acceptable - and that's not good for anyone, least of all the fans.

Woeful enough to beat us 5-0.
Wake up and smell the coffee.

I can't understand anyone thinking we got hard done by here. Clear, clear hit to the head. Lucky to only be 3 games.

If we have the luxury when he returns, we ought to sit him for more. A disgraceful hit when you're already short-benched.
