Season Over

[TysonX504]

The verdict is in.

Rouyn-Noranda Huskies forward Patrice Cormier was suspended for the balance of the season and the playoffs by the QMJHL on Monday.
Cormier, 19, created a firestorm of media attention last week when he elbowed Mikael Tam of the Quebec Remparts in the head, sending Tam into convulsions on the ice and causing him to be taken to hospital with brain trauma and broken teeth.

Chief disciplinarian Raymond Bolduc called the hit "dangerous and unacceptable" after laying out the punishment on Monday.

Deserves it

Yup. that was the least they could do, just from hearing other peoples opinions. Well...at least his career isn't over. But his reputaion is just going to drop.

[MasonRaymond0320]

Connecting back to what I said, I think once he starts playing again, his confidence will also drop, and I think he will be afraid to make any checks or to be agressive, maybe thinking that if he does one more cheap shot, his career will be over.

I would hope his career be over if he ends up making another "cheap" check. There should be no place in Hockey for this type of disrespect towards another player.

if he does something like it again, he should be blacklisted from professional hockey, as hes going to kill somebody

Good call by the league, I hope he gets his when he comes back from suspension wherever he plays!

"We will honour the league's suspension, have not considered, and will not explore other avenues for his return this season," Lamoriello said in a team release. "We are pleased to hear Mikael Tam is doing well. Our thoughts are with him for a full recovery."

That is why I love Lou Lamoriello. Not trying to find him a place to play! Good job Lou!

Im happy to. I hope he gets banned if he does something like that again. Hope he leaned his lesson.
