We will find out Monday on the length of a suspension to Portland Winterhawks forward Brad Ross.
Ross was handed a five minute major and game misconduct for charging after hitting Rockets forward Zach Franko in game one.
Franko suffered a broken nose, needed stitches and never returned. Ross hit Franko after coming out of the penalty box. Ross stepped onto the ice, went straight towards the unsuspecting forward and delivered the check. Was it clean? I honestly didn't see it, but the damage suffered to Franko makes me question it.
Franko likely won't play Sunday in game two.
So how many games does Ross get? Does he get as many games as Evan Bloodoff did? Bloodoff is a first time offender while Ross has been suspended before. He served a two game suspension in November in a game against Saskatoon.
Does that previous conviction, even though it was not for a charging major, increase the the length of the suspension beyond the four games Bloodoff served?
What do you think?
How many games is adequate? Leave your comments below.
