Suspension Record?

Question

Does anyone know what the single season record for most suspensions by a team is? The Flyers have to be on pace to break it with 5 so far.

I do not know, and I was asking for total suspensions, not games.

Answer 1

I don't know the NHL record, but the Flyers previous team record for suspended players in a season was 3.

Answer 2

im trying to understand this. your asking how many suspensions are the record for a season by a team in the nhl. then u state the flyers are on pace to break that record. does that mean u know what the record is or that u are runing ur mouth. also are u going for number of games lost or just total number.

we both know who will know

sorry my whole thing was i woke up to several flyer related questions dealing with the suspension. kinda took out on this guy some of the frustration.. surprised those two dont know know. looked online and its going to be a pain in the u know what but as long as it stays being a slow day i might be able to get something figured out

so far this is closest thing to finding anything worthwhile
an entire roster was suspended in 1925. now it was more of due to them no showing cause of labor but it does go down as a suspension. lity think that works as the record.

Answer 3

I think it's unprofessional at best for Colin Campbell to be targeting any specific team period.

The shot on Patrice Bergereon by Randy Jones is something that was a result of Bergereon going towards the boards with his head down. This is a 'no-no' even in Junior hockey, if you're going to play with your head down you might as well expect a serious injury, any player who's played organized hockey knows this.

Having watched the game, and the hit several times, Jones intent was to remove Bergereon from being able to take control of the puck and then to move back up the ice quickly. The hit was not a "contract' type hit as has been sometimes seen. I've already seen some "stupid' comments from people who have not even seen the game, the hit, or any video at all of the incident, yet there compelled or obligated to make statements about something they don't even know anything about.

If Campbell is going to be a strong commissioner fine, comment on the real problems in the NHL and not spotlight on something that's merely currently publicly popular.
This is the easy way out of not doing anything of 'substance' to eleviate some of the real issues.

Answer 4

I hope we get an answer to this. It will be an interesting stat. Although I think he (Collie) has it out for the Flyers now. I am not saying they didn't deserve the suspensions but in my own opinion some were rather extreme. Funny how TSN was reporting last night that Collie has put Holmgren (representing the rest of the team) on notice. I am sure Paul was shaking after that convo! hahaha

Answer 5

Bob.........sent an email to Cyren..he doesn't know, nor does he know how one could figure it out as none of the stats pages record 'so and so missed x games due to suspension'

I've got a call in to a couple of other cronies who might know and I'm awaiting a response.

I honestly can't recall any team having 5 suspensions in a year previously though.

Answer 6

Haha, Jared, your very right.

anyways, who knows? i'm sure it's not much more then 5, but i'm not dissing the flyers, they are a great team.

Answer 7

Probably like 10

Answer 8

just a few seperate instances played up by the media...................downie made a rookie mistake; cotie is just a goon; boulerice was another goon and we dropped him; randy jones made a young mistake and hartnell was just finishing (shame the guys head was right at the crease of the boards)................i love it.............make these teams scared to go into the corner against us

Answer 9

Good question and one I would also like to know the answer to. Cyrenaica????
