    Will Raffi Torres receive a suspension?
    Obviously for his hit on Marian Hossa. He left his feet prior to the hit but he definitely led with his shoulder and his elbow did not appear to come up. The shoulder most likely connected with the jaw. Torres didn't receive a penalty for the hit but the fact that Hossa left via stretcher and probably a concussion will have Shanahan review it.

    I don't think he should receive a supension but the refs should have definitely given a penalty for leaving the feet. Some will also say it was a late hit.

    I missed it was watching the Devils complete there Epic Fail

    Edit: found a video on twitter and the hit looked late but and he did leave his feet. He has got to be suspended for that.

      Did you see the hit on Sedin the other day near the Canucks bench? That looked like a little tap compared to this hit.

          Kerry Fraser talking about the hit on TSN right now and says the on ice call should have been a 5 minute major and game misconduct.

          Dave Hodge says it should be a suspension and a lengthy one.

                Repeat offender, late and he jumped, doesn't look good for Torres. Definitely suspension worthy, how long tho? who knows with Shanny at the helm.

                    Torres is a repeat defender and the inury to Hossa will compound it. I think Shanahan will suspend him for the rest of the post season or something like 15 games.

                        Absolutely, the guy is a notorious headhunter and he almost killed Brent Seabrook in last year's playoffs. Can't believe the refs didn't even give him a minor penalty. The deplorable officiating has allowed Phoenix to steal 2 games they didn't deserve to win so far!

                          I sure hope I open a newspaper someday or see on sportscenter the news that a car driven by Torres is "blindsided" by a semi truck (how appropriate would that be) and that he will be paralyzed in a wheelchair.

                            10 games min, a nice 25 game suspension without pay will make him think twice next time.

                                  only because he left his feet he will get a suspension. 1 or 2 games

                                  What Duncan Keith did was much worse. He only got 5 games. I would have given him 20. Gutless $%#@er

                                    Met all the criteria of an illegal hit. Repeat offender, may be out for next playoffs.

                                      What Keith did was worse but he was not a repeat offender. Torres has been suspended 4 times already hence he will get way more than 1-2 games.

                                        ya probably. Stil trying to figure the NHL suspension logic. I can't say that I have ever agreed with any ruling except the Marty McSorely one years ago
