GHT120 Posted September 2, 2021 Share Posted September 2, 2021 Toronto, Ont. – Ontario Hockey League Commissioner David Branch today announced that London Knights playerLogan Mailloux has been suspended indefinitely as a result of an incident that occurred November 2020 in Sweden, while the player was on loan to SK Lejon. This violated the League’s expectation of the appropriate conduct of an OHL player. The player will have the opportunity to apply for reinstatement to the League on or after January 1, 2022. A decision regarding reinstatement will be based in part on his conduct since his return to Canada and the appropriate treatment, counselling, mentoring and or education he receives from the date of this decision.

Maybe he drops down a tier again but I think the whole point of the suspension is that he doesn't play thereby serving as a form of punishment.

I suspect that if he "avoids" the suspension by playing elsewhere the OHL will be less willing to reinstate him ... IMO, he needs to, with the Canadiens support, "work on things" and "prove himself worthy"of returning to the OHL ... and the Canadiens have to keep their involvement private, it has to be about the young man and not the Habs trying to rehabilitate their image.

Exactly. If he goes elsewhere, he gets to play but probably hurts his overall prospects in the long run. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could? ... maybe *** IF *** somebody is willing to sign him Should? ... no ... as dlbair if he plays elsewhere he reduces his chances of getting back into the OHL and likely his long-term chances at the NHL IMO, playing elsewhere makes it look like he doesn't feel he deserves the punishment and thereby hurts the "rehabilitation" of his image/reputation ... "taking his medicine" now likely goes a long way to other leagues being accepting of him down the road. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hab29RETIRED Posted September 3, 2021 Share Posted September 3, 2021 We may as well just match KK’s after sheet. Having an extra pick doesn’t help, when the habs have pretty much blown every first round pick since MB was hired, other than Caufield dropped down. When they hit a puck right like Sergechev, they gave him up for a winger that they hoped would fill their centre woes. hell, even before MB, I think the only first rounders that worked out fir is we’re Price and Maxpac. McDonough was the Gainey version of giving up a stud Dman for another teams garbage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hockeyrealist Posted September 3, 2021 Share Posted September 3, 2021 Regarding the Logan M suspension from OHL. Seems punitive, redundant given the situation was handled by the legal system and the stated objectives are completely subjective. That league (and CHL in general) has a large history of misdeeds, indiscretions and scandals of its own that were dealt with poorly. I personally know past players who were involved in worse, caught on Canadian soil and never missed a game. This is PR and posturing by the league, I now feel bad for the kid whereas I originally felt he had a huge hill to climb in order to be someone I could root for should he ever play for the Habs. He still does, but this issue of bigger than hockey and remedies most likely involve early education systems for all, not just hockey players. Some of the comments about this case in media are verging on a witch hunt of hockey players. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty much every CHL/AHL/NHL suspension is just that ... the inconsistency in when leagues suspend players and for how many games, and the ridiculously short "severe" penalties, shows that the objective is not truly eliminating the dangerous behaviour but looking like they are trying to do something about it.

JoeLassister Posted September 3, 2021 Share Posted September 3, 2021 Interview on TVASports with Jayden Struble this morning. He says that his ongoing groin injury is now gone and that he's finally playing 100% healthy. His groin was bothering him since the summer of 2019 when he missed Habs development camp. Also (maybe) missed World Juniors because of this in 2020. Goes as far as saying that "I will have the impact that I want to have in the NHL. I have everything in hands to control my destiny. There is no limit to what I can bring on the table in this league." Pretty confident man if you ask me. https://www.tvasports.ca/2021/09/03/ch-le-bulldozer-americain-pret-a-tout-casser 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There really isn't a proper comparable. The Champions Hockey League is a mixture of teams from different leagues. It's a good competition level although September hockey is still September hockey.
