Dylan Seitz and Anderson MacDonald will miss the game due to suspension.
Seitz for his staged fight. MacDonald for being 3rd man in a fight. It occurred when Jakob Pelletier was hit by Saint John’s Tyler Smith. Pelletier went after Smith. Robbie Burt went after Pelletier. MacDonald notices Pelletier on the ice against two guys. He comes over to Jakob’s defense.
Kyle Foreman has been called up. Jake Stewart still with the team.
11 forwards and 7 defensemen expected.

He comes over to Jakob’s defense. Kyle Foreman has been called up. Jake Stewart still with the team. 11 forwards and 7 defensemen expected. That was one hell of a cluster fuck call by the refs from the get go. As you clearly described it Pelletier was tied up with someone completely different and Burt drops his gloves 15 feet away and comes after Pelletier for a 2 on 1. There was not even a fight it was three players laying on ground. No part of that was anything more than roughing there was no fight at all. Gloves didn’t even come off for anyone but Burt. If they were calling a fight it should have been between Smith and Pelletier With Burt as the third man. If they were calling a fight between Burt and Pelletier than Smith should have been third man in. How the hell is Mcdonald considered a third man in when he went into a 2v1 situation. Also how the hell did Sylvestre get a misconduct?? If it was considered Burt vs Pelletier, than it should have been Burt the instigator, aggressor and game entering into a roughing scrum gloves off to start a fight. I was left so confused how Saint John came out of it Witt an actual power play.... to me it was a clear cut 2 min roughing to smith and Pelletier and if you want a 2 or 10 min misconduct for unsportsmanlike to Burt, maybe also a 10 min or 2 min misconduct to McDonald when he Came in to help

It was more of a "control the situation" type of call...but I thought they should have been fair and tossed one of the SJ players that was involved too. I agree with you I dont think anything from that play should have been called a fight, it was mostly a bunch of roughing going on in a dog pile and Burts aggressor made sense as he was dropping punches to a downed opponent, something that needs to be looked at very seriously as someone getting a punch with their head against the ice is incredibly dangerous.

Early Prediction: Khovanov will be the most hated player on these boards by opposing fans by December of next season. Guy is a Riot but definitely loves to get into scrums & is racking up lots of PIMS. His skating & discipline are his biggest weaknesses that I can see. I like that he doesn't back down though. The skating should improve as the season goes on but I know he's not known for his footspeed. Hopefully something he puts time into in the offseason like McKenna did.
His ability to put the puck on the tape in traffic & with very little time to react to the play is amazing.

He’s got a Karsums like disturbing quality. Also, I expect his skating and strength will get better as he recovers but the playmaking is certainly there.

So far he's given a few face washes, thrown punches at guys for knocking his stick away, and spent a solid 30 seconds squirting water against the penalty box glass while him & Durandeau were in the box, even with the ref standing right there. I can already see the posts coming from certain posters but myself I love getting guys with personality coming into the league. Its much needed. Just a bonus that its a guy with his kind of talent.

But it will get frustrating as a fan when he gets goaded into penalties once his reputation gets around. But like Frk, you hope that by 19 he matures and is a dominant player.

Also, the hit on McIsaac was borderline. I'm ok with it. He's gotta learn the league and the way it's refereed.

Yeah I am not really concerned, he's coming off a long recovery and is getting used to the physical play in North America, he seems like he's really hard on himself if he misses a chance or makes a bad pass so its likely just getting some frustration out, but he definitely has more grit to his game than I expected. He laid a few decent hits out there for a guy I expected to be timid, he's basically still in training camp. After he missed a chance a glorious chance front he went and taped his stick up like Zebra stripes. Not sure if he's really superstitious or what, hes a character.

I just hope the team and fans are patient with him and allow him to adjust before we run him out of town on a rail like other talented Russians before him - Shkotov, Kabanov, Tkachev - because they do not fit in the neat little box we want our players to fit into.
