Torres suspended again in Stanley Cup Playoffs

Friday, May 17th, 2013

This is sounding like a broken record, but once again Raffi Torres of the San Jose Sharks has been suspended.

This time it is for the remainder of the Western Conference semi-finals for his hit to the head of Los Angeles’ Kings forward Jarret Stoll.

Torres received a two minute minor for the infraction in game one of the series, a series in which the Sharks currently find themselves down 2-0.

A major reason that Torres was suspended for a maximum of six games is because he is a repeat offender. Torres has been suspended three times in the past for 27 games.

NHL Trade Deadline Analysis

Monday, February 28th, 2011

Throughout the day, stay with www.anysportanytime.ca, for my analysis, and Jim’s analysis, on transactions that have taken place.

Here are the sixteen deals that have been made:

Atlanta trades Niclas Bergfors and Patrick Rissmiller to Florida for Radek Dvorak and a fifth round pick.

Analysis: I’m a little surprised in this one. I think Bergfors is the best player in the deal and better than Dvorak. With Atlanta in more playoff contention than Florida, I thought they wouldn’t get rid of him. In 2010-11, Bergfors has 11 goals and 18 assists, compared to Dvorak’s 7 goals and 14 assists. Dvorak, who was a first line player in Florida, playing with David Booth and former Oiler Marty Reasoner, has not lived up to his potential this season and is on the downside of his career.
