The Longest NHL Suspensions!

[@ghmongo]

You're missing the McSorley hit on Brashear (1 season) and Raffi Torres (41 games). I think there are a couple others that I'm missing off the top of my head.

[@mikestan1801]

Bertuzzi also. As a Canucks fan, it’s embarrassing that so many examples involved the Canucks.

[@dc8162]

That and Tom Lysiak 23 games for tripping a linesman.

[@wizard8285]

Surprised he missed these 2, Marty was banned from the NHL. And I'm pretty sure the Torres hit was a pre-season game against the Ducks if I remember correctly?

[@Crushbra]

I was thinking of the Mcsorley one. I came to comment Steve Downie (Flyers or Tampa knocking out Dean Mcammond of Ottawa

[@TheSpikestr]

I also said that he missed the Torres hit

[@MRprod.]

Well done video, we'll need a part 2 with the few missing important one mentionned in other comment. Bertuzzi(20games) hit on Moore was a shocking one as well

[@dakotabetka1356]

I thought for sure the Bertuzzi/Moore one was gonna be on here, that was a scary one

[@LarsEricJoehnk]

@@dakotabetka1356 It should be on here. It ended a career and tarnished a career. It could easily be a whole video itself.

[@thomasfriberg225]

What happened to Raffi Torres 41 game suspension, or the other Chris Simon suspension of 30 games?

[@Dreadfulvoiletgirl]

Also I know it’s from the before time but Billy Coutu was literally banned for life back in 1927

[@TheSpikestr]

You missed the Raffi Torres hit he was suspended 41 games (Which is half the regular season) On October, 3 2015

[@j3susl0v3sy0u1]

The no sh*t Chris is what got me😂😂😂

[@christophersmith3867]

The Wayne Makie, Ted Green stick swinging fight in a pre season game between the St. Louis Blues and the Boston Bruins in 1969 has to qualify as one of the most serious incidents in the NHL. Ted Green had to have surgery to remove bone chips from around his brain. I believe Makie was only suspended for 30 days though.

[@tmatthd4467]

He says “Dirty plays” while showing a perfectly executed hip check 😂

[@CanadianFloridaMan]

Funny thing is Dan Maloney ended up playing for the Leafs 3 seasons later...and Brian Glennie was on the same team

[@chrisd4112]

Yeah I really hate it when prosecutors get involved. Didn't even find what he did was out of place for that generation of hockey.

[@SunnySidhu_TinyTauTsss]

i recently started following any NHL. Bertuzzi/Moore was the reason I started following NHL at all. I think it should have been in here atleast.

[@stephanerochetteonlyfanz]

i really appreciate the vids but i can’t understand how you do your tops? a lot of suspensions were missing, like the initial suspension to Tom Wilson after his hit on a St.Louis player, or even Raffi Torres’ suspension. it’s to bad that this isn’t an accurate ranking, but the vid is nicely written anyway

[@Cloud-dt6xb]

Don't make excuses for that Henderson one Wideman had plenty of time to notice him and get out of the way. Saying he did'nt see Henderson is bullcrap by the time he was skateting to the bench Henderson was already there and he was looking straight up with the ref right in his line of sight. Unless your near blind there's no way you could possibly NOT see a guy in a black and white shirt.

[@MeowTheWhat]

"Some of The NHL Longest Suspensions!"

[@edwardryan393]

love the vids man! Also just putting it out there, but I enjoy the fact that you Actually credit other peoples videos that you use (Shout out to my girl Jens!) So many just use them with no credit so good to see that from ya! Keep up the good work and look forward to future vids from you! Especailly Sabres related stuff! GO BUFFALO!

[@ariccua6101]

4:22 "Apparently Dwyer hates anyone named Joe." Good one.

[@jahziyatheexpediametlifekf7257]

Chris Simon was later suspended for 30 games for stomping on Jarko Rutuus foot in October 2007. Brad May was suspended for 20 games for slashing Steve Heinse in 2000. Wayne Maki slashed Ted Green during a 1969 Preseason game. Todd Bertuzzi suspended for 20 games for sucker punching Steve Moore in March 2004.

[@edgerrr]

Dennis Wideman saw the linesman and cross-checked him in the back contrary to what the stupid announcer said.

[@gkarenko9593]

You missed Grant Fuhr and Don Maloney'being suspended for drug use... The irony in Fuhr's case, according to his autobiography, was that he had already quit using drugs before he was suspended.

[@francoisperreault7400]

Don Murdoch was suspended for drug us (as well as Ric Nattress), not Don Maloney.

[@debroselle8877]

The Wideman hit was dirty, childish and on purpose.

[@michaeldipietro5010]

Dale Hunter had said he believed the play was still going on. I have the Washington Post newspaper from the day after the hit to the suspension for referencing. Thus, he hit Turgeon accordingly. As a Caps fan, even I do not believe that crap. He knew what he wanted to do all along. Yes, I do believe the suspension was justifiably warranted.

[@travisalexander2711]

I was at that game , what a career defining moment ....he will always be remembered as a scumbag , which is all he ever was actually.

[@michaeldipietro5010]

@Travis Alexander wow, I bet that was a shock. As a fan, just do not expect plays like Hunter's happening in person. I agree: Hunter played with an edge. I don't agree of his actions. The hit on Turgeon was the albatross I believed kept a championship from happening during his tenure.

[@greasygod93]

Woo! ‘93 the last time a Canadian team won the Stanley Cup.

[@csnide6702]

I had forgot about Dwyer....... what a beaut.

[@jonathancosby1429]

Um Raffi Torres, Todd Bertuzzi , Mc Sorley .. but you had some great picks too

[@travisalexander2711]

Mcsorley on Brashear, or Bertuzzi on Moore?? What about Dino Cicerelli???

[@saltywingsandavsfan]

I came here for the legend Raffy Torres

[@MoneyHoneyBunny]

I personally believe Wideman. He's never ever ever done anything else in his entire career to make any of us believe that was on purpose. There's just no way someone in the NHL checks a ref unless theyre concussed and think it's a player in their way like right here

[@ronodowd5724]

How the insect in Toronto with dino ciccarelli swinging his stick

[@racer14glr91]

Thumbnail of Simon in a Caps jersey, but didn't play for them when he got the suspension you showed.

[@ronodowd5724]

And can't forget the Vancouver game

[@richardmanzoni2125]

Evander Kane got 21 games

[@ariccua6101]

Look at the top: As a Leafs fan, I had no idea about this.

[@Blynx5]

You forgot about that guy that got a whole year suspension and 18 months probation

[@jyhina]

Wideman was clearly pissed at the refs not calling the hit and had the same reaction as Dale Hunter did. Even if he was dazed, you could tell that at no point did he turn around after bumping in to the official, making it pretty obvious that he tried to act as if nothing happened

[@Crushbra]

How long was Steve Downie (flyers) taking out Dean Mcammond (ottawa) I think the year was 2007 or 2008

[@footfungus6226]

The Marchand spear on Jarry ( 29 games)

[@MrBruinman86]

6 games, not 29

[@randomdefender1532]

You got the first one a little bit incorrect. King Clancy upended Eddie Shore with a check. Eddie Shore either mistook Ace Bailey for Clancy or thought Bailey was the one who hit him. Red Horner actually played for the Maple Leafs, and he responded by sucker punching Eddie Shore, knocking him out, Despite this Shore was not seriously injured.

[@MoneyHoneyBunny]

The crazy thing is,,, Eddie Shore woulda been put in prison for YEARS if that happened now. He ended a guys career, he woulda got a much stiffer penalty than McSorley, for DAMN SURE....

[@jaxonbrown290]

you forgot Billy Coutu life ban but that lasted April 13, 1927 to October 8, 1929 but I can't find any records that stat that he played in the NHL after 1929.

[@cubramage3791]

And Billy Coutu's brawl with referees (lifetime ban made in 1927 got reversed 2.5 years later)

[@sherryallen3650]

What Hollweg did was more dangerous in my opinion. If he had been called for a penalty he wouldn't be back within Simons striking reach. If Simon wanted to do worse he could have just with his fists. Rob,not Sherry.

[@trevor8493]

Totally

[@sjc4]

McSorley is technically first as he was banned for life. Jfc kinda wild how you could basically kill someone on the ice before the new rules and they'd be like, eh, 3 games.

[@j0hnny483]

None of these suspensions are strong enough. If you use your stick to purposefully strike a player above the shoulders, it should come with a permanent ban from the NHL and criminal charges. It should be the same if you strike a player who has fallen to the ice and is defenseless. Anything short of this and we're teaching our kids that if they want to change or end another player's career, they just need to sacrifice a few games and feel shame. Not sure when the NHL will wrap their heads around this. Imagine if you two fisted a random person, with a club, on the sidewalk or imagine if you grabbed a cop and started to throw hands...how is this any different?

[@jefferyhutchison9775]

Todd Bertuzzi?????

[@conjandysecurity]

Eddie Shore.... old time hockey.

[@milkmyway2]

Hockey is growing!

[@TheCanadianGuy56]

This video for some reason had 0 comment section when I first opened it. Thought it was some weird ahe restriction lol

[@melissathomas8321]

I think Widemans suspension was overkill. He was dazed and who knows what was going on with his brain was most likely concussed

[@adjepson]

What about Bertuzzi? McSorley? Brashear?

[@insxrg3nt]

Todd bertuzzi? I’m a canucks fan but I can’t believe it’s not there

[@frederalbacon]

Wideman 100% should not have been suspended. The league has no problem running tapes back to look for supplementary discipline, but not to negate it? He clearly had just smashed his head into the glass, he LITERALLY GRABBED HIS HEAD and went to get the hell off the ice, and even after, he's sitting on the bench clearly confused. Did he ever get checked out for a concussion himself?

[@KDill29]

Dennis Wideman...more like Dennis Wiseau "I didnt mean to hit him....I didnt mean to hit him...I DiD Not."

[@joemcgee2918]

Good video , but Donnie Brasheared her Jason Wolley eh bud

[@DoubleEgaming_]

Tom Wilson hit on Oskar sunquist (20 Games)

[@agnethaladuff8559]

I doubt that Top 6 Hockey read the comments .

[@cydneyb707]

You can't look at Wiseman's hit on the linesman and not think that was intentional...there's no confusion there

[@ghijkmnop]

Don Murdoch - 40 games in 1978 for cocaine possession.

[@Zlay3rz]

torres, 41 games?

[@Zlay3rz]

oh i get it, comments telling you you're wrong are 'viewer interaction'

[@csnide6702]

Lysiak McSorley Bertuzzi All had longer suspensions

[@Hansonov15]

You forgot Tom Wilson in preseason 2018-19 27 games

[@SherryLee-s5e]

😂😂Willy still living RENT free❤❤

[@johnshields6852]

I played hockey for 30 years, you think he hit the ref by mistake, lol, so many fans know nothing about the game.

[@SherryLee-s5e]

& sadly theres Trouba, Reaves, E. Kane, Zadorov, Dumba55 etc...

[@timelliott4117]

Please, Wideman knew what he was doing. As he skated towards the bench you can see he has no trouble, before he got to the Ref his arms went up. He was in control. Since when is it ok to hit someone from behind, and A ref no less

[@Corbin2012]

You forgot mcsourly

[@goalscorerlajon]

Don Henderson is a LINESMAN not a REFEREE. REFS wear orange arm bands. LINESMEN don't.

[@martinkopberg1591]

You’re defending wideman why?

[@Hockeyarcadeandcoins]

Me watching this video while my name is Joseph 😳

[@Xsar1942]

Wideman is cleary doing that on purpose lmao

todd bertuzzi? Torres?

Where's tom wilson? 20 game suspension..

[@andreww9791]

Did you even try? There was some huge ones you left you.

[@haydenw1234]

No Bertuzzi Or Torres?

[@rolandkennedy80]

Orlov hit isn't cheap at all. Why show it when it's clean

[@krakhedd]

Wideman, I think was either dazed from that hit or had an undiagnosed concussion from it

[@charliebackman7968]

[@phillycardshark9257]

Check out a classy guy by the name of Steve Durbano... Not sure...but I believe he was banned for life.

[@woxyroxme]

No, he went to the WHA to play for the Birmingham Bulls

[@farisibrahim2661]

Me and my homies hate Gordie Dwyer, and yes I know he's not the same person as referee Gord Dwyer.

[@Galzac]

i love hard hockey but this Suspensions are to soft we cant have it like this.

[@hodgo7263]

So fucking stupid to me that punch ons are pretty much part of the fabric of NHL and even used strategically *legally* but if certain people don’t like it or they punch too hard criminal charges are brought into it ?? The footage of Maloney only shows punches maybe this video doesn’t show using the hockey stick as a weapon

[@canuck2444]

As bad as simons slash was I'm surprised hollweg didn't even get a penalty for boarding. I guess the game didn't have enough softies yet to make the NHL change the rules.

[@joeymaterese8095]

Your so wrong soòooooooooo he hit him in the head with stick

[@sebastiancassorla7055]

Hit on Kesler was good

[@andrew94939]

You cursed

Dirty players have to make up for what they lack in skills & they always hurt players that are skilled!

[@mikemol5995]

How many seasons should the Commissioner and Board of Directors be out for mandating the clot shots for players? Well done Tyler Bertuzzi and the others who refused to comply. They are true role models.
