Wondering what warranted that 10-game suspension for Jeremy Yablonski?

I spoke with the AHL's director of hockey operations, Bill Scott, this evening. And here are the particulars behind Yablonski's "physical abuse of officials" game misconduct, a category 2 offense that carries with it -- at a minimum -- an automatic 10-game suspension. Yablonski received the penalty Saturday night, during that second-period melee with Syracuse.

"In this case, our linesman (Jameel) Chaudry was holding onto him, trying to keep him away from fighting," Scott said. "And while Chaudry was holding onto him, it was reported that Yablonski got ahold of Chaudry's jersey, held it tight to him, and there was a report of a -- I don't know if you want to call it a punch -- but maybe a quick jab to the chin of Chaudry."

The incident was not captured on video, Scott said. But it was detailed in a report by the game's on-ice officials, as well as an NHL officiating supervisor, who was in attendance and witnessed the sequence as well.

Scott said the incident did not show up on video, but that it was detailed in a report by the game's on-ice officials, as well as an NHL officiating supervisor, who was in attendance and witnessed the sequence as well.

The fallout will cost the B-Sens a vocal leader and a physical presence until Jan. 15, when Yablonski is eligible to return to the Binghamton lineup for a home game against Wilkes-Barre/Scranton.

"I guess my reaction was, well, 10 games is 10 games," he said. "It was out of my hands, and it was up to the league to make the ruling. And I've just got to go with it. Now I guess I'm just going to keep working hard off the ice, and on the ice in practices, and help the team out off the ice as much as I can for us to win games."

Asked if, in his opinion, he did something to a linesman to warrant that suspension, Yablonski said: "Everything was happening so fast. I was just trying to help my teammates out. ... Whether I did something, I mean, that was over the line? I guess the league thought I did. And I guess I'll just have to deal with the 10-game suspension."

Boo for no video of Yabo beating the refs

I would have love to see this on video....too bad its not available.

I already posted this, but here again..

Bingo splits the 2 game series in Norfolk, lost Fri night 3-1, winners tonight 5-4..

Well, either I missed it..but I don't see where Yablonski hit the ref..

That's what everyone has been saying..

so they are taking the ref's word...with no video support for that claim??

Who was in net tonight? Who scored?

We have Chris Holt in net w/ 25 saves, Kinrade w/ his 2nd of the year, Daugavins his 10th, Hamel 12th, Z. Smith 5th and Derek Smith w/ his 6th game winner w/ less than 2 min in the 3rd..

Next up; Sat night in Bingo vs Adirondack Phantoms

Hamel has how much time left on his contract?

Man, is it ever too bad that Hamel never worked out in the bigs!

Jasmine, it's year 3 of a 3 year deal, no idea what he's going to do next season as he was going to see how this season goes first..

From your point of view..how is his game so far this season? Is he consistent?

He's been really good this year, feeding off of St Pierre has benefited Hamel but I don't know how that knee is holding up..

Does he look like he plays with pain? Do you see a difference in his skating from begining to end of a game?

The truth is Hamel is Bingo's Alfy. Man does he have heart!

Bingo loses at home vs Adirondack 3-2 in front of a packed house..Brodeur had a meltdown w/ Bingo up 2-0 heading into the 3rd and Mike gave up 3 goals on Phantoms first 4 shots..team didn't show up in the 3rd as well..

Told the media wished to speak with him following Saturday night's 3-2 loss to Adirondack, he didn't delay, didn't duck out the back. He walked right out of the dressing room, stood before three cameras and a tape recorder. And asked what happened in the third period, when the B-Sens let a 2-0 lead slip away, he said:

"What happened, I sucked. I let the guys down. They played a great game, and I sucked."
