I don't get how Carbomb had it dropped to 6 either. If the book says 10 it's 10. Why bother having the automatic 10 if it's subject to review.

I don't know if he sees the ice again even once he's done being suspended. AV made some comments about Carcillo's future with the organization, if I remember right. Dunno if he'll want to put him in, no matter how much grit or grind or toughness they may need against LAK.

I linked this earlier, but it's worth repeating because it explains exactly why and how the suspension was reduced. To summarize, they decided it was a category 3 offense rather than 2. Category 3 has a minimum 3 game suspension. Bettman also acknowledges that the suspension might have been longer if it occurred during regular season games. Make of that what you will...
