Provorov Trade Or Extension? Columbus Blue Jackets prospect Luca Pinelli has been suspended for four games [https://x.com/OHLHockey/status/1887561942887514164?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1887561942887514164%7Ctwgr%5E8d4c0e619ded8c9ef39d27cbdd547d1c459b8c8a%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fthehockeynews.com%2Fohl%2Flatest-news%2Fcolumbus-blue-jackets-prospect-ottawa-67s-captain-suspended-for-scary-high-hit-to-the-head] for a high hit to the head. The collision happened in the third period when Pinelli hit Quinn Beauchesne up high against the boards. Unfortunately, Beauchesne was knocked out from the hit and was left motionless on the ice. Pinelli appeared visibly angry after taking a few cross-checks to the back from Grant Spada, which may have contributed to his decision to take a run at Beauchesne. After the play was whistled down, Pinelli was assessed a five-minute major and a match penalty for a check to the head. The OHL's Department of Player Safety announced yesterday that Pinelli has been given a four-game suspension. He is eligible to return to the Ottawa 67’s lineup on Thursday, Feb. 13, against the Peterborough Petes.
