Suspensions coming?

Mark Divver from The Providence Journal tweeted this, this morning:

It was from the Game 1 aftermath in where Bobby Robins for Providence left his feet in the second period and checked and injured Dylan Reese in the upper body / head area. Also from where Joey Mormina checked Justin Florek late in the third period setting off a melee in the third period where a sum of 67 penalty minutes were handed down. No penalties were assessed on the Robins hit to Reese by referees Geno Binda or Graham Skilliter.

More from Divver here, with quotes from Robins and P-Bruins head coach Bruce Cassidy.

I would be shocked if Joey Mormina got any suspension and less so if Bobby Robins, he of his AHL league leading penalties (316) and major penalties (36) got sat down a game, if not more.

The situation will develop more as the buildup to Game 2 draws nearer. Latest on Twitter as always.

EDIT: No suspensions forthcoming, per Divver
