Following last weekend’s action, the England Ice Hockey Department of Player Safety (DOPS) have issued the following sanctions:
Jasper Quinn (Cardiff Fire) | 1 game suspension – Fighting
Ethan Lane (Streatham Redhawks) | 2 game suspension – 1 game for fighting and 1 game for exceeding 10 penalty points
Artjoms Kazaks (Romford Buccaneers) | 2 game suspension – Spearing
Additional comments: Spear to the groin area of the opposing player, with contact made.
Dylan Dix (Streatham Redhawks) | 5 game suspension – 2 games for checking from behind, 2 games for slashing after DRS review and 1 game for exceeding 10 penalty point
Additional comments: For the slashing charge, the on-ice call has been upgraded due to the retaliatory nature of the act. Player had two hands on the stick, and the action saw a downward swing and vulnerable point of contact. The offence caused reckless endangerment and injury.
Ben Ealey-Newman (Slough Jets) | 6 game suspension – 3 games for an illegal check to the head and 3 games for exceeding 20 penalty points
Additional comments: Player stepped across the ice, extending the upper body upward, and used part of the upper body to make contact with the opponent’s head or neck, causing reckless endangerment.
Lewis Hall (Billingham Buccaneers) | 3 game suspension – Fighting
Additional comments: Third man in. Player engaged with an unwilling and vulnerable opponent, after the end of period buzzer. Multiple punches were thrown and player resisted the intervention of officials.
Amber Armstrong (Fire Bees) | 1 game suspension – Checking from behind
Katerina Lossnitzer (Slough Sirens) | 1 game suspension – Fighting
Ryan Leese (Telford Tigers 2) | 4 game suspension – Unsportsmanlike conduct
Additional comments: Verbal abuse. Player to serve a three game suspension, with a further game suspended until the end of 2026 pending no further incidents involving them before the end of the year.
