I was up set when i read this beacause Heatly might be getting away with it.He’s is taking chances away of possibly futur stars, he should be punished!The news is not good on the injury Toronto Maple Leafs’ defenceman Brendan Bell suffered Sunday night.

Sources tell TSN Bell was left with a laceration of his calf muscle in addition to a bone bruise. The combined injuries will immobilize Bell for 10-14 days and will likely keep him out of the lineup for a minimum of three weeks.

Bell was slashed in a “two-handed” fashion in an exhibition game on Sunday by Ottawa Senators star Dany Heatley.

Heatley was not penalized on the play, however NHL disciplinarian Colin Campbell admits the incident is being reviewed.

Campbell rarely acknowledges on-ice indiscretions unless a suspension is pending. So, it appears Heatley may have dodged the NHL’s wrath.

Bell represents the fifth Maple Leafs defenceman sidelined by injury in training camp.

Tomas Kaberle, Pavel Kubina, Staffan Kronwall and Carlo Colaiacovo are all nursing ailments that are all expected to be re-evaluated this week
