Top Ducks prospect suspended for slew foot incident

The Ontario Hockey League suspended Beckett Sennecke, a top prospect for the Anaheim Ducks, for two games due to a slew foot incident during a game against the Ottawa 67's on March 14. Sennecke received a match penalty after hitting defenseman Matthew Mayich from behind. The suspension is notable as it is considered harsh compared to typical penalties for similar infractions. Sennecke had already served one game of his suspension after being ejected in the second period of the match, which the Generals lost 3-2. Oshawa Generals played without Sennecke in their next game against the Sudbury Wolves but managed to win 3-2. The team is currently competing for a playoff spot as the regular season nears its end.
