yes, I play hockey. I understand that you're wrong.

Agree to disagree. We can argue about who played in better leagues though <3

[Palin]

Leaving your feet is barely part of the criteria anymore for a suspension, not sure why people put so much stock into it. Principal point of contact.

Youre the one saying that its okay to jump into a hit.

[nicholai]

I don't like this Nicholai turd, why do we always get these scrubs come spring

That's hurtful. I'm just saying something different and you attack me. But that's how Crosby fans usually are.

I said it was a bad hit, just that he probably wont get as much as people think because they will say it wasn't as bad as it looked. I could be wrong but it's the playoffs they dont like suspending for long.

yeah I know...suspensions in the playoffs never happen.

This hit, in game 3 of the cup finals, was worth 4 games (5 if you consider the fact he was given a game and it was only 5 minutes old). Seabrooks hit was MUCH worse.

idiot

I say gone for the rest of the series.

The precedence?

Ask Rafi Torres about that from a few years ago lol. Granted he's a giant shithead and known for dirty plays/hits, where as Seabrook isn't...but they gave him a nice long suspension after he killed Hossa.

Did I say he wouldn't get suspended? Again, no, just that it might not be 5+ games. Granted it will probably be for the rest of this series/hawks playoffs.

No, Rafi is a known head hunter, Seabrook isn't, so they're not going to throw the book at him. 2 games I'm saying.

Leaving your feet is just if its a charge or not so yeah it doesnt really matter lol.

Brutal hit by Seabrook...a couple of games easy. Even if he didn't leave his feet before the hit (and shit on TV they even said he was on the ice by a toe...) head was the principal point of contact.

[bluefan]

Man, hope the Jackets and Pens game can follow through with that one.

Need more OT. Please.

Pretty, fucking please.

I think any illegal hit causing injury should be suspended at minimum through the remainder of the series provided it wasn't delivered during the series-deciding game. They can make open ended suspensions, they suspended Cooke the one year "through the first round of the playoffs" for the McDonaugh elbow and never specified a concrete number. They just suspended him for the last couple regular season games plus all of the Penguins first round games, regardless of how long it went.

I think I laughed out loud at this for at least 3 minutes straight.

Portillo's is the only thing I seriously miss about Chicago.

I think Torres got rest of the series against the Kings last year.

I think Torres got rest of the series against the Kings last year.

Hence the picture. 2-5 seems about right for that irresponsible headshot.

[Oxyminus]

Quick....Who has the Wheel'O'Justice handy?!?

I wouldn't put it past the league to only give Seabrook 2-3 games.

*Yes, I'm pulling out the conspiracy theory card...Chicago is the most well known/marketable team in the West...until everyone gets on the Teemu retirement train.
