NHL Suspensions

[jeSteR]

Apparently, Shanny is going to do this for every infraction that goes across his desk.

This is freaking awesome, and long overdue.

i like shanny at the helm. he "gets" it. he knows and hears what the fans are saying. i wonder if the BOG are willing to fire dbag bettman and hire shanny as the commish lol

whoa, Brendan Smith gets the rest of the preseason + 5 reg season games for that hit to ben smith... it was pretty brutal yes, but at what point does a player with his head down trying to toe drag into the middle of the ice stop having to worry about being hit or touched? I suppose i like and dislike the suspension because you're gonna have everyone skating with their heads down now... i think i can go into the nhl and try to skate lindross style now...

i like how detailed shanny is but still, toe drag into that area? sigh
