or wait for the AHL.
good as he should, the suspension is ridiculous
He should have elbowed you in the head instead of Tam.
oh well..
so much for him being a man.

haha bring it on, had it happen lots cant ya tell
just call it ballet already, so sick of the NHL (No Hitting Leauge)
Which has WHAT to do with this story?
Umm how about everything, any hit in the nhl now is dealt with by a suspension or fine or some other disciplinary action, part of it directly related to all the whiney parents in the little league that cry everytime something drastic isn't done when someone gets hurt. Once your a ref you can stand up and talk your shit, untill then shut it
Suspend him yes but for up to 48 games when others have done much worse while getting less time. If that player hadn't convulsed on the ice his suspension would be no where near what it is. Its all PR
Hockey is and always has been a violent game, if you don't like it, don't play it and change the damn channel so you dont have to watch it!
Coach and general manager Andre Tourigny called the suspension, which includes the regular season and the playoffs, excessive.
As for Cormier, he is quoted as saying:
Well since YOURE the one complaining about it maybe YOU should take your own advice.
i was referring to the hits, if you dont like seeing them turn it off, so not sure where your going with that one but I assume into nonsenseland , or as you would call "home"
STILL doesnt have anything to do with the NHL tho but Im not surprised - seems you like to complain alot
Has lots to do with the NHL but I wont try to explain it to your little mind as you obviously missed my entire post there. I guess i must be complaining cause I have an opinion
Once your a ref you can stand up and talk your shit, untill then shut it
And until you're the President of the CHL or one of the members of the board that makes these decisions, shut it.
But I guess you'd still feel the EXACT same way if that was YOUR son on the ice convulsing away from serious head trauma right? You'd just do nothing and explain to your wife and son that it's just the nature of the game right?
Let's say we were playing a game of pick-up hockey on a pond and I elbowed you in the head like that, what would your reaction be after?
Once your a ref you can stand up and talk your shit, until then shut it.
As a ref, you should know that suplementary discipline has nothing to do with refereeing. The call on the ice, whether you call it an elbow or a head check or a straight match penalty is what it is, but only applies, from the ref's perspective to that game. What comes after is up to the league. This is clearly the sort of play that represents the very worst aspect of the game....that is a lack of respect for the opponent. Nobody wants to take hard clean hits out of the game, but as a ref, you should know that there are very few circumstances when an injury comes from a clean hit.
LOL well skippy if you cant follow the logic then Im thinkin you have your helmet strapped on a little too tightly.
Its always on tight, gotta watch out for those speed bumps
I have NO PROBLEM with hard hits in the NHL or in any OTHER league for that matter but this was FAR from a legal "hard hit".
ok for 1. I never said YOU had a problem with them did I? nor 2. Did I say the hit was legal. So dont put words in my mouth and for that matter if you dont like it hit that little ignore button and save us both some time.
Its called a fucking opinion and if you don't like it you can shove it up your ass. There are very clear rules on attacks on this board perhaps you need to be reminded?
