Quote from article:
In his patented predatory way, Torres spotted a vulnerable Hossa in the neutral zone, just after the elite Slovak forward released the puck, and delivered him straight to Palookaville, launching off his feet and riveting a shoulder check to Hossa’s head.
This is the kind of hit I've complained about with Mike Liambas. Del Monte
was another one we had known to seek out the chance for the "ooh-ahh" hit.
To the beer drinking crowd that player is a hero. Then when their goon takes
the ice and lays out one of our players- they go screaming for his hide.
Torres needs to be finished for the playoffs plus the first 10 games of next
season no matter how far his team goes.

Great article. This years NHL playoffs have been a mess. Intensity picks up this time of year, but it's unbelievable how dirty alot of the games have been.
Torres,Neal and Asham recieved well deserved intent to injure suspensions, but then what the hell was Shea Weber trying to do to Zetterberg? There's no consistency with the discipline handed out. |

It could be argued that by not suspending Weber, the NHL set a bad precedent. How many times was "but you didn't suspend Weber" said at these disciplinary hearings? |
