That potential 4-5 match-up for Detroit is like a nightmare though

The interview with Quenneville after that hit was amazingly stupid. Not because of anything that Quenneville said or did, just the whole order of the interview. Micheletti leads off asking him about the hit, Quenneville obviously said what he felt and was right about it but he got so mad talking about it that it made him keep going back to that even during other questions.

Ask about that, but make it the last thing you ask about.

And that has to be at least three games for Torres. He hit him in the head and launched himself in the air before the hit.

Asham 4 games

Backstrom and Neal both got 1 game.

Love these Shanny videos.

Can't say I strongly disagree with any of those suspensions.

Is it possible to disallow Rinne from being a goalie because he is so damn big? Oh right, and the fact that he is really freaking good.

All these OT games are really messing with my sleeping habits

If Hossa has a broken jaw like is being reported, then it better be the series. I mean, he was injured and all, isn't that the grand point of all of these mindless Shanabans? The result, never the intent? It's how Nashville still manages to have their best player on the ice.

The other suspensions today, aside from Shaw, were good.

Just saw the Torres hit...brutal. This is the EXACT play that the NHL has been trying to get out of the game: deliberate head hunting and leaving your feet for a hit. Shanny absolutely has to take a strong stand here. Nothing less than the rest of the series would be acceptable and methinks he gets more.

Yeah, because it's acceptable to just charge the goaltender like that for no particular reason. :roll:

Shaw deserves 3 game just take it like a man.

Torres hit him a second later when he got rid of the puck. It was a good hockey hit but since he was down and carried out in a stretcher Torres might get suspended for that. It's b.s but it is what it is.

A good hockey hit are you serious? Did you even see it?

in the desperate attempt for ratings, the NHL has become a joke

this head hunting and cheap hits of these PO have been embarrasing to see

shanny needs to be fired, his decision not suspend that player (cant even remember his name right now) started this wave of hits, had he suspended that player for a game, I dont think the rest follows

Raffi Torres is the biggest scum in the league now that Avery is finally out. Man what is wrong with that guy? He does some raciest **** for Halloween and is a dirty player. I hope Shanny kicks him no need for that kind of garbage play.

Congrats to The Preds Pekka was unreal for you guys looks like The Wings are hitting the golf course this weekend.

Too many Blackhawks fans here I'm outnumbered. lol

Anyways Torres will get suspended and at the end Yotes will still win the series. If it wasn't for a lucky goal we'd be up 3-0.

I hate the Blackhawks and want the Coyotes to win, you're just biased.

I'm literally the only Hawks fan posting in this thread. You're just f***ing delusional.

It's amazing, I actually liked the Coyotes as a team a bunch before this series. Like...a lot.

Not anymore.
