I do believe that the majority of Lightning writers, commentors and fans or over looking Henri Ikonen. He's not as flashy as Drouin or as hard nosed at Erne, but he's a good all around player that put on a bit of weight and height over the summer and his numbers have vastly improved.
13-14 KGN GP 27 G13 A28 P41 +/- +14 PIM 25
12-13 KGN GP 61 G22 A29 P51 +/- +2 PIM 30
He's almost matched his point totals from last season in half the games. I see another Ondrej Palat or even a Valteri Filppula. Call me crazy, but I was right about Palat. Ikonen turns 20 on April 17th 2014 which would make him eligible for the AHL next season.

Thornton and Neal deserve 15 games a peice. What a pair of (frank)ing ass-clowns.

Neal is one of the dirtiest players in the league He knees Marchand in the head and skates right for the bench!

what do you want for him other than bouwmeester man
nvm. I cant afford to trade anyone. I like my team, they just need to start (frank)ing producing..once silfverberg comes off IR and malkin and rinne are back...I should be alright, marty has been producing lately so

bouwmeester is my only solid defenseman, bieksa has been quietly my best one the last couple weeks along with bouwmeester...itll come together, ive been losing, but categories have been close, and ive failed to meet goalie requirements

why are these not declarations of suspension?

Intention - did he intent to injur?
Point of contact - head? knee? shoulder? back? (and was it with intention?)
History (I think this is a MINOR factor compared to other things)
Rules - Were any rules of safety broken? (hit from behind, etc)
Victims Vulnerability - Was he willing? (if attacked) Was he defenseless when contact happened? (marchand was defenseless, orpik was NOT willing)

take these into account and give the (frank)ing suspension accordingly...if a guy breaks all these rules then (frank)ing suspend him for a whole season...its time to (frank)ing bare down and start handing out full season suspensions and way longer suspensios...enough of this history and injury bullpoop, I don't give a (frank) if you sucker punch a guy and hes injured or not. even if he finished the game im giving you a massive suspension

I would give neal 20-25 games..
I would give thorton 50 games
I would give emery 70 games for his actions on holtby


(frank) the NHL is too weak.

he deserved way more than 10 games...he purposely slammed his knee into a defenseless player on the ice..in the back of the head

what a (frank)ing cheap shot ....he wasnt even on target twards marchand, he changed his route..(frank) that

if i were running this league there would be some pissed off players AND fans , but at leadt that bullpoop wouldnt happen

Ikonen is also a near lock for a contract at end of the year and will be one to watch in AHL Syracuse next season. Was great at TB's camp.
