Still whining about that? If Daniel doesn't deliver a high hit himself, there is no blindside elbow.

Hit was a bit cheap in my opinion in that Hank had his head turned behind him. Not sure how the Rome hit received a 4 game ban as it was similar. Thought it was a clear case of the "no respect" issue that everyone's been talking about. Up to the Canucks to respond to it. They need Carkner.

Carkner should be banned from the NHL for that incident. This hit was clean.

Hit was clean but cheap is what I'm saying. And that I think Henrik was more vulnerable on this hit than Horton was on Rome's hit.

edit: woah, woah, woah. Carkner should be banned from the NHL?

Carkner did exactly what he needed to do. He knows his job.

I have a feeling the Canucks are going to make a comeback. If they don't, it couldn't of happened to a better team.

I don't think Vancouver is going to get swept. Kings in 5 at this point.

Bertuzi did something similar that broke a guys neck, no room in the game for assualts.

At this point I'll be pissed if Schneider is traded. He's young and entering his prime and as good as Luongo. Also I want Kesler traded. He may be good short term but his body is just not gonna last. What made Kesler so good was his speed. He could get by without much offensive hockey sense. Now that he's on the same level as most other players, because of his hip, his offensive game is non existent. He doesn't have the vision to make offensive plays without speed. We should trade him while his value is highest for a young established high potential player.

Let's make a deal. Our first, minny's second, Cory Conacher and Radko Gudas for Schnieder and Raymond. Now before you balk at that offer go look up Conacher and Gudas.

Yes, standing face to face with a guy and getting a few licks in is the exact same as punching an unsuspecting guy in the back of the head and falling on him

D Sutt is a great coach. If only he never played gm, we would have had a better 6 seasons.
Happy to see a sweep here

Schneider is off the table. Terrible deal by the way. If were trading Schneider I want Connolly and your 10th

Big difference, Rome made contact with Hortons head and went from low to high. Brown's was shoulder on chest. Borderline charge, but not even close to Rome's hit...

I need something to distract from the 3-0 hole. Ergo, focus on the hit!

Are you (frank)ing kidding me? Carkner skated right after him at started beating him up, didn't even give Boyle a chance to fight back. Sucker punched him, the only difference is it wasn't from behind. He's lucky Boyle didn't get hurt.

Ok, Connolly and our tenth. That opens up a spot for our AHL guys like Conacher, Johnson, Panik or Killorn.

Brown makes contact with Henrik's head as well. Look like the same kind of hit except that Henrik had his head turned behind him.
