I was just about to say the exact same thing.

I thought hits like that were banned. But hey, lets celebrate some nice head shots (kriya and lindros)

Good thing they returned Gustafsson to Adirondack.

I love that they're celebrating blindside hits, it really sells the whole 'taking that out of the game' message.

the stevens hit on kariya was as dirty as they come. blindside. no puck. hunted. i'm not sorry that stevens retired because of concussion problems.

When Stevens destroyed Kariya with that hit in the SCF, does anyone remember how many games Kariya missed?

Many of those hits would have resulted in suspensions in todays game. I found it kind of disgusting.

Referring to yourself in the third person but using your screen name is.

I don't have a problem with Foster. He hasn't played in probably a month +, so I'm sure he will struggle tonight. I have no clue why Gervais is constantly in the lineup. He (frank)ing blows.

if anyone can explain why Gervais was signed at all, I'd like to know. It's not like he's disappointing me, I expected nothing more from him.
