if bergeron or horton or whomever, pulled himself out of a Stanley Cup final game only to be ready for the next one in 48 hours i'd be really upset. - Fountain-San
Then you have no experience with separations and/or back/neck issues. You just saw Horton pop his shoulder our on a play with almost no contact in game 1. That can also happen in any number of ways in warmups or off the ice.
If this were someone other than Hossa who has a history of avoiding contact you may have had a point.

you have no idea what injuries i have experience with.
I feel your pain John. But your team is pretty solid. Don't let a beat down by the Bruins change your opinion too much. Your team is good. I watch Boston against the Leafs in the forst round. They did the same to us. IF Chicago has any chance they need o get inside of Rasks head, and the way you do that is bump him. often. but he's had a protected field day. And stop the line matchups. Just play a faster game.
Good luck in the rest of the series. - Martin Cinzar
Good post. I would love to see all of that. Particularly more contact with Rask.
I won a Toews bobblehead (from the Blackhawks web site) and I brought it to work to decorate my desk. I am superstitious when it comes to playoff hockey, so after we were down 3-1 to Detroit I let one of my employees (another Hawks fan) keep Toews on her desk but she would have to smack some sense into him. So every day (all day) she flicks the Toews bobblehead and so far it's brought good luck. Last week she went on vacation to Mexico, so we decided she should bring Toews there to continue the routine.
Here is a picture of Toews in Mexico (he's back home now):

that said if it's a separation issue fine. - Fountain-San
Doesn't matter.
You're comments around Hossa and playing/not playing last night are beyond moronic. If it was Alexander Karpotsev no one on the board would have an issue, but Hossa? Get a clue.
BTW: Look at whose visor is on and whose is off. Yeah...And Marchand was the instigator as well. - CaptainBlackhawk
Marchand the instigator? Shaw slashed his leg and then grabbed him from behind.
I'm not overly bothered by the whole thing, but at least be rational about it. If Marchand had done what Shaw did, you'd all be calling him a gutless puke.
