    Thats after thornton asked the league what he could of done differently and they simply could not give an answer.
    I was laughing when the announcers said that he basically screwed for being so tall...it was his fault the other guy was shorter.

      Here it is for you to see. First off, he didn't have the puck. I don't give a shit how tall Joe is, if you watch the video, it is clear that Perron was not even looking at Thorton coming, he had his head down trying to get a pass, and Thorton goes to hit him. So that right there, is a no-no and something the league is trying to crack down on. Blind side hits, where a guy is in a vulnerable position.

      Now for his size thing. Seriously Joe, shut the fuck up. You know how tall you are, and I don't hear Chara crying foul or taking suspensions and that guy is bigger then you. Big men need to learn to hit like big men. Sure it looks in the video like a shoulder hit, but it is still to a vulnerable player and to his head.

      If only Joe would get this fired up during Sharks playoff runs
      All you need to know when thinking of the NHL vs Madden series is the two people involved in making the games.

        Only one game tonight...flipping between Red Wings & MNF.

        edit: nice redirection to end the game in OT for the Red Wings.

          Apparantly the big rumour this morning is Bettman is going after Bug Seligs job for MLB commissioner.

          Leafs offseason training!

                If this happens, it should be a National Holiday for Canadians.

                Only issue is, does the rest of the idiots go with him, because it all isn't Bettman. New guy might come in and be just as bad about things and about the not moving to Canada stuff as well. Of course this would be perfect for Bettman as he loves himself some southern. Will be right at home not having to go to Canada anymore, except for the odd Blue Jay game.

                    No touch icing, no more instigator. It sounds alright to me!

                        The leafs PowerPlay is so ass backwards its almost baffling.

                        If anyone ever wants to show kids how not to do a powerplay please just show them a couple leaf PPs.
