I was surprised Kesler didn’t get a game or two for what happened with Clutterbuck. Knowing the league he probably didn’t hear from Shanny because Clutterbuck got up and skated away. As with the skill of the player targeted, that shouldn’t matter but it does.

I hated Matt Cooke, for the record.

Anyway it’s pretty clear that you have zero objectivity on any subject involving the Canucks, no willingness to grant that people who disagree with you might not have overly simplistic views or opinions, nothing to offer to any serious discussion. So yeah.

that was the first time i seen a Sedin throw a check… Keith was watching his pass. clean slightly late check followed up by a dirty cheap dick move.

But also because the hit on Keith is run-of-the-mill in this league and not worth further comment. A premeditated elbow to the head of the reigning Art Ross trophy winner is on an entirely different level than a bump in the corner which should’ve been a minor penalty.

Isn’t Cooke playing on Crosby’s line now?

To get EVERYONE’S attention, sometimes an example needs to be made.

Go the Cooke route. Rest of the season and first round of the playoffs. That will send a message and actually hurt him and his team. Otherwise, he just gets some rest for the upcoming post season.
