No one deserves to get hit in the head, but if he didn't throw a hit that caught Keith in the head, none of this would've happened, he didn't have to hit him the way he did...therefore he paid the price. Again, not sure why that's so difficult to understand.
Nevermind. Not going there anymore. Not doing any good.
The thing I find funny is that had Keith not elbowed D. Sedin in the face, and had TSN not brought it up only a few would have even thought Sedin's hit on Keith to be a cheap shot to the head. You just have to browse through both GDTs. Not even a single mention when it happened.
Only reason that hit is being blown out of proportion is the fact that, to some, it 'justifies' or rationalizes Keith's elbow. Even to the point where some think it's even worse than Keith's elbow!
While that's probably true, you do realize that it just makes the punishment on Keith more severe right? Not sure why that's so difficult to understand.
Yup, yet it keeps getting thrown around by everyone as though it's justification.
As someone said a few posts back- this is Bertuzzi all over again. Moore does cheapshot Naslund, he's probably still in the NHL today (or more accurately the AHL).

Yes, which is why I think he'll get anywhere from 3-6 games, anything more than that I will be very surprised, so again....what's your point?

Wow, sometimes I think there should be minimum reading standards for this board. Let me post a definition:
em·pa·thy
[em-puh-thee] Show IPA
noun
1.
the intellectual identification with or vicarious experiencing of the feelings, thoughts, or attitudes of another.
For the 87th time....I do not condone what he did, he went crazy, and he will pay the price, but do I understand on some level why he did what he did....yes because of the hit Sedin threw. Wow.
