[OFFICIAL] - Around the NHL thread

[King Of The North]

I made a few posts in the General thread about Hansen and the best comment was "Hansen though the puck was going above his head".

So then why did he try to go over Hossa's head? Logical decision here would have been to play the man once Hossa touched the puck instead of trying to reach for it by decapitating him

Wasn't he the longest serving coach in the NHL? (if not Pro Sports)

Id give him 15 games.

Nearly half the season for that?

Deliberate head shot, to a star, who's in a vulnerable position, by someone who's a scrub.

Yep, start with ten games minimum. Fifteen wouldn't surprise me.

I'd suspend him for the year just because he pulled a Canucks jersey over his head.

Hansen has a on phone conference hearing with Shanahan, so a maximum suspension of 5 games. He'll probably get 1-2, but it should be more. It was undeniably reckless and maybe even slightly malicious.

[TheHudlinator]

1 game suspension for Hansen, thought he should get 2-3 but at least the league took action.

Hall with a very dangerous and dirty hit on Clutterbuck, gets 5 and a game should be a suspension.

Not if you ask Edmonton fans

Incredibly reckless. There has to be suspension on that.

Looks like DiPietro to be placed on waivers by noon. I doubt anyone picks him up....

[TheHudlinator]

I got an infraction on the oiler board too. But I definitely deserved it. I went on there and really spoke my mind about there fans and organization. The post lasted about a minute and I had an infraction.
