Kadri crosschecked a guy in the face three months ago.
Had Naslund suffered PCS from the headshot from Moore and never played another game in the NHL, should Moore have been banned for life?
Which, back in the day, would have been a nightly occurrence for Chris Simon.
Absolute nonsense. One was a legal hit in an actual hockey play, the other was pre-meditated assault after a game ended. Stop it.
Dale Hunter gave Pierre Turgeon a blinded elbow to the head WELL after the play was dead and Turgeon scored a goal. Should he be banned for life?
My point is the league is full of player who have done as bad or worse than Bertuzzi but we’re lucky the results weren’t as horrible. I can’t justify banning one player due to results when others commuting more dangerous and reckless actions get a pass.
I'm sorry but I just don't see how one could think this is even remotely comparable to the Moore incident.
Bertuzzi barely hit him and it was his own players dog piling him and his own negligence to not do up his chin strap that caused the injury.
Steve Moore was a still a little **** for not stepping up to answer his dues though. If you do something like that you better prepare to fight in the next game.
Ummm...Moore did fight.
Guaranteed your follow-up will be "yeah, but it wasn't enough".
Interesting perspective.
