Flames GM summed my feelings up well. Love the player, hate what he did, agree with and support the suspension.

I love Tkachuk and the edge he plays on during play. Just wish he'd stop doing crap outside of the play
See Baxterman? it is possible to condemn the actions of a player you love. Several Flames fans have done it and they did not spontaneously combust or anything.

If there was something to condemn I would do it.

I regularly criticize the Flames and Flame players. If you ask Flames fans here I doubt any of them would call me a homer.

Spearing players on the ice when you're on the bench has never and will never be accepted in the game. If you think nothing was wrong with what he did and can't fathom why the NHL would suspend him for this then you just don't have a clue. This spear would not have gotten him a suspension if he was on the ice. If he taps or punches Witkowski when they're in a scrum and not while he's being sent off the ice, he wouldn't have been suspended.

You can be a pest and not get idiotic suspensions.

So what do you think of the multiple Flames fans saying he did do something wrong and deserved a suspension?

he definitely deserved to get suspended as a repeat offender.

Funny how everyone hates him but flames fans just love the kid

It's pretty normal. You've got yourself a young Alex Burrows there, who seems like he could be considerably more talented as well. I wouldn't say I hate him though, yet anyways.

Let's hope he stays on the Burrows side of the pest spectrum and doesn't stray towards the Cooke side, also known as the dark side.

It certainly wasn't a suspendable play.

The "elbow" to Doughty was very minor made to look worse by Doughtys pathetic dive.
This. Doughty is a little bitch. Proves it all the time. Tkachuk owns his ass. Making kraft dinner in his kitchen before the game even starts.
