    I couldn't agree more...when the skill players are allowed to display thier skill the game can be a thing of beauty. I go back to last years game 7 Vancouver vs. Chicago...still one of the best games I've ever seen.

    Please don't make me think about that game. :evil:
    Here that! Had to get a new playstation controller after that - had to throw something.

    Shanahan suspends Shaw 3 games....what a fucking joke this guy is.
    Life long Blackhawk fan. I agree, 3 games? There was no intention.
    I`ve been around hockey all my life - Dad was drafted by Detoit (played some games), spent most time in minors, playing, then as playing coach (oldtime hockey), then straight coaching. The game changes. He says goaltenders should tend goal, the crease is there for a reason. Now goalies want to come out and play the puck, some like Smith are throwing head fakes. As soon as they do this they are no longer goalies but acting as a player and should be treated as such, this is a contact sport - keep your head up!



    No intention at all. It would be one thing if Shaw went in there and just laid out the goalie, but that wasn't the case. For Shaw to get 3 games and Weber to get a fine for what he did just boggles my fucking mind. This Shanahan thing better only last for 1 year....

    I don't understand this suspension, and never will. You can't make and example of someone after the playoffs have started. There have been numerous far more severe hits this postseason without any games lost. You start changing the game when you are not consistent with your suspensions and fines. It has to be called the same, that's all I'm saying. Bullshit! Suspend Smith for terrible acting then also.
    I am lost, I'm no guide, but I'm by your side

    if i were in charge, the rest of the playoffs...only way you'll get it to stop is make the penalty hurt...he didn't need to leave his feet...it would have been a solid hit if he hadn't jammed his shoulder into hossa

    well Nashville/Detroit is over

    Detroit has outplayed them and has more talent

    Nashville has what it needs to win the series, the better goalie and the better defensive structure

    that 2nd Nashville goal was down right embarrassing, 3 players trailing Erat and Howard selling out too, leaving Klein open in front of the net with that wide open

    and the first goal wasn't much better

    Brutal late hit on Hossa from Torres tonight. I hope Hossa is alright.

    That was so damn pathetic. It made me sick to keep seeing the replay of that.

    Torres should get a solid 10 games if not an indefinite suspension....absolutely ridiculous and if shanahan wants to make an example out of anyone, here's his golden opportunity. What a bullshit hit. Saw that the commissioner is at the UC watching the game, he better have a talk with shanahan.
