f*** the suspension. Next time Pittsburgh plays New York, Boogaard needs to end Cookes career. He has no respect for his fellow players and is only interested in hurting people. Guys like that in the old days didnt have long careers. f*** Matt Cooke. (And I dont even like Ovechkin, I just hate cheapshot pricks like Cooke.)

Their captain should really speak out against plays like this.

Matt Cooke is a p.o.s. That's all.

This is one of my biggest problems with the NHL's disciplinary philosophy; had Ovechkin tore his ACL or MCL from that very same hit, it would be front page news and people would already be talking about suspensions rivaling anything we've seen thus far this year. However, because Ovechkin was able to get up from the hit without being seriously injured, it's unlikely Cooke gets a suspension at all. Suspensions should be dealt with little regard to resultant injury and a primary focus on the intent.

Cooke won't get anything, he's a Penguin.

I don't think he should be suspended, I do however think he should have his career ended by a cheap shot in the next game

Please don't fire me.....

Green Bay wins 24-21. You heard it here first.

Rinne was a disaster at times last season in the playoffs.

It's confirmed to be a $1M deal. So it won't really hurt the Avs even if he gets injured, and it also shows that anyone who thought he was doing this for the money (i.e. idiots) were wrong. 3 years younger than the best defenseman in the league.

this is why I could never play in this league (besides the fact I am not good enough, but that's another topic! )if a player blatently tried to injury me that way and possibly end my season or career, I would have gotten up a reeled my stick back and two handed him right in the back of the neck!

And I wonder how many hits he'll get out there before the NHL hits back and ends his career. What's it gonna take, NHL?

Phil Kessel.

what a dirty play. malkin out so he tries to put ovi out for the year too? there is no room in the game for this. this is irresponsible and selfish. what a dick. suspend this *******.

Should result in a suspension. Cooke led with his knee the whole way.

Indeed. Or if someone doesn't like your personal opinion they make stupid worthless non hockey comments.

They look bored, too. I don't think they are, don't get me wrong. But you can't let opportunities like the last two games (or any game) go to waste like this. The Wings made Columbus and Nashville look like Cup winners. They didn't have to be very good to beat the Wings, let's face it. Jokes about Vezina winning efforts in opponents' nets aside - neither goalie had to ratchet out of daily practice mode to stop all the Wings' 69 shots on goal the last two games. The Rangers should be afraid of facing a pissed-off Wings team. I bet they're not. They're going to come out and try to rip this team's heads off, and they probably will succeed if no one shows up to play again. Avery will have every right to make fun of his former team. To whom much is given, much is expected. No one is going to give you anything in this life, Wings. You have to work for it. I miss seeing a work ethic out there. Stop expecting 'the other guy' to do all the work. ALL of the Wings need to show up, each of them assuming they are going to be the key factor in winning this game, and every game. They should never step on the ice expecting to lose. It should honestly surprise them when they don't win. Take whatever happened and then attack it... go out there and fix it. Never let it happen again. I dearly miss that work ethic on the ice and in the locker room. We had it once. We don't right now.

I couldn't agree more. I love our boys but to be honest I'm getting bored with them .

F**k the ex players. What the hell do they know about hockey that could be so interesting? Nobody needs their insight. Besides, NBC sucks at covering hockey. This probably means they won't start airing games until January.

I like Charissa Thompson too. She doesn't flirt or oogle over the players. She's gorgeous and professional.

that is Benanati and I hope they kept Lindsay Soto, that other chick who does the hawks telecasts and vs had too scary of a voice i thought

Hopefully everyone is fired except Charissa. She could run the whole show and that'll be fine with me

The defense problem is poor overall team defense?
