And why wasn't Phaneuf suspended for his hit on Kopecky?

Good. I like Cowan, but enough head shots.

[Yzerfan1999 81]

Didn't see the hit, anyone with a video?

[russianswede919293 95]

Good he deserved it.

[Booster313 138]

Was it a really nasty hit??? I watched the game and I don't remember anything too terrible, I must have missed it.

I guess i missed that shot. That makes me think that it was not all that serious but again, i have not seen it.

I find it hard to believe that he it was a worse hit then what Dion the ***** pulled off. I'm in shock that he has not been suspended yet. Do you really think that he is going to get away high and dry with no suspension?

My question exactly...can we say double standard?????

[juice71285 2]

Phaneuf is the new Pronger which means he will get away with a lot more, and the only a suspension will happen is if it is so blatant to the entire league that they have to suspend him. I've noticed nowhere else is there any mention of this hit, which I believe warrants a 1-3 game suspension myself.

Is the Comments section open? Somebody comment on this shoddy reporting. That is unforgivable. I thought the American media was a joke... my goodness.

[TRD604 8]

good. i hate cowan.

[Vincanni 1]

Dirty hit but not as bad as Phaneuf's disgraceful display.

definately

[Kira 451]

Yeah, but like I said, there is a double standard. Someone mentioned Pronger, and I think the same double standard is used on him as well. If one of our guys tried a hit like that he'd be gone for a week or more, you can bet on it. It's not exactly kosher, believe me. I keep hoping that karma comes back to bite both of those douchebags right in the cojones.

[Chairman Maouth 97]

Sorry guys, but that hit just wasn't that bad. Worthy of a suspension? I almost puked when I heard he got a game. He got his hands high into the face and it was worthy of a 2 minute roughing penalty, nothing more. The NHL has gone suspension-crazy. You see worse hits every single game, and I have no idea why Cowan was cut from the pack for this one, unless the Wings made a formal complaint or something like that. But if they're complaining about that hit, they're going to be filing complaints every game.

I doubt it. Nobody or the league is intentionally out to get the Wings I think.
