Jordin Tootoo just ran Ryan Miller in the Preds/Sabres game. Tootoo got a charging major and a game misconduct. The way I see it, it is debatable whether Tootoo completely intended to run him. However, I don't think it warrants a suspension. If this doesn't send a message to the Sabres front office that they need to muscle up, I don't know what will. Second time he's got run like this. I'm sure there will be a video up soon.

I know hockey is a rough sport, yadda yadda yadda. But if Tootoo ran Miller purposely, knowing he's coming off an injury caused by another suspension-worthy hit by another player, then Shanny should suspend Tootoo. Enough is enough.

I don't mind hard-nosed hockey, I thought Vladdy was a god. But some of this pissy, chicken-s*** stuff they pass off for playing hard now is disgusting, and transparent. If you can't win through skill and hard work, and have to stoop to purposely running key players on the opposing team, then step away and give your spot on the roster to someone deserving, who will play the game the way it should be played.

Just my opinion. :D

On the replay I saw it looked like Miller went after Tootoo so at least he's letting them know he won't put up with that. The Sabres should have started Miller last night, we wouldn't play like that. He'd just have had to deal with Homer's butt in his face all night.

Had they not tossed Tootoo, the refs would have had to deal with scrum after scrum with Buffalo going after him, but I don't think it warrants a suspension. Took a bit (a bit, not much) of a shove from Erhoff on the play. The crowd was in the game from that point on. Although Nashville isn't a hockey hot-bed, they seem to have a good core of passionate fans.

looks to me like a 2 minute charging penalty. Miller reacted the way he did because he got smoked by Lucic

did they change the rule/wording regarding running on goalies at the last GM meeting?

He made zero effort to avoid Miller, and this time Miller was in the blue paint.

Tootoo is garbage. The league would be better if he wasn't in it. He may have started by cutting to the net but it's pretty obvious he had nowhere to go with the angle he took. As I said it's not like Miller was outside his crease.

Miller needs to start going Hextall on guys since his teammates are unable to protect him. Shanny also helped make this bed when he didn't even give Lucic a fine. It only gives credence to Ruff's overreaction saying it was open season on goalies.

The Canadiens got away with one late in the Kings game when Subban karate chopped Stoll's stick into pieces after a face-off and somehow didn't get called for it.

Sometimes I'm just baffled by the officiating in this league. Especially when the penalty in question involves the guy with the puck.

The majority of Florida's top six technically has a bunch of former Red Wings and Hawks. Just interesting enough to point out.

Fleischmann-Weiss-Versteeg

Bergenheim-Matthias-Kopecky

And when Sammy returns for action it'll have even more Wings and Hawks.
