I am making an addendum.

I will be happy with a good, clean, skillful series. I don't care who wins (well obviously I wish for the Wings to win). But I want to see ZERO referee mishaps, ZERO faceoff cheating/complaining, and ZERO Shanahanigans affecting the outcome of this series.

I changed my mind, I want some Shanahanigans for Rosival cross check to Abby's head and Shaw doing a flying elbow. Suspend some of these jerks. Aren't they supposed to be sending a message not to go for the head?

Cross check to Abby

Shaw's Flying Elbow wrestling move (not to mention Kindl was already engaged from another Hawk player, isn't it a penalty to hit an already engaged guy?)

The league has made it clear, hits to the head are ok as long as it is not a shoulder or an elbow. I don't know how the league can look at that video and see nothing wrong. Not only was the head the principle point of contact, it was just about the only point of contact.

It's just ridiculous what guys can get away with. Abby could have been seriously injured and Shaw's stunt was as dirty as it gets.

So, not a peep out of the NHL offices about the two incidents in the Wings-Hawks game? Color me surprised. I mean no, not at all.
