The bad thing is WTF is a suspension and what is not.
Torred did nothing to help the team in his return to the line up if anything he hurt us. He took dumb penalties and now gave the hawks some anger in their bellies.
The best thing the nucks could do is play COHO and sit Torres a couple
question #1.. 100%Agreed...from what I know(which isn't much
) the NHL sent out a dvd to all teams regarding the "new headshot/blindside rules" and what is and isn't a good hit, the area behind the net is a "danger zone" in which players NEED to know that they WILL be hit, and that they must be aware,heads up when going behind the net...i.e Seabrook said he knew Torres was there but "thought he was behind me"...doh! in that area don't assume ANYTHING!....
point #2...IMO...Torres was a big PLUS to the Canucks game,took some pressure off other team mates to make the big hits,ie Edler,Errhoff,and he has a job to do,
I'm not a betting man but I would take a bet that there's not 1 coach, GM,player in the NHL that would say any different if he was on THEIR team rite now...just look at Sh#%hawks from last year with guys like Eager,Lad,Buffoon, ect,...
dumb penalties are all how you look at the game,and how it's being called
point #3...NEVER going to happen.....why do you think coach Q and the whole of the hawks are whining(not winning
) its so that Kane,Towes,Seabrook,Keith,ect.ect. wouldn't have to worry about where/when he is on the ice....
