Bertuzzi gets 12 game and the playoffs.
I thought he'd get a longer suspension.

TORONTO - The National Hockey League on Thursday suspended Vancouver Canucks forward Todd Bertuzzi for the remainder of the season, including the playoffs, after a vicious on-ice attack earlier in the week that left an opposing player with a fractured neck.
The league also said it would consider Bertuzzi's eligibility for the 2004-2005 season.
"We want to make clear that this type of conduct will not be tolerated in the NHL," Colin Campbell, NHL executive vice-president said in a statement.

It's too bad the fans have to suffer but the league did the right thing. Do I hear a full year suspension?

Bertuzzi got what he deserved from the NHL. Now he needs to be criminally charged and sued by Moore. What a goon.
Anyway, Since I correctly called the NE Patriots the SuperBowl Champs a few months before the game, I think I'll go out on another limb and say the Ottawa Senators will win this years Stanley Cup. Lest face it. This is a good balanced, well coached hockey team that can taste it, coming to within 5 minutes of the final last year.
Would I like to pick the Leafs? Sure but injuries are sure to mount and they'll eventually sucumb to a more rested and healthy team.
You heard it hear first, the Ottawa Senators, 2003/04 Stanley Cup Champions.

They are saying they will still decide on next years eligibility

``I had no intention of hurting you and I feel awful for what transpired,'' Bertuzzi said.
biggest crock of shit evar
The NHL also fined the Canucks $250,000 and said Bertuzzi will forfeit $501,926 of his $6.8 million salary this season. The league said the 29-year-old Bertuzzi's eligibility for next season will be determined by Commissioner Gary Bettman before training camp. One factor will be the physical condition of Moore, who's in stable condition at a Vancouver hospital and will miss the rest of the season.

:P What a third period that was - I think it took about 45 minutes to finish the last 5 minutes of the game. True to form, the Philly fans booed on the two faceoffs where someone didn't immediately drop the gloves I vote for Bertuzzi's suspension to last through next year, or at least a big part of it. When Hextall rushed Chelios he got a 1/4-1/2 year suspension the following year (of course, it was the Flyers last game), and that was just for fighting.
I don't know if picking the Pats was exactly risky domn
The Sens though....

With all these financially challenged teams dumping talent, the last month will be interesting. The Rangers are trading off player left and right. How can you New Yorkers stand for the way they are running that franchise?

They are the anti-Yankees - doesn't matter how much money they spend on a team, they still suck.Lindros who?

Who are the five brighties that voted for Toronto?
A team that loses to the worst team in the leaugue at home while battling for playoff postioning and first overall has no chance of doing anything. What the leafs need is a system. With Quinn they have no such system, its just go out and play. All the teams who've won anything in the last 10 years have a great system in place. I'm watching yesterday's game and I see Antropov and Ponikorovsky on the penalty kill???? WTF you have Ron Francais and Joe Nieuwendyk two of the premier penalty killers in the leugue on the bench?? Is that coaching? And Quinn has never been known to match lines come playoff time. Their opponenst are always one step ahead of them, which IMO will be the case this year as well.

WTF was with that game?? I tuned in only a couple minutes into the first period and Tampa already had a two man advantage! I knew it wasn't going to be a good night from that point on so I went to a movie instead.
