Shea Weber Should Have Been Suspended for Henrik Zetterberg Hit

Shea Weber should have been suspended for Henrik Zetterberg hit: So, let's see if we got it right ... (Stone Cold), Shea Weber hit goody-two shoes, Henrik Zetterberg in the head of the Arena tensioner Bridgestone, with Gary (Vince McMahon) Bettman sat there in the ring and then put the stick in the form of a fine that will not cover the tab bar worthy of Tutsis?

The logic is that Zetterberg was broken helmet.

Now, for me or you, or, say, the local production of CFL player earns barely enough to keep the family cat in a box Fancy a holiday, in 2500 U.S. dollars, will be a great success.

Shea Weber for, well, not so much. He picks up a cool U.S. $ 7.5 million during the season will be perennial Norris Trophy candidate, one of the most complete defenders in hockey. Gifted. Nastia. Concerns.

But in 2500 U.S. dollars, it happens, the maximum penalty permitted by the collective bargaining agreement - which, of course, so absurd for professional athletes who take more than the GNP of some small countries.

But this is just another argument for the next summer.

Thus, a pittance of U.S. $ 2,500, and that we can only assume was a severe reprimand to his father's Bull, is a measure of punishment.

So for postulating blowing hard and practiced on a firm crackdown on the head shots. Weber immersed in cash and predators do not miss the 30-minute-night for the second defender.

Residents of Nashville to be stronger than Minnie Pearl yukking on laughing gas.

It was hardly a fraction of a second reaction, one of these cases, spontaneous, time of entry into the gray, murky area of ​​debate.

The intention was obvious.

Suspension in one form or another was acquitted. The main even.

But, God, well, it's the playoffs, and God, and Shea Weber is strong it is important to predators and God, and, the league will not be charged in some way determine the outcome of the game or the series actually takes a position on the important need. . . and, as well. . . dammit!

This is worse than turtling Max Lapierre.

"It was a reactionary and irresponsible game, in which Weber threw the punch, and then watching Zetterberg put his head into the glass," said Brendan Shanahan legislator in a statement before cracking open a piggy bank and take Weber leaks with any detail. "We met after the game in Detroit and was told that Zetterberg has not suffered visible injuries and should be in line for Game 2.

"This is a game just as well that will be sent important factors in the evaluation of all incidents of Shea Weber in the rest of the playoffs."

So the fact that Zetterberg did not appear on a stretcher, escaped serious injury and actually practiced Thursday apparently doing well, good for someone to go WWE in the late playoff game playoff?

Now there is legal precedent you sure that you want on paper.

Music on Thursday in the city, Weber muttered a few "I am delighted that he is not bad"-isms, and he hopes to go incident (like a bandit). He said he had a good conversation with Shanahan (I think so, for him, anyway) and was warned that his best behavior (or a reasonable facsimile).

The appearance of the races-spiriting the latest incident is that over time we have become conditioned not be angry, or even a little surprised lameness NHL justice, his complete lack of uniformity.

This league, remember, who did not hesitate to impose a fine speaker, John Tortorella $ 20,000 for verbally punish his servant, who seems to put the integrity of the game into disrepute, but you can find in his conscience to refer to U.S. $ 2,500 fee for a player intentionally ramming melon in a glass ?

Playoffs or not, the star player or not, crack the coconut, or all such actions are worthy of suspension.

"I thought it was dirty," Zetterberg told reporters on Thursday in the city of music. "He (angry). This was a direct (impact) on the head. You look at what has happened in recent years, with head injuries, it should not belong in the game My point of view, it was very bad.
