So the other day it was a hit from behing on Kelly, tonight it was a cross check to the head/neck of Chris Neil, Thursday in Calgary, who knows. Why the NHL only hands out 2 minute minors for these ridiculous acts is beyond me. Time to set an example and suspend people. These aren't hockey plays, they are attempts to injure.
So for all of you scoring at home, they can change a rule overnight if they want to (see Sean Avery's sticking waiving against Martin Brodeur, making it illegal out of nowhere), yet they can't seem to change rules for things that actually matter and cause injuries.
I just don't get the NHL. It's getting old.
Thoughts?

its hard to equate alfie's stick check "hooking" penalty to that cross check from whitney...but the call was 2min for each the officials need to be better than that.
thst was crazy, thanks for posting that - most of us would have missed this.
anyway, what a gross terrible infraction. he could of paralyzed C Neil with that act of stupidity - i hope he gets suspended for this. I am not interested in watching hockey with head contact like this - please NHL, remove this from the game for the sake of all parties.
