The thing I will never understand is how come the NHLPA will come to the defense of the Tom Wilson's of the world...
What about the 5 guys he is going to injure in the next year? - Aetherial
That is a really good point. Perhaps the NHLPA needs to be named on the lawsuits against the NHL. |

Looks like Matheson watched too much WWF as a kid. What's next, jumping off the top of the boards or an atomic drop? Package up all these idiots and let them play in their own league. |

Reminds me of Brandon Manning with McDavid
why were people angry with Brandon Manning because McClavicle has a weak shoulder. |

It doesn't help that they brought a goon to be head of suspensions. |

Hey Razzledazzle1. I have a business trip to Calgary this week. You still play (or did you ever play the game), and ya got an opening for 1 extra player. I would love to play against you. Make sure you wear your padding. You will need it. Wear 2 sets. Better yet, go find another website to be the biggest f'n idiot. - Wingdings
Whoa guys back up this guy is tough |

These comments are hilarious. Talking about long suspensions and sending a message. That was a 2 for roughing if anything. It was a normal every day hockey play. Only difference was Pettersen is like 160lbs soaken wet and got manhandled. That's not a knock on pettersen just a reality. He'll fill out but what are people supposed to go easy on him because he's small? That being said I do hope the kid is okay. I don't wish injury on anyone. |

I don't think it will be a suspension, but a fine a little north of 5k. Roughing is propably a appropriate call, he was mad that he got his ankles broken on the same play by Pettersson. No one is complaining about the hit, people are complaining about the throw that came after the hit, and then more-so, the lack of response by a passive Canuck team. |

Have you ever met Mike?
Have you not been covering this game for like 20yrs? Do you honestly think it is rougher, dirtier, worse than years past?
Honestly Eklund...you are calling out MIKE MATHESON for this! Perhaps you should sit down and have a chat with possibly the most gentlemanly player in the entire NHL!!!
...and for what? playing rough on the wall? giving him a little tap beside the net?
This is way up there as one of the most disconnected comments that you've ever made.
Matheson!?!?!?!?! (shakes head, rolls eyes, waves hand, turns around walks away while flipping the bird).
When does Ringettebuzz.com start up?

Is gudbranson not in the lineup? If so I'm surprised he never did anything. Usually clean or dirty if a guy gets hit hard there's a reaction.
Edit: also lots of people are complaining about the hit. I read the comments before seeing it and was expecting the most disgusting dispicable thing you could imagine and then I seen it and the guy got pushed hard. |

...and everyone stop it with the "players don't respect each other" thing.
They are a fraternity and you are unlikely to find a stronger bond in pro sports than the NHLPA. Part of that respect is....
Playing tough on the boards with one another!!!

Agreed. This crap isn’t hockey. I’ve been playing and watching for 50 years now; share in seasons tickets since 1990. I don’t pay to see the goons. I have tickets when Edmonton comes to toronto this season. I don’t need some idiot taking out McDavid so I can’t watch him. Until the NHL takes it seriously and gives out 40-80 game range suspensions it won’t stop. Also the NHLPA needs to stand
Up for the injured player not the perpetrator. Tying suspensions to injury doesn’t work. Lets the player get away with a reckless act if there isn’t an injury. Punishment needs to be based on the stupidity and recklessness of the act. |

I disagree. They don’t allow fights in other physical sports and they don’t have the same problem with stupid plays like this or stupid retaliation crap like the Moore Bertuzzi incident. The whole European dirtynplaymthing is a
Myth. They don’t have near the same level of stupid injuries like it is claimed. In all other sports the players have had to learn to control dangerous play even with strong spur of the moment emotions running high. They have done it because such idiocy is not tolerated. NHL players would do so too. This is on the NHL and the NHLPA. |

Honestly I don't see anything dirty about the play at all. Doesn't hit him in the head, yes gives him a bit of a crosscheck to knock him into the boards, but nothing more than a 2 minute penalty in my view. Calling it predatory is a huge stretch, the puck came back down low to Pettersson, what's he supposed to do, just let him get the puck while staring at him? Pettersson needs to learn to toughen up and not be such a p***y. - Budi1782
So I guess we want WWF in the nhl? so its okay to body slam a star everytime he makes you look bad. |

Body slam? he shoved him with one arm. If it was a full grown man it wouldn't have been anything. You guys are just upset cause he got hurt which sucks but happens in a contact sport. |

What do you think would be an appropriate punishment for this ruthless act? |

So you want body slams all over the ice because you looked like a fool playing defence.

It was disgusting - the slam to the ice - and he only did it because the kid embarrassed him 10 seconds earlier. The puck was long gone by the time he did that, disgusting and pathetic revenge for getting schooled...Matheson should work on his edges maybe. |

Should there be a rule about how hard you can hit a guy? Or maybe you're not aloud to hit someone if they make you look bad. |

It was a body slam. I played d all my life and petterson was off balance and he took advantage its easy to do if you want to, Matheson had a tough game getting beat constantly. |
