I would cry.....

now you know how I felt after that game 7..i'll never forget the gutless feeling I had was like...WTF??? then I realized it was more than the Bruins running Tukka Rask ragged .... then when the Bruins returned last year and swept the Flyers...sweet revenge....

25 games for Torres.... the hit was slightly late (I've seen far worse not get called interference), but he technically launched himself. That being said, even though Torres is a repeat offender, 25 games is more than a little excessive... but it comes down to Shanahan having to make an example out of someone to make up for his inconsistent rulings thus far. It's not a huge deal though, our other players have stepped up... especially Boedker, and it's not like Torres was a goal scoring machine or other super integral part of our team.

25 games is complete BS
Nothing more than a PR job from the NHL

wonder what will happen when Stamkos leaves his feet for a similar check

Pretty much. It was increased cause it was non-star on star violence. If it was the other way around, it would've been a game.

But we'll deal without him, not a huge loss.

Are the league not embarrassed that their on ice officials did not even penslise the hit, then they fine Quenneville 10k for saying it was a bad hit, then agree with him by handing out a 25 game suspension

The NHL is run by clowns in suits
