The NHL is a disciplinary joke, though. Hard to argue with that. Two exact hits will have completely different and arbitrary punishments. Its silly. Maybe they have a "punishment wheel" they spin. Who knows.
Yeah I definitely agree with you on that. I read your post differently then you intended. I mean how many times has Matt Cooke railed people with dirty hits? He finally got his suspension but it took a while. The irony in that is Crosby complaining about concussions, while having one of the dirtiest players in the NHL on his team.

Unit 91:

This is a great example of what you are talking about.

Bobby Ryan of the Ducks got a 2 game suspension for "kicking/stomping" the foot of Blum. Really?? 2 game for that! Stoll gets 1 game suspension??

Yeah... the NHL definitely needs to create some standards. haha

Bobby Ryan is a douche, but he doesn't deserve two for that. It's a joke.

Sharks are playing awful! No puck control, can't control the neutral zone, horrible power play defense... they look lazy! WTF

Lets go sharks!

Tonights game was atrocious!!!

I can't believe they looked like they did tonight. They were wearing their "choke" necklaces for sure tonight.

They better come back Saturday with at least two more wins from LA this week!

That was turrable. I really thought that they were past this kind of gameplay and left these antics back in the first half of the season.

Why in the playoffs, and at home, and coming off of a game 1 win?

Not that they're doing anything to help that in this game here.....

That had to be the worst period I've seen in a long time. Sharks playing like college hockey. Only once did they have any decent possession in the Kings end. Their fore check is horrible, and Boyle and half the Sharks are playing without heads on (Running into each other and missing the puck literally turning it over to the Kings)

And speaking power plays... are 0% so far, nice one.
