Phoenix is REALLY starting to piss me off. First their goalie acts like he just got hit by a tank, getting Shaw suspended 3 games, now Torres completely decks Hossa, sending him to the hospital and winning the game at our place in OT, that very well could have been ours had Hossa not been injured. There needs to be some major retaliation.. |
Yeah I don't know why Mike Smith exaggerated the hit so much, but it was still a dirty ass hit by Shaw. Chicago knows Phoenix is a team that relies on defense and goaltending so taking a run at their goalie like that is completely classless. I fully support the 3 game suspension, if Smith was injured it should have been longer.
As for the Torres hit, it was clean as a whistle. He didn't leave his feet until contact was made. Sadly the league will probably still give him a game suspension for that clean hit because of his previous record of suspensions/fines.
And as for "there needs to be major retaliation", Torres' hit on Hossa could well have been the retaliation you're talking about, for the cheap shot on Smith.

Clean as a whistle!!! Torres freaking jumped into him. Gimme a break you Hossa hater!
He did the exact same thing to Brent Seabrook last year. Come on man. I know that you don't like the Hawks, but show a little more honesty when making statements like that. I am not crying foul because of Shaw's suspension. He made a major no-no and is serving his time so to speak.

That was an older post my good man, check my more recent ones. I've already admitted it was a dirty hit. Wasn't as bad as the Seabrook one last year, but still bad.
