When something like this happens, you have to expect some passionate responses. That said…The NHL set the precedent for this kind of thing with the McSorley incident, and this hit, it could be argued, is worse than that one was. Showing support to Bertuzzi is one thing…that’s good…he’s going to need it. But he deserves to be punished, and I think that he knows that. We’re just taking hockey back to the dark ages. And that is a very good way to have hockey die out, because all this, is just bad publicity for the game. It’s only one of many reasons why Bertuzzi has to be punished. If he gets one year…I would be fine with that. And I like Bertuzzi. The league has to put a stop to things like this, because it’s bad PR for the league, which means less and less people will want to watch. We want people to think positively of the game.

naslund slowed up and extended rather than skate forward, thus rather than catch him full he clipped him on the head when naslund shied back… if naslund hadn’t leaned out it wouldn’t have been to the head at all, if he’d kept going it would have been body on body.

In case you missed the news, perhaps because your head is up your ass, you might have seen the many replays of this incident. The more I see it the more I hope that he gets the book thrown at him. I did not have to make it sound worse than it was, all the replays point out exactly what I am talking about. And before you respond to this, take a good long look in the mirror, now there’s a ****ing idiot!!

Although I'm not a doctor either, I don't think we are quite at the "career-threatening" level. It is my impression that this is more in line with the type of injury Daunte Culpepper suffered this year which kept him out about a month, although that was more in the back area than neck.

There are a lot of little bones on the outside of the vertebra which aren't so scary to get cracked. Still, can't be pleasant for Moore.

it kind of makes me sick how people say the nucks arent a dirty team like the leafs. never has a player in the NHL give a sucker punch, then pile drive the guys head to the ice. you cant give excuses like he didnt mean to hurt him as much as he did. HE SUCKER-PUNCHED THIS GUY FROM BEHIND! what did he think was going to happen? usually the guy will get knocked out, and if not, they def wont have the composure to avoid hitting their head on the ice full force, and just in case moore was able to, bertuzzi made sure his head wasnt going anywhere. stop defending the guy. he screwed up and should be suspended through the playoffs.

Hey circlejerkers. Yes you’ve got a great team. They’re called the Quebec Nordiques. And speaking of wretched goalies say “Hi” to Tommy for me. See you on the golf course.

Now let’s not start with the “stupid” cracks Yank. For the record frezzis stupid. That said I suggest you elect him as your next president-he’d be a step up. Also Bertuzzi deserves a long suspension. It doesn’t matter what other players do or did, he’s responsible for his selfish play.
