		<description><![CDATA[It is an injustice.  More proof that the NHL is only interested in the consequence of said actions.  Moore falls on the ice diffeetly-3 game suspension.  All the comments from analysts aout how this suspesion should be tough so as to discourage actions like this later nave come to naught.  It became aother way for the media to portray how badly the NHL is doing in American states and exploit this as oe of the reasons.  Will this dissaude players from acting just like Bertuzzi? No, the fact that they will reevaluate his suspension before next season is proof that they want to see how Moore recuperates.  The intent is the true question hear that the NHL has skated around.  They simple stuck Bertuzzi out to be crucified by the media ad then stuck the spear in at the end.  Now that Bertuzzi is suspended does this mea that every dangerous play will cause a lengthy suspension? No,  it sends the message that you can give out cheapshot but make sure the guy only goes out for a week or take out somebody&#039;s knee thus giving you a week or two suspension at most.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

		<description><![CDATA[Some of you *****ing idiots make me laugh.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Moore&#039;s hit on Naslund was NOT cheap. Sorry, he was trying to finish a check... if Naslund&#039;s face was not waist level... it would not have been an injury. It was a pretty f*ckign minor injury (comparatively) anyway.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Most importantly what you idiots fail to recognize is that it was part of the NORMAL COURSE of the hockey game. It was a check, it was not a fliying elbow, a sucker-punch, a sting swinging, a deliberate attempt to blow out a knee or whatever.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
What Bertuzzi did cannot be compared. That was an assault, plain and simple. It was with INTENT and it caused SERIOUS injury. That is NOT part of what is expected as part of a hockey game.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
So first you morons look at the Naslund hit like it was something extraordinary and vicious... funny, the NHL didn&#039;t see it that way? Funny, I didn&#039;t see Domi or Belak out there breaking someone&#039;s neck because the damaged the eyes of Nolan or Tucker.. those were WAY WAY worse than what Naslund incurred. So quit your candy-ass whining about the hit on Naslund. It WAS part of the game.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
What Bertuzzi did was cowardly, vicious, and caused serious injury. Are you even remotely aware of how close he came to paralyzing Moore or KILLING him.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
To compare the two, or justify this in any way is the biggest idiocy I have ever seen here. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
OH yeah, I also like some medical experts here who can state for certain that the guys neck broke when Bertuzzi *accidentally* fell on him... do you people ever listen to yourselves. You are *****ing jokes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

		<description><![CDATA[said someone was going to &quot;make him eat his lunch.&quot; they didn&#039;t use words like &quot;bounty&quot; which semantically carry much more weight in this type of situation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
i also don&#039;t think that anyone has any problem with vancouver going after moore... but there are ways to go about it, and ways not to go about it. that wasn&#039;t the way to go about it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
nevermind the bullox,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

		<description><![CDATA[Why would the league show Naslund respect? If the league had to show respect to a player after EVERY clean hit? Wouldn&#039;t it get repetitive and senseless?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
And sure, if my buddy were to get hurt for a couple of games, I&#039;d stick up for him, but I would not 1. Grab Jersey 2. wind my fist up from behind my head 3. sucker punch him while the puck is on the other side of the ice and moore not knowing a thing 4. sucker punch aimed toward the side of his face! 5. grab arm and place behind back 6. push him towards the ice face first&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
it was clearly nasty! And what if moore was killed? It was pernounced a deadly cheapshot. 13 games? Come on!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I remember it quite well, the majority on this site were calling for Heatley&#039;s head.  Many more than a few people wanted him to serve the maximum penalty under law for the crime he was initially charged with, and nothing else would suffice.  That was all based upon the very few details that we  heard through the media, nothing more.  Not that we&#039;ve actually learned anything else since then, as the investigation has continued to drag on.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
But my point is the emotion of the moment (which can last a couple days it seems) can and usually does spark cries for some pretty severe justice to be served.  Though there have been many rational comments about this, the emotion still rules the day for the most part.  When some time has past, there will still be those calling for some extremely harsh punishments, but the thoughts on this topic will be better thought out.  Take it for what it is right now.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Personally, I think he should be out for the rest of the regular season and the playoffs.  But I won&#039;t be too surprised if he&#039;s only out for a couple games in the playoffs. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Week or two?  WTF!!!! He missed three games! If you look at the replay of the Naslund hit you see a few things. 1. Naslund was skating with his head down, the biggest no-no in the game. 2. Naslund lowered his upperbody just a second before the hit meaning that 3. Moore wasn&#039;t aiming to hit him in the head. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
If you are pissed that Moore didn&#039;t fight who you wanted don&#039;t blame Moore. Cooke started the fight. If Bertuzzi or May or any one else should have been at the other end then why didn&#039;t they step up first? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
And here is the other great thing about Canuck logic, if it is all about paybacks, then I think that Bertuzzi&#039;s debt should be paid for ten fold, jsut like Moore&#039;s. For all of you who say that it was just fine that this shit happened then I don&#039;t want to hear you ***** when the fans in Denver kill Bertuzzi when he comes back to town. I mean it is fair payback according to you logic. ]]></description>
