I'm curious to see what the NHL does with hits to the head. They're toying with the idea of a no tolerance policy like the NFL....I'm sure it's a big coincidence they're talking about this right after Crosby got nailed. I hope they leave things as is, maybe stiffen the punishment a little more but that's it.

NHL has to consider that 90% of hits to the head were accidental. This sport is too fast to control accidents like this. Almost every game a high sticking penalty is called when all a player tries to do is lift the opposing players stick and accidently hits them in the face. They slap you with an extra 2min if you draw blood like thats intentional and the extra 2 is actualy stopping players from lifting an opposing players stick. Heres another one, you trip a guy and you get 2 for tripping and they get 2 for diving. Well, is it a trip or a dive? There can only be one. And crosby is a crying little bitch. He forgets hes on camara dishing out cheap shots but doesnt STFU when he gets hit cleanly. Bettmans little poster boy could tary and be a little tougher.
