I think that article is a bad generalization. The same thing happens in America with football athletes. They're held on a pedestal by SOME, but not all, football fans when they deliver bone-crushing tackles. I don't know, I think Jim Kelley was just looking for something to write about. He does a lot of sports talk shows in Buffalo for local stations, and he usually has very valid arguments. I think that article is just waaaay too generalized.

As long as hockey allows and encourages fighting, this shouldn't be as big of a deal. Very insensitive I know, as it was a cheap shot, but it was just bad luck that he got seriously hurt. No one says anything when 2 guys are punching each other in the face, in fact, they cheer. Sure its serious, but it's also hypocritical in my opinion.

a few of my thoughts
1. get rid of bettman
2. get rid of the instigator rule
also, if visors are made mandatory then the league is full of fuckin idiots
