I just saw that. But, I don't really think that should have been a suspension. Oh well, Tootoo is a goon, so he probably deserves it for something else over the course of his career.

Tootoo is a little weasel who should be euthanized... but I don't think that hit deserves a suspension.

It's like a make-up call for the Bruins after the Lucic hit. Stupid.

Funny thing is that I was talking to a waiter at a restaurant near the arena in Nashville, and he was saying that Tootoo is the nicest guy on the team. Says he tips like 50% every time. :lol:

Only in the NHL would a player get suspended more games for using the term "sloppy seconds" in an interview than for an illegal hit.

In this case, I agree with the suspension. He ran over the goalie in the crease. While the Bobby Orr shot is nice, he isn't in the crease or diving over the crease at all. He is falling over/jumping/diving/whatever because the Blues D-man, one of the Plagers I believe, tripped him. Tootoo just barreled into the goalie in the crease. Jumping over Ryan Miller while going through his crease????? [Bill Cosby's Noah voice]RRRRRRiiiiiiiiiiiiiigggggghhhhhhhhhhtttttt!!!!!!![/voice]

Pfft... That's not just the tip. That's all he's got.
