is anyone else pissed that Messier only got a 2 game suspension for spearing the other day while Belak got 8 games for intent to injure? WTF - isnt spearing intent to injure? Granted Belaks incident was a little more viscious and Messier's used to playing when spearing was part of the game.

Anyone else feel the same? discuss, rant, un rant, etc.

and if you're going to say the Moose is a hockey legend, I couldnt care.

they were saying on the radio that Messier didnt get more games because they figure he is done after this season and they wanted him to play his final game in front of the hometown crowd.
i could care less. i dont like hockey and i dont watch hockey for this very reason.

Being an agoraphobic adrenaline junkie would be pretty convenient, because you could get your rush from just going to the store to get some milk instead of having to jump off a mountain or out of an airplane.

they also call me "balloon"

I agree he should have got the rest of the season as well. Now is the time that the NHL and NHLPA have to bare down on this garbage that is happening, and give anyone that does something stupid like this, the rest of the season! Maybe it will open up some of their eyes and see that the NHL and NHLPA are not fucking around anymore, and will go to all lengths to see that you do not suit up for another game for a long long time!

Clay, couldnt agree more, the NHL is dying fast

Messier should end his career like McSorley did… make it a former Oilers dream team era tradition… but i'm biased… can't stand the guy - especially while he wuz a Canuck! If there's a lockout i may quit watchin' hockey all together.. its getting gayer than $10 PPV

its because most people would rather see a fight than a decent hockey game.

Messier and Anderson could carve perfect turkey dinners with their sticks. And they always got away with it.

There were still lots of fights 10 years ago. Just cuz Bure and Lemieux were playing with skill doesn't mean others weren't fighting.

Naslund, Kariya, Selanne, Jagr, Gaborik, etc etc, all playing with skill… there's sitll fighters.

10 years ago it was different. Canucks like Ron Delorme, Sergio Momesso, Garth Butcher, Shawn Antonski, and Gino Okjick were around. Today, the Canucks have no enforcers.
