my 2 cents worth ...... the Bertuzzi incident, like so many others, is an extension of what happens in the league everyday. Situations like this one are fostered, or at the least tacitly allowed because of the belief that it garners ratings. The Slapshot crowd in the states loves to see barely restrained violence. The problem is sooner or later someone loses control and someone gets seriously hurt. That Bertuzzi did not intend to hurt Moore this bad is not the issue. The league needs to stop all extracurricular stuff by punishing it severely and immediately. Hockey is an art form when played properly. When it is played like it is now ... it merely disgusts me. I like Todd Bertuzzi, he plays with heart; emotion and passion make him a star. Unfortunately he does not know how to control his emotions. In a game that is played at high speed, in close quarters with high emotions, control is vital. Suspending him as long as the league did was necessary. It does not hurt Vancouver sports fans as someone suggested .. because, it has no place in the game. How would the league look if Bertuzzi played a pivotal role in the playoffs, perhaps in a Vancouver/Colorado series? This crap has to stop, along with all the stick work, fighting, and cheap shots that happen everyday and don't result in injuries or media coverage like this one did.
