Wednesday dotted, Ryane Clowe Sharks Calgary Cory Sarich to a dozen right hand of the watermelon in a game in San Jose. Clowe has five minutes in the penalty area and standing ovations.
This is an interesting juxtaposition, given the sudden interest not on the NHL concussion awareness. The league began to crack down on the surprise success last year.
Repeat offenders were punished more difficult.
Cooke was unlucky - some would say it is worth - is committed to its obligations to the most recent national television and the Directors General of the League were convened in Florida. GM could not have sought a face to the epidemic hits set blatant and debilitating brain injury, but waived its beauty.
It is very personal with the penguins. Sidney Crosby, the captain (and meal-ticket NHL) has been with concussion symptoms 5th January pause.
Ray Shero is the GM a strong supporter of the cleaning of the part.
Suffice it to say Cooke is no love in the organization. Or try some, told reporters: unanimously I want change. . Head shots are bad. Shocks should be avoided. And yet, speaking for the whole world the noble soul to protect the players, we use the F word: control.
Yes, we had this discussion. And yes, recently Clowe a forum for a game well balanced, which praised the ability to manage a stub includes.
But the call is in progress. What was the culture of hockey. His supporters call the campaign as part of the game, and that could have pierced on Wednesday offered that as an attachment A.
One came after the Sharks Sarich had plowed Logan Couture. Couture was not only comes from an injury in the last game, but refuses to defend himself by throwing his hands. Clowe So he did as the manual calls.
Two, there is some story there. Sarich Patrick Marleau pulverized in a playoff game a few years. Karma limit of the law, a dish best served cold - as you call it, it fits the argument of the fight, as an integral part of the game.
And three, the fight consensual. Clowe was Sarich. Both eye contact. They dropped their gloves. This implies an agreement. It is like a contract with Don King, beaming down. It is therefore fundamentally different from a guy like you with an elbow McDonagh, who saw will never smoked.
The opponents have said that no sport called Reflex to another computer without having to fight gloves as standard practice. And pointed to the intrinsic value that the fight against trafficking in question, since one rarely seen during the events of the signing of hockey - the playoffs for the Stanley Cup and the Olympic Games.
These are old arguments. If the league is to minimize serious head injuries, the focus has changed.
They are so concerned about the welfare of Ryan McDonagh, then you should be concerned Calgary Raitis Ivanans, which does not suffer from a concussion during a fight on the opening night has to be played. You should New York Islanders goalie Rick DiPietro, who missed nearly two months to be affected after suffering facial fractures in a fight with one blow with Pittsburgh goalie Brent Johnson.
On the other hand, if you are concerned about head injuries suffered in a fight, you should have the cumulative effect of many struggles involved for many years. Clowe is not a normal fighter, but it was Bob Probert.
During a career in the NHL for 17 years, Probert involved in about 300 episodes. He died at 45 last summer. Although there are more than their share of personal problems, there is no doubt that hockey is fighting their health over time damaged. When doctors at Boston University has studied the brain after its death, chronic traumatic encephalopathy was discovered - the same degenerative diseases, in the former NFL players who died too young.
So the question of the NHL: To what extent are willing to extend their concern for the welfare of their players? For if not to the fight, this lack of vision, devoted to something much more selective hypocrisy.
