Simmonds went out and gave Neal a couple shoves on his way to the penalty box. Neal ended up back towards the bench area where a couple Flyers jabbed at him for his two hits on the previous shift. Crosby yanked down Hartnell from behind, and Adams started beating on Hartnell while he was still tied up with Crosby. Ergo, Adams isn't playing tomorrow.

He also pulled Hatnell's hair in the fight, I think that's where the suspension came from.

Dale Hunter defended it saying the Bruins have been targeting Backstrom's head. Lol Dale Hunter wouldn't know anything about cheap shots after the whistle.

That's what goons are for and Hunter knows that. If Hunter believes what he said and they were targeting Backstrom's head, send someone out that you don't mind getting suspended and take care of business. Don't let one of your top flight guys have to defend himself and get suspended.

Sounds more like Hunter covering up for Backstrom's stupidity.

He's just trying to plant the seed so it will hopefully void/lessen any suspension that the NHL hands down.

Shaw of the Blackhawks got 3 games.

I agree, that's a selfish penalty too. The player has to know better.

backstrom will miss game four unless shanahan overturns the match penalty. considering the blocker by thomas to the face, the highstick last night to backstroms head...yeah, dale might be on to something.
but yeah, dale can preach about hits-he knows all about them!

GMGM won't dress an enforcer b/c he thinks he's ken f*cking holland of the detroit red wings.... they traded for a guy like King last year to sit in the press box and brought up Rechlitz for 2 games this season......not to mention John Erskine claims to not have spoken a word to hunter in 2 months.

yeah, we're the F*cking red wings alright.

Be this as it may, George McPhee was one of the toughest muthas to ever play. In his day he wouldn't have thought twice about taking on Lucic.
