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.

i wish someone, anyone, would just put a stick in lucic teeth..... perfect time to do it, bring up Reachlitz for game 5, LET THE DOG OFF THE LEASH!!!!

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.

He never thought twice about taking on anyone, he and Rick Tocchet and he and Dave Brown had some of the best brawls I have ever had the chance to see live.

i'm not even talking about "taking on" lucic, i'm talking about straight up mauling him, ala carkner vs. boyle.
the guy was taking liberties all game, with everyone, and only got 1 penalty that wasn't a coincidental minor.
the officiating was not good at all in game 4 (and i'm not blaming the loss on that, b/c i'm not that person). So, if the refs can't police the game, let the players do it themselves, how sh!t was done in the old days, or i guess GMGM forgot about that.

* just an FYI, your star player shouldn't lead your team in suspensions
