Did anyone see the hit from behind on Dorsett last night in the game between the Bluejackets and the Stars? It was incredible. I know the guy did not mean to hurt him but these guys are pros and need to be more aware of their actions. Glad to see that the league suspended Neal for 2 games. What do you think?

It was ugly, they were showing it in pre-game tonight. Neal should have been suspended. The guys calling the wings game tonight were saying that they expect the league to make the blind side hits in center ice an automatic 10 game suspension. You're right they are pros and they should know that just because you can take the hit doesn't mean you should. It's not like hockey isn't a rough game to begin with..and with the injuries league wide this year, you would think they would be more careful for their own sake.
