"It was a fine hit," said Torres. "I was finishing my hit and he had his head down. We were both going for the puck. I've got to finish my hits. He was obviously in a vulnerable position but at the end of the day I have to finish my hit or else I am out of a job."

he'll get suspended...but maybe players will learn to play with their heads up. don't be an idiot on the ice, it's a contact sport.

Clear headshot. Not even disputable. Blaming that on Eberle's head being down is absurd.

i didn't say it wasn't a headshot.

i said don't keep your head down. if you're a player, don't put yourself in a dangerous position because you can. if you're playing the wall, don't turn your numbers when you see someone coming.

Common knowledge, you need to look down at the puck. It's a necessity in hockey. Jordan Eberle did that and Raffi Torres took his elbow and raped his face. 4 game suspension agrees with my statement.

i also didn't say he shouldn't be suspended.

Why does Chara get 0 games then???

I didn't say that you said he shouldn't be suspended, I meant even if you have your head down a player shouldn't elbow you in the face, making the head up thing not necessary if players are going to respect each other.
