i can honestly say that jumping before a collision seems to be instinct. i think the human mind sees it as lessening the blow.

If Tootoo went into the net and bowled Miller over with his skates on the ice, I could easily see him avoiding suspension. However, him leaving his feet expressed clear intent to do damage and that alone deserves a suspension.


One could easily argue that he was trying to jump out of the way??

Not that I'm saying that's what happened....


That argument requires someone to legitimately think that Tootoo can jump 4 feet into the air.

According to Darren Dreger, there will be no decision/announcement today reference Tootoo. I guess they don't want to take away from the BOG meeting.

Decision and announcement on Tootoo suspension will be made tomorrow.

Shanahan will simply say that since the referee called the major and game misconduct, it justifies a two game suspension, aided by a "repeat offender" status. He won't directly compare the two hits, say they were different (out of crease vs in the crease), blah blah, snap back at Buffalo that it's not "open season". In reality, Shanahan will definitely issue a suspension to avoid heavy backlash not just from Buffalo, but from all GMs that made clear their thoughts about the Lucic hit at the GM meeting a few days after.

That's alright... At least it's something this time... Lucic's hit was waaaaaay more dirty than this IMO....

Agreed. While I'm happy Tootoo was suspended, I don't understand how he could be for that play with nothing going to Lucic for the other one.

Well, I am a little surprised that he actually suspended him. There were a lot out there that defended Tootoo. I also seriously thought that they would hit Miller for a fine or something

I can only assume how vocal Lindy Ryan have been over this situation. everyone things Miller is a big pussy for "whining" about being hit in a contact sport. Obviously no one wants to understand that goalies are not expecting (nor equipped) to be run over like that. I like some of the comments Cory Schneider made in an article.
http://www.theprovince.com/sports/Schneider+surprised+Tootoo+suspension/5820102/story.html

Quote:
"For goalies being fair game, that's stupid," said Schneider. "We're not equipped to handle hits. I don't know if that makes us sound soft, but I haven't taken a bodycheck since I was 12. When goalies go out to play the puck, sometimes it's a calculated risk. To say we're fair game when we leave the crease is idiotic because that's when we're going to get hurt.

Matter of fact the Preds fans were chanting "miller is a baby" during the game. Obviously no one wants to understand that goalies are not expecting (nor equipped) to be run over like that.

What's retarded is the double fucking standard some idiots have. The Sabres are pussies for not going for Lucic then they are babies for going after Tootoo. Which one is it, assholes?
