For crying out loud!,Torres is a repeat offender.He left his skates off the ice to make his hit.That was not a hockey play.Anyone who thinks that he doesn't deserve a suspension in the range of 20-25 games ,must be a cheerleader of the bouffon after each first period on HNIC.(And god knows he has millions of fans in this country since every "hockey pucks" are glue to their TV set when he open his yap)
The problem with the NHL policy when it comes to headshots is that they want to be be " A little pregnant" with it. And how they do that? by throwing the neutron bomb at 3rd or 4th line players or 6 or 7th defensemen.But being soft on 1st or 2nd line guys or 1st or 2nd defensemen.Shea Weber (all star defenseman)got nothing for smashing the head of Zetterberg on the glass like a WWE Wrestler ,but they throw the book at Torres.The problem is not trowing the book at Torres, but being soft on a all star guy.
The NHL can get rid of headshots if they want to.Just don't be a little pregnant with head issue.You hit a player to the head? BAM! 10 games.you are a second time offender? BAM! 20 games. You are a 3rd time offender? BOUM! 40 games.4th time offender? BOUM! 80 games.and so on,and so on...."THAT" will be a deterrent.Because its pretty clear that those 1 or 2 games penalities or those stupid 2500$ fines are not deterrents enough.
But make no mistake,The NHL is run by dinosaurs.They believe hockey fans..true hockey fans ,love this.And why those morons think that and don't want to erase the headshots and fighting? Because they say ratings are up this year and like it was during the time of Rome and the gladiators,people in the arenas are standing up and cheer whenever a fight breaks out or when a headshot is given to an opposite player of the visiting team.
