justnzane Posted November 3, 2009 Posted November 3, 2009 wicked hit where the hitter got ejected for boarding
stevestojan Posted November 4, 2009 Posted November 4, 2009 Per latest article I could find on google, he's still in ICU
Alaska Darin Posted November 4, 2009 Posted November 4, 2009 Wow. That was brutal. Dude should get suspended for a long time for that one. Totally unnecessary and the definition of charging. The lack of respect for the other player's well being totally disgusts me.

BuffaloBill Posted November 4, 2009 Posted November 4, 2009 wicked hit where the hitter got ejected for boarding Wow that was brutal - now that it appears that it is no longer life threatening it may still end a career.
Dante Posted November 4, 2009 Posted November 4, 2009 Love hard hitting hockey but that guy hit another while totally vulnerable against the boards. He obviously went for the his head as well. The hitter is just a prick pure and simple. Hockey police it's own so it could get even nastier if this guy is allowed to play again. Just heard on Fan590 that Leambis (sp) is suspended for the season and playoffs.
shrader Posted November 5, 2009 Posted November 5, 2009 I have no idea what to think on that one. I'm all for punishment for any shot to the head, but I really can't tell from the video if that was his intent or not. Obviously his history is going to factor in, but I hope the league made their decision based off of a better video than that one.
