I'm suprised as well. I thought he deserved atleast a 2game suspension.

^^^^Yeah should be interesting and I'm sure Bylsma will have the protection squad on full alert. Boston is saying "an eye for an eye" which means they'll come after Crosby but I think Cooke will be the.

"The American Bad Ass" Mike Rupp, will most likely be on the same line as Crosby for that reason.rock_knutne wrote: ^^^^Yeah should be interesting and I'm sure Bylsma will have the protection squad on full alert.

Very much a cheap shot by Cooke. Can't believe he wasn't suspended at all for that. League needs to get rid of stuff like this and all blows to the head.

Cooke got away with it because there were two similar incidents this year and neither player received a suspension. FYI, the GM's proposed a new rule outlawing these kind of hits, needs approval by the board/owners and the players association. I expect it to be fully implemented next year.The_Crosby_Show wrote: ^^^^I'm pretty sure thats what they talked about the most in this weeks GM meeting along with what the new CBA might be.

Bill Guerin wants all head shots outlawed, even if it's his own teammate:
