I think Pronger should get a game (or two)... but I'm a little biased being a Wings fan. I'm glad Homer just had to get stitched up and was back for the 3rd. I was worried about a concusion and losing him for the series (or longer).
All hits are legal in the playoffs
Pronger hearing to be held this afternoon, no definate suspension yet.

If Alfie didn't get a suspension, Pronger shouldn't get one.

Up until this round my highlight was the Sedins and their tummy-ache excuse for their piss-poor play, but that has been superseded by the Sabres completely shitting the bed this round, and the enjoyment that comes from reading posts where their fans turn on their MVP and call him a quitter. I've noticed a lack of "we" in their posts all of a sudden. Great stuff!
Congrats on the baby. :thumb:

i think prongers hit was worse.... but thats just my opinion before anyone bites my head off.
You have to watch this before the game tonight. Win/lose....this is funny

It was a lot worse. People thinking otherwise have some screws loose.
Just heard that Pronger has in fact been suspended for one game.
Yup.

Something that Detroit can take advantage of.

How was it worse? Because Pronger doesn't play for Ottawa and Alfie does?
i think prongers hit was worse simply because it was a little more malicious with a little more intent to injure.....just a little though

Burden's on you, sorry. And biases also work both ways. No way in hell would I find an anti-Ottawa bias more credible than any other bias.
