That Alfredsson 'goal' should not have counted, IMO.
As for Pronger, as a repeat offender now, he should get at least 2 games. :rambo:

Yeah the Alfie goal was iffie. Winning by 2 makes it easier to swallow, than had the score been 4-3.

Pronger suspended (again).. <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.tsn.ca/nhl/news_story/?ID=209738&hubname=">http://www.tsn.ca/nhl/news_story/?ID=209738&hubname=</a><!-- m -->
You'd think getting busted twice in a couple weeks he would have gotten more than 1 game, the guy is a repeat offender, what message does that send?
I hope they lose the next game and the series, way to help your team out jackass.

please...he's the best defenceman in the game. When you play on the edge, sometimes you get burned. Gordie Howe is revered for such things.

I did happen to catch the elbow delivered by Pronger. I like Pronger as a player, I really do, he's tough and talented. That being said I would have been fine if he was suspended for two games, considering it was just, what, less than two weeks ago he got suspended for his hit on Holmstrom?
Colin Campbell has the most difficult job in hockey in determining suspensions, so anyone who thinks he's an idiot should just relax. Again, though, I will say that perhaps he made a mistake here.
All that being said... GO DUCKS!!!!!!

How is he a repeat offender?!?
Lets see he elbowed Holmstrom, than elbowed McAmmond, thats two offences in two weeks. More than one makes him a repeat offender, who cares if it was different players from different teams? What kind of stupid thinking is that, if Chris Simon had two-handed 4 different players across the head all season long, wouldnt you call him a repeat offender? I would. Just cause its a different player from a different city how does it make it any different?

What message does it send when Alfie continually gets away with hitting people from behind? Year after year after year......
It tells me the league needs to get its act together when it comes to punishing players, especially repeat offenders regardless of who they are. Unless Bettman needs you to sell tickets or tv rights, than you can do what you like.
