I just can't get over the fact that hockey players are pinned against the boards like this dozens of times a game, and to my recollection similar incidents haven't occurred (I could be wrong).

It seems suspicious, and as far as I'm concerned with Cooke, guilty until proven innocent. And since you can't prove a person's innocence in an incident like this, he's guilty.

This was not a decision. Its just the way it happened.
