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.

Well fortunately for Cooke I guess it doesn't work that way in the modern world.
I'm wondering if Mclean gets fined for his comments and Neils head shot gets a serious look by the league.
McLean's comments were in the neighborhood of Crawfords comments on Moore.
