And despite your claims otherwise, yes, you are demonizing Cooke, and yes, you are trying to argue it was deliberate. Don't insult people's intelligence by suggesting otherwise.

That said, it's Matt Cooke. Of course people are going to assume guilt. That is Matt Cooke's legacy, and he earned it fair and square. It was my first reaction too. But when you take a step back and look at it without the names involved, there's just nothing there to accuse him of.
That is a fair enough evaluation, Resolute. I think the point I was trying to convey was that I'll always have a shred of doubt on the play. I agree, my initial post probably harbored more insinuation on Cooke's part than I meant to.

It's a gruesome injury that I would wish on no-one. I wish the best and speediest recovery to Karlsson.
