Neal suspension wasn't near enough. This is one of the dirtiest cheap shots I have ever seen in hockey.
Also a question for everyone that thinks, or assumes that Opriks original hit was clean. Do you think that every player who is close to the puck is fair game for predatory hits (as an example, the puck is cleared around the boards and a player is waiting), does the defenceman have a right to step up and crush him because the puck is coming to him?
