Its the fact Corrado admitted he deliberately did what he did that makes this worth a suspension. I did not hear an apology. Can some one forward me to one? I may change my tune, Even a BS one!
He fully admitted intent! No player admits intent! Admitting that gets a nasty suspension! I say its worth five games up to 15, you may disagree. Hey that's fine.
Corrado............... did an interview and made statements. Flames will be coming back to make statements on the ice towards him and his teammates.
He should of said "I regret what I did, there is no place in hockey for that". To my knowledge he didn't say that. So unless I hear otherwise it was deliberate intent to injure!
It does not have to be Johnny hockey, any player. Cheap and dirty hit and not owning up to it, yet admitting he was trying to run the guy.
No NHL player says what he said when they are facing suspension, he wasn't facing suspension so he had an attitude about it.
Don't get me wrong, justice will be served. Ask Lombardi about a flying elbow from hatcher years ago, if it affected him? Never was the same player!
Cheap elbow, penalties don't do it justice. Attitude afterwards, demands retaliation. Could of been different if the guy owned up to his mistake or at least felt a little bit of guilt. Not even a BS apology.
