Also, I fail to see you backing up any of Corrado's comments which should be looked at when considering a suspension. He said he was trying to hurt a skilled blue-chip prospect in whats essentially a pre-season game. Classless just like the Canucks organization.

What???? Is this place going crazyville? The exact quote from Johnny speaking English went over
MY head, I guess I need to read minds like you and the other two so i can "feel" what he really meant. IMO he meant he got himself into a position he shouldn't have and he won't let it happen again.
Why in the blue hell would I back up Corrado's comments? It was a dirty play, I agree with that...where i differ with a few posters is I think the punishment fit the crime on this one....along with the eventual bell call he will have to answer.
It was not an attack/mugging/brutal/pick your exaggeration, type hit. More like a stupid (and dirty) reaction to a missed hit...if it wasn't JG the rhetoric would be zero and if it wasn't a Flame no one would even be talking about it in here.
Going to have to avoid any "OMG Johnny hockey got hit" thread if this is the reaction every time.
