I also agree that there had to have been a suspension but i don't agree with the nhl saying it was a deliberate act to justify 20 games.

I also don't like the use of the text. I haven't read the report, so i don't know if there was more to the text then what is reported. If it was a text between teammates asking for an update after or during the hearing and Wideman is getting the impression he is being railroaded, then i don't think the text is showing no remorse. It is showing frustration in the process.
