Which post? I've answered all of them. Specify which one was not answered sufficiently.

At the speed that the game is being played at would not be possible that players/refs blurred into the surroundings of the game/arena as he clearly laboured back to the bench??

Ok, this is where we're seeing different things. Same as Jay Random taking such offence, I see a malicious hit, you guys apparently see an accident.
I see a guy striding toward the bench, head down, and then looking up, changing direction (toward Henderson) and then winding up and DRILLING him. That does not look like an accident to me.

That's totally an up in the air opinion and knowing Widemans previous history in the league, with no previous violent behaviour toward players and refs alike.. I think you have an unecessary hate for Dennis and I don't get your stance when clearly many different people have reviewed this case and ruled in favour of a 10 game suspension.

It's not about "Dennis". It's not because he sucks now. It's because he did that while being a Calgary Flame, and playing in the NHL. That was total garbage, and I bet that the tune around here would be mighty different if it was a Canuck or Oiler that did that.
If he was Sami Kappanning his way to the bench and then ran into an official, I'd understand. When he's skating directly towards him, looks up and sees him, raises his stick and hits him with both hands on the stick, and crumples the guy? That's well beyond an accident.
