Yeah I have to agree that Melnyk is WAY off side in this. It's simply not the way to do things when you are a partner with an entire group that your words can have an effect on.
The whole thing has taken a ridiculous life of its own now. I mean this is from Garrioch..

And the Ottawa Senators owner says the NHL should throw the book at its best player with a suspension for his vicious slash on defenceman Marc Methot in the club’s 2-1 shootout victory over the Pittsburgh Penguins on Thursday night.

Really? THAT was a "vicious" slash? Laughable. Its a play that happens in almost every game ever played in the league...the stick just got Methot in a bad spot which resulted in a gory looking injury. Beyond that though, the finger wagging is reaching absurd levels.
