I 100% agree with Treliving's comments. This was not a 'sucker punch'. I don't see anything wrong with this. Sherwood was running around all night, and then did what any other player that is trying to get something started did - jab and poke at the goalie. That ALWAYS (at least it SHOULD always) spark a reaction from the other team.
Good on Lucic for sticking up twice now for this team when the opposing players thought they could get away with something. The Flames are still too soft for my liking (that hit on Kylington should have prompted an instant response in my book, for instance).
Anyway, stuff like this just brings the team closer together and motivates them anyway. I don't have a problem with the incident, 2 games seems to me to be 2 games too many, but whatever.
