Dear Mr. Steve Macfarlane,

Here is a video clip of what I mean about players ilegally going after someone who delivered a legal hit.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2u1zaZe_qP4

Fun fact: Craig Weller is a Calgary native and I really hope he or a good friend of his is a member on this forum - if you are and happen to read this, I'm going to tell my great, great, great grandchildren about you.

Clean hockey hit on a legend, Rick Nash which was followed up by his teammates fully executing 'Operation Retaliation" on him and ended up being a complete failure. Weller defended himself twice after a clean hockey hit on Nash (he literally murders him - watch the whole video, there is a second angle that shows the speed and strength of the hit against the boards, it's insane and let's not forget that this is a regular season game).

Weller's hit on Nash was so clean that Weller was able to effortlessly pick up the puck instantly after he delivered it. I think we can all agree that a dirty hit in hockey is never followed up with the player picking up the puck because dirty hits in the end are not about getting the puck, it's just a way to present to the rest of the world that you're a scumbag who is expendable and replaceable. (I'd have no problem being that person if I made over a million dollars a year though, where is my dignity?)

Weller gets (I wouldn't say attacked since he does have possession of the puck after the first hit he delivered on Nash) but he was stationery at this point so when he defended himself by delivering his second hit, he was in a much more vulnerable position just by the laws of physics. However, Weller defied the laws of physics that day.

Now Weller doesn't have the puck, he has literally done nothing wrong (religiously, ethically, morally, spiritually, emotionally) which are not important and has nothing to do with what's most important of all in the game of hockey - he has literally done nothing wrong legally. If it's legal in hockey, it's religiously, spiritually moral and ethical - it's simple mathematics.

So now, our Calgary native, Mr. Weller is looking up to see Tollefson coming straight at him in which (I'm sure at this point is just a natural human behavioral reflex and if you're not naturally human, you simply did it because you are not a moron) and he punches him directly in the face - top shelf, bar down at his dome and drops him instantly to the ice.

Now, what's next about doing things legally - Weller wasn't out there to physically injure and hurt people because if he was, he would've just started his meal using his punch to Tollefsen's face as his own appetizer.

The Blue Jackets commentator's are so biased in the audio of this video that it sounds cute.

Our coach at the time (for the Coyotes) was this guy that actually was the original McDavid of the Oilers, you might know him as Wayne Gretzky - top 3 best NHL head coaches of all time.

I tried to look for the press conference clip but no luck but mark my words, when they asked Gretzky about Weller punching Tollefson in the face, the Great One literally replied (I'm confident to say verbatim - "Tollefson didn't approach Weller to ask for an autograph or if he wanted play cards.")

Softness is the cancer that no one sees coming before it's too late to battle it away.

Softness is detrimental to the game we love, boys. It's detrimental for you ladies out there as well. I can't imagine being a woman who has to bottle up all of their emotions without legally letting it all out on a good ole hockey hit. I'd need a new punching bag after every game.

I've been around on this forum since I was drafted in January 2009 as the scouts of this forum believed me to be the one to deliver good laughs every time I posted a reply. I'm hoping to end my career here doing just that but this hits home hard for me and I hope that I saved some individuals (especially the young, new generation) and their questionable perspectives on this because it's not only about having this mentality on the ice, it's also having the same off the ice. You always have the right to defend yourself if you're legally doing nothing wrong - doesn't matter if it hurts their feelings or it's against their new religion they found doing acid in Sri Lanka.
