Funny, I thought this guy was just a "hard nosed" player and played "within the context of the game", whatever that means...
Penguins' Matt Cooke suspended
I do like the reply from Pittsburgh's GM, Ray Shero:
"The suspension is warranted because that's exactly the kind of hit we're trying to get out of the game," Shero said in a statement. "Head shots have no place in hockey. We've told Matt in no uncertain terms that this kind of action on the ice is unacceptable and cannot happen. Head shots must be dealt with severely, and the Pittsburgh Penguins support the NHL in sending this very strong message."
