Really, first it was Lucic. Chara hasn't done anything like that this season, that I can remember. Never defended it. Second, someone said that these things rarely happen and there's been quite a few of these, as of late
That fact that Selanne is still playing at age 43 is amazing. Jagr is 42.... The 1980's and 1990's were an awesome era for the NHL. I remember watching the Islanders win four cups and then the Oilers lead by Mark Messyhair and the Great one win four cups themselves. Then the Great one went to L.A. and the Oilers ended up winning one more cup without him.
Dave, Dave, Dave... There's no way that you can defense Cooke's dirty knee. But for once I do agree with you that the officiating was very poor. (Video of holding and offsides.)
