    Rome's hit was a late dirty cheap shot. Plain and simple. And even though I'm cheering for Vancouver I'm glad he's been suspended for the play-offs. The game is losing to many of it's great players to head injuries.

    The rule should be as follows : If you take someone out with a cheap shot you're suspended until that player is able to return to the ice. Problem solved.

    • not dirty or cheap, just a tad lateeieio
    • He left the ground and raised his elbow. He knew exactly what he was doing.aldebaran
    • Actually his elbo is completely down. Its a perfectly good hockey hit just too late. There was zero intent to injure.eieio
    • too late = 100% in the wrong = you're suspended. end of story.aldebaran
    • a late shot with an unfortunate result. But please spare us the dramatic posturing.ThePublics
    • It was under a second late in the middle of the ice. It was spendable but who cares. Just big late hit Horton should have been looking.eieio
