perhaps dehydration or low blood sugar?
That's what I was thinking -- the exertion of the game along with a poor (or no) pre-game meal, or dehydration.

Ouch... Sabres' Jason Pominville taken away on a stretcher, after a nasty hit from behind courtesy of Hawks' Niklas Hjalmarsson.

I think that'll be the first suspension of the regular season, eh?

I see it as a blind side hit as Hjalmarsson came in from about 5 o'clock and the puck hadn't got to Pommenville yet, let alone having control of it. He took three at least three strides in the replay, then glided in for about the last 20 feet and planted himself right into Pommenville's numbers, who was completely defenseless against the move.

i agree with the blindside hit, but the rule book only covers blind side hits to the head...this was surely interference as he didn't have the puck, but i don't know if you can really go much more than that...it wasn't from behind (4-5 o clock like you said)...Pommenville's problem was he didn't brace himself for the hit, which is odd, because he looked to see who was coming right before he was hit.

How can you not? He clearly hit him blindside and with his shoulder to the numbers... it might not be a direct 6 o'clock hit from behind, but it was hit from behind nonetheless.

No, that was a hit from behind. It was dirty.

So a couple of 2 gamers...

Kinda sad about the Wozniewski suspension, but the league can't have guys doing that on the ice, even if Avery deserved every bit of it...

But whats the difference if he just called him a cocksucker verbally instead of the gesture he did? I'm sure that shit happens all the time.

Camera's and by extension everyone watching see the gesture.

Only players and lip readers when the camera is at the right angle know what is said on the ice.

That's the difference.

here's the problem though...you make a gesture about someone being a cocksucker and you get a 2 game suspension...you put a guy out (possibly a couple of months) with a "dirty hit", and you get the same penalty...that isn't right.
