    Thumbs up Bertuzzi armpit to the head

    5 minute major and match penalty for this??? When your name is Todd Bertuzzi, yes.

    Johnson missed like 1 shift and was back in the game. Crap call.

    It was more like a Rob Black butt-check gone wrong. No elbow, all armpit!

    I mean Rob Blake

    ... when you're a die-hard Red Wings fan, no.

    ...or you could freeze the video at 45 seconds, when Betuzzi's elbow is just about to knock the guy's helmet off.

    Fans see what they want to see.

    We need to get armpits like this out of the game. What's next? Ass-bombing?

    Since when did the triceps become armpits? From what I can see on the video Bertuzzi hit him in the head with his upper arm.

    Just in... no suspension...
    If you think it's hard to meet new people, try picking up the wrong golf ball.

    Undeniable hit to the head (regardless if there was an injury).

    Just another example of the NHL blowing a call and further cemented their reputation as a sub-par league with sub par management and sub par officiating (<-- maybe not that last one, he did get a major and a game misconduct).

    Bottom line, NHL said they wanted to crack down on headshots, and given Cooke's latest suspension (approx 16 games, give or take?), I would say this deserves at least 5.

    Season

    Todd Bertuzzi has been suspended for the rest of the season. In reviewing this play, we also took into consideration that Todd Bertuzzi previously almost killed Steve Moore.

    hahaha. the wheel of justice rules!

    however Bertuzzi is not a repeat offender because the Steve Moore thing happened more than 18 months ago. Dumb rule but that's the NHL for ya.
