Well I’ll be damned—seems old Colin has a pair after all. This is almost as incredible as the scoresheet from last nights game!!! Surely has to have sent a stern message to Sasquatch, not to mention the other few members of the Duck cheap-shot players.

Hey Paul: Just curious, do you know if the NHL will issue any sort of statement associated with the suspension?

I will have it when released, will add it to the post.
But it will be a standard release…

Well, not nearly enough for a repeat offender like Pronger, but at least it’s something. I really doubted that the NHL would have the stones to do the right thing.
