2010-2011 NHL season

Matt Cooke does it again, this time on Fedor Tyutin of the Blue Jackets

Matt Cooke is a gutless puke and if Colin Campbell has any balls, he'll throw the book at him.

Dan Bylsma says the defenseman Cooke hits looked Cooke in the eyes and knew the hit was coming? Bull fucking shit. Someone is going to go Todd Bertuzzi on Cooke here really soon. He's fucking reckless anymore.

This is too bad, their international and amateur sport coverage would be a huge loss to the Canadian scene, as well it would be a huge loss to the hockey scene to lose a heritage program like HNIC.

There's only one reason it would be a tragedy (well, not exactly, but you know what I mean) if CBC lost HNIC. You don't have to have cable to watch it and for a lot of people who live in the hinterlands or can't afford cable, they'd be shit out of luck.

I'm on record here as a big supporter of the Mother Corp for a lot of reasons but their production of HNIC is not any better than TSN's, a thought that would have been incomprehensible a few years ago.

Don Cherry has become a national embarrassment and his sidekick Ron MacLean thinks that the between period segments are about him. PJ Stock doesn't belong anywhere near a mike and Milbury is a joke.

CBC still has the best PBP guy in Hughson and I'll take Glen Healy and Kelly Hrudey over anybody on TSN and our guy Elliotte's pregame segment "Inside Hockey" is as good as it gets. And we have to put up with McGuire on TSN

Personally I think CBC has to rethink the entire programme, the way John Shannon did when he took over as Executive Producer.

My only worry would be that Sportsnet would win the bid for HNIC. That would be a national disaster. Those clowns are horrible

Maybe someone can answer this for me, but with TV going digital I thought you needed cable or satellite of some form to even get TV nowadays, didn't think bunny ears and an antenna on the roof would cut it anymore.

Well you see Tyutin has a set of eyes in the back of his head, so of course he looked Cooke in the eye . . .

Cooke is just lucky he didn't paralyze Tyutin.

Saw the Cooke hit on Ovechkin - little too reminiscent of the Ulf Samuelsson leg-to-leg check that took years off Cam Neely's career.

Looked an awful lot like the knee-to-knee hit Ovechkin put on Gonchar a couple years ago, which essentially sidelines Gonchar a week during that playoff series.

Going on past precedent, no suspension for Cooke for tonight's hit given how Tyutin got up and skated away without injury. Unless the NHL wants to change the rules as they go or say they're punishing him for past actions, too.

I love the "well he did it to Gonchar two-years-ago!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" defense coming from Penguins fans. And I loved how when challenged to fight, Cooke backed off like a little bitch. And Ovechkin has been suspended, and after a while even Boudreau stopped defending him when it comes to cheap shots. Why is Bylsma unwilling to do the same?

Last night's hit was malicious and reckless. It shouldn't take an injury to lead to a suspension. The NHL needs to punish him before someone decides it's time for vigilante justice on the ice.

Perhaps down the road but I think even a twisted coat hanger can still get you reception for non-cable channels. I may be wrong.

1. It's not a defense, it's simply calling it what it looked like. And on that hit, even though Gonchar sat out two or three games and wasn't completely healthy when he did return to the ice, Ovechkin didn't draw a suspension.

2. Preaching to the choir, because it shouldn't take an injury to lead to a suspension. But the NHL needs to be consistent on its punishment. If Steckel's elbow to Sidney Crosby's head didn't deserve a fine or suspension, I don't see how what Cooke did last night merits one.

3. Talking about how "Cooke backed off like a little bitch" when challenged to fight is funny given Ovechkin how he needs Matt Bradley to race off the bench to fight his fights.

Oz, you've become a joke in the defense of your teams. Matt Cooke is the biggest piece of shit in the league and of course his track record will be used in determining a suspension. the NHL has always treated repeat offenders tougher. How the hell can you defend this piece of shit?

Comparing Ovechkin and Cooke is a complete joke, just fanboy bullshit.

Dreger says that Rangers are listening to offers for Gaborik.

Comparing Ovechkin and Cooke would be a complete joke, I agree, because Cooke absolutely, positively plays dirty. But I didn't compare the two as dirty players, I compared two different plays that looked remarkably similar in nature.

Roenick says Cooke is chickenshit. Good enough for me.
