I always remember seeing a clip of Carcillo at 19 taking the head off with a crosscheck of a first
year OHL player. I have had a few off the record chats with this kid and he doesn't get it. This is
tough to explain... the difference between him and Walker. Bob McCowan would have no idea!!!

I agree with you. I didn't mind Ward getting punched. He's a little too smug. That'll teach him to be a
smartass.
Never a bad thing to suspend Carcillo. He's dangerous. Not all there.

Hey ... one point that was made throught-out the debate on fighting... the difference in today's game as opposed to
"yesteryear" is you DO NOT have to fight if you don't want to. That certainly was not evident with Carcillo and
Bradley. Bradley had 2 choices l)quickly turtle or quickly fight but when the punch landed his gloves were in the air.
This was a very poorly masked sucker punch. I know you disagreed with the Non-suspension with Walker but
Hospital Ward's (played much tougher on the Bruins last year) actions prior to the incident were totally different than
Carcillo's and Bradleys. Plus, I have much more concern with Carcillo's past AND future actions than Walkers. I will
probably hear from Snider on this one but that does not bother me
