    I'd be fine with that, but I would be even more so with Gary Bettman's.

      So one thing I haven't seen mentioned in this thread is the fact that the AHL will be utilzing a 4-man officiating crew for 40% of it's games next season.

      I'm sure the Shegos', Hall's, Wilkins', Shepherd's, and Andersons if the world will be esctatic to move up from the NCAA to the NHL/AHL.

        I hope at some point the NHL gets serious about this stuff...
        The Downie play is kind of tricky. In no way do I want to defend the guy because has a bad history with stuff like this. But all he really did was fall. He did ride Crosby for a long time but based off of his body positioning it looks like he was just trying to put Crosby into the boards when he fell. He didn't use his stick on Crosby, he didn't hit from behind, it wasn't a hit to the head. Downie fell, thats it. Unfortunately for Sid it happened to be on the back of his leg.

        I suppose a suspension could have been warranted for intent to injure but if Cooke didn't get one then I don't see why Downie would too.

            As much as I hate having those guys in the WCHA (along with Brian Thul), I don't want them anywhere near the NHL.

            Instead, I propose a straight-up trade with HOCKY RAST. Their least favorite officials for ours! That way, each conference gets some new officials to whine about.

              Shepherd and Anderson would definitely not be on my least favorite list. They can have Thul and Mason.

                      Watch closer. Downie positions his leg right behind Crosby and then goes down. It's a very deliberate move. Look at his left arm too...it's grabbing Crosby's leg.

                      I'm faaaar from a Crosby fan, but that's not even is Matt Cooke's cheap repertoire...

                                I hopped in a time machine and traveled to August. Thornton will be traded!

                                Seriously though, I don't profess to know exactly why the Sharks are such huge chokers, other than to say that they obviously don't know how to sign guys who have the balls to perform well in the postseason. Even though it's fun to mock their usual playoff ineptitude, I almost feel bad for them and would not at all mind seeing them play in a SCF one of these days.
