That's your example of a "dirty" play by Zucker? You're a ****ing moron!
What I wrote was both hits were nearly identical: 1) both players delivering the hit made contact into the head and neck area resulting in an injury, and 2) both players receiving the hit did not have possession of the puck. According to the Official IIHF Rulebook (2010-2014, #540, p. 83) it's officially "dirty" and Zucker should have been assessed a match penalty for his hit to the head area on Stajnoch:
Just curious, are you always this stupid or are you trying REAL hard today?
540 – CHECKING TO THE HEAD AND NECK AREA.
a) A player who directs a check or blow, with any part of his body or equipment to the head and neck area of an opposing player or "drives" or "forces" the head of an opposing player into the protective glass on boards, shall be assessed at the discretion of the Referee, a: Minor penalty + Automatic Misconduct penalty (2’+10’) or Major penalty + Automatic Game Misconduct penalty (5’+GM) or Match Penalty (MP)
b) A player who injures an opponent as result of checking to the Head and Neck Area shall be assessed, a: Match Penalty (MP)
c) This rule supersedes Rules 520, 522, 525, 526 and 537 with regard to all actions described under articles a) and b).
So please stop this incessant whining about Rau's hit...Zucker did the same thing. "Instant karma gonna get you...gonna knock you off your feet".
"Little cross dresser"? Seems like a Freudian slip old man.
BwaaaaahahahaaahahahahahhhaaahahahaaJust curious, are you always this stupid or are you trying REAL hard today?

I didn't see the Wild recap. I only saw the DU player in the pros. Now, seriously, go away, little man. Your game has become tiresome.Gee, a Wild recap on a DU thread...brilliant son.
When it is appropriate, yes. Would you like a grammar lesson at this time?Punctuate much?
Need a shovel? Please don't tell me you got an education from DU?
The commas around the word "seriously" showed that, had I been speaking, I would have paused both before and after that word. I assume that even a mental giant such as you can figure out the necessity of the other comma. You see, when writing in a conversational tone, punctuation can be used to show the rhythm of what would have been speech if we were speaking. So actually, yes the punctuation was perfectly appropriate to the situation. But by all means, feel free to belittle my education. I suppose I have it coming after pointing out that you are a ****ing moron.Appropriate?

I'm sorry you struggled so mightily with high school English, but you are certainly entitled to your incorrect opinion.
