| will be interesting to see if the league continues to turn a blind eye to the reckless behaviour of Alexander Ovechkin after yet another suspension worthy incident to any other mere mortal. Bettman and the league have been criticized many times already for their lack of punishment when it comes to Ovechkin but after this second incident in less than a week (remember last week he was ejected for a boarding call against Buffalo's Patrick Kaleta) it will be really hard for them to let it slide once again. It was pretty blatant in my opinion, both players saw each other and he defintely had time to avoid the collision. This is the third incident that been suspension worthy so far this season including the slew-foot on Atlanta's Rich Peverley on Oct. 22. Although Ovechkin is quite possibly the most talented and exciting player in the game today, this kind of play cannot be tolerated and I think they league has no choice but to suspend him..What are your thoughts? | ||
