Update On Pronger and other Stuff

Douchebag Chris Pronger has been suspended 8 games by the NHL for his stomping on Kesler. In my mind, thats not enough, it doesn’t even take him out for the remainder of the season. It is not a big surprise however. As I mentioned in my last post, Pronger recieves a special treatment, considering he has been suspended 8 teams through-out his 14 year NHL career, 3 times in the past year. They should have taken him out for the duration of the season and play-offs. I think that would have been adequete.

Crosby is going to out for a week nursing his ankle. Apparently it is pretty sore, so they Pens are obviously wanted to save him for play-offs. If the Pens are capable of getting healthy, they have a shot at winning the East, because as of right now it seems like its pretty wide open, and available for the taking.

 Sundin as of right now is listed as day-to-day with a sore groin, and it is unknown if he will play tonight. With the play-off implications the game against Buffalo has, I would bet on him playing, even if he plays 10-14 minutes, rather then he usual near 20 min. Leafs could just use him for faceoffs, because he is key for the Leafs there, and has shown it by taking more faceoffs than anyone else in the league.
