The Bertuzzi Fallout

[Evil Chris]

Wow, you guys are tough.
You know, I'm not condoning his actions at all but everyone who watches hockey loves the fights and the rough stuff, and sadly this kind of thing is eventually going to happen.

We all cheer when there is a good fight on the ice, and it's a bonus when it's over and the players tap each other on the head and say "good fight". But if one of them gets seriously hurt, it's another opinion altogether.

Bertuzzi was wrong. That's a given. But he has shown remorse and is taking his punishment like a man. There's no need to also kick him while he's down.
