commentary...

Rule 48.1 states a blindside,or lateral hit to an opponent,where targeting the head,and/or the principal point of contact,is not permitted...
there is the rule that Tom Kostopoulos got suspended,for breaking jaw,of Brad Stuart,but neither the Calgary Flames' GM,Jay Feaster,or Kostopoulos,himself,thinks that he did not do anything wrong,stating that,"I am extremely disappointed in the League's ruling,as i believe that i have not done anything illegal...",Tom Kostopoulos
"While we are sorry the player was injured,but we maintain,in the (NHL) hearing,the hit was a legal check,the player was batting at the puck,and Tom hit him in chest,and was following through on the hit",Jay Feaster,Flames general manager... he did not even have the guts,to even name Brad Stuart,as the player injured... what a disgusting rhetoric,and statements made,than even a Calgary Flames blog(Matchsticks,and Gasoline)could not believe the statements,and simply ripped both on their blog,and even giving sympathy,to Brad Stuart... true hockey fans should be outraged,and disgusted.... i am... i would be very upset,even if it was a player on the Flames,who was injured,because it was deliberate,on Kostopoulos' part,period!!!!!!!!!!!
