Red Wings' news...

Brendan Smith,of the Red Wings,lined up Ben Smith,of the Chicago Blackhawks,for a body check,but smacked him to the ice,with a shoulder to the head,got a match penalty,and then waived supplemental discipline hearing,today... to be fair,and objective,he does deserve a suspension,of,at least,five games,because Ben Smith was sprawled on the ice,facedown,and to tell you the truth(and i have to admit this),it is not necessary to smack Smith to ice,like Brendan Smitrh hit him,because the angle indicates that it was deliberate,period... it is my opinion that Smith did not have to hit him like that,and i would have said the same thing(and have) about other NHL players...
