Let's see what Torres gets for running Hossa (it was a very similar hit as Neal's), I'm guessing it has to be at least 3 because there was an injury. But the lack of consistency has been appaling.
i just know from watching backstrom for the last few years that i don't remember him ever being dirty, or ever getting suspended. and he has had some head shots come his way. but yes, the lack of consistency is ridiculous-as is the lack of real suspensions for some of these hits.
but like i said before, crosby's back on the ice, and concussions and the like are on the back burner right now.

Stick fouls have always been frowned upon by the NHL, that's why Backstrom got the game.

IMO Backstrom and Neal should have gotten two games.
