Just saw this on twitter
is it true?"@ChiTownSports: 25 games for Raffi Torres!!"

It is now clear that there is little to no consistency in terms of the length of suspensions given by the NHL. It isn't that Torres didn't deserve 25 games. It is that others have deserved as much and more.

:yep: weber should've gotten like 10 games for that setter erg play that was just malicious.
Not long enough IMO. ****** should've been given a lifetime ban.
im thinking this was his last chance
Well if it makes you feel any better, I like the Sedins and I didn't think Torres' hit on Hossa was the end of the world.
His hit on Seabrook was much more egregious.
25 games is a bit much, but they did a good job with the suspension video.
Showing 5 other plays where he's been dinged for hits to the head really drives home the point that Torres plays dirty and those were just 5 times where he's been penalized by the league... you could easily add in the Seabrook hit from last year for which he received no punishment.
It's a crazy amount of games, but he's an easy target (which is his own doing) and it seems like it could be an effective message being sent.
To the chicago media for causing this storm, congrats you are the biggest wind bags in the states.
...and that's what happens when your face is on the back page of a Chicago paper with the headline "Public Enemy #1." I blame the ruckus made by the Chicago press and Hawks players for this one.
Would love to see what the 'top cop' has to say about death threats.
Good to see Cri-Town get what they wanted. Maybe now the *****ing and moaning will end about us getting calls in our favor. Give me a ****ing break.
