Backes hit Seabs in the head with his glove on a couple of times, and then tries to punch him in the face after throwing his glove off, and they both get tossed from the game. Ridiculous. It's obvious that Backes is still upset about the hit, and if he's more concerned about that, then winning the game, so much the better.</p>

I also thought Carcillo going after Ott, after his hit on Shaw early in the game, stopped the Blues shenanigans; Reeves was quiet, Lapierre wasn't chirping, Ott quieted down and Backes wasn't doing cheap shots on Toews, though he did slash Richards which gave us a PP. Only Jackman was behaving like an idiot - but what else is new - though Shaw was having none of his BS. It wasn't till the end of the game, when the Blues were too far behind to come back, that Backes started his hysterical hissy-fit with Seabs. </p>

They were tossing people for looking at each other funny at the end of the game. </p>
I don't think they wanted the final minute stretched out into a PIM fest/Burrows hair pulling. </p>
4-1, nothing to prove except bruised egos. Blues lost, go to Nashville and hope fatso gets you a win against Rinne and company. </p>
