NHL Suspends Raffi Torres for 41 games for hit to head

Torres has a pretty checked history with headshots (he's been suspended/warned/fined 9 times), so I certainly don't disagree.

Also, I absolutely LOVE these videos the NHL does to explains suspensions. Could you imagine Roger the Dodger doing one of these?

Good. It's about time these type of suspensions start coming down. Hopefully they start happening with much more regularity.

That would mean the NFL would
1. Know it's own rules
2. Be consistent

We know neither is going to happen

I applaud this suspension...frankly I would've been ok with a complete season ban. Dude is reckless and hot garbage...the sooner he's out of the league, the better
