“It doesn’t surprise me. I looked at it 50 times. I understand where the fans are coming on it because it’s Cooke,” said former Columbus GM Doug MacLean, an analyst with Rogers Sportsnet Thursday morning. “I saw as a hit and pin play and a hit and pin play that went wrong.”
This won’t sit well with Ottawa fans. Cooke has a shady past and many believe if the incident wasn’t intentional, at the very least it was reckless and that’s why he should face some kind of discipline for what happened.
Karlsson returned to Ottawa with the Senators Wednesday after the game to have surgery here. He lacerated his achillies tendon. Two league executives told the Sun the normal recovery period is 4-to-6 months.
I don’t agree with this decision. I think Cooke should get something just because he’s Matt Cooke.

You’re already putting Karlsson above him?)

The guy is a Devil disguised in Penguin clothes. He essentially ended the career of Marc Savard without repercussion. Yes, he's been suspended a number of times for trying to decapitate others, but then Wednesday in Pittsburgh he almost chops Erik Karlsson off at the ankle, and again nobody is doing anything about it?
For real?
It's not like Cooke is getting away with murder, but close. He probably killed the Senators' playoff chances -- and hurt attendance throughout the league

He outscored the next defenseman by 25 points. Prior seasons gap between #1 and #2: 6, 7, 9, 5, 2, 9, 4, 1, 3, 8, 11, 5, 2.
