Does Tootoo get suspended for this? I'm not sure what else he can do, other than either try to jump over Miller which he tried but failed, or to just barrel into him. #Sabres#Preds
Twitter - http://www.twitter.com/hockeyvault Jordin Tootoo runs over Ryan Miller followed by a line brawl between the Sabres and Predators (December 3, 2011)...
Sorry but he had plenty of choices there, he should get a suspension for that. Seemed to me like he kind of knew what he was going too. I loved the Sabres reaction. And the guy in the front row losing his shit and banging on the glass haha.
LOL i didn't notice the guy in the background. Well i have no problem with the reaction of the Sabres as i would expect the Preds to do the same, i don't think it should be a suspension. Lucic's hit to me was much worse and the only reason we are talking about this now.
As much as it pains me to say it, and as much as I wish he had gotten something, the main difference is that Miller was in his crease Saturday and not on the Lucic hit. Tootoo did that on purpose and he has a record.
I don't see how the hit is viscous, Tootoo has tried to jump over goalies before. he did it last year in the playoffs on Emery, and if you watch from a side angle you can see he tried to superman over him. He will probably get 2 games because the league has to make a statement but to say that the hit is malicious is off base.
The reason i say Lucic's is worse is because of the way he hit Miller, he shouldered the guy in the head, Tootoo could of ran Miller and made things much worse.

Easily a suspension. Hopefully at least five. That's a vicious, unnecessary hit on a defenseless goalie
