It wouldn't of been any longer because he came back and kept playing. If he would gotten hurt and been out, the suspension would of been longer.

I just saw the replays of pronger's hit a few times last night. I think the key to drawing a suspension is if you get your hands up around the head. If he would have given him a shoulder...no suspension.

Having said that what did you guys think of the coincidental minors for boarding and charging that were called in last night's game ?
Do you think that might have been fallout from the Pronger suspension, i.e. the refs are going to be a tad quicker calling penalties now?
