Another Flyers cheap shot???

[blueline]

Just read this in the Boston Globe so I haven't see the highlights yet. Looks like another Flyer player is at it again. Patrice Bergeron of the Bruins was hit from behind into the glass and was carried off on a stretcher. WTF is going on with that team??

Honestly, it was no worse than Volchenkov's hit from behind against Florida; and there was no suspension there.

Personally I hate any hits from behind, but if they're going to result in suspensions it should be for all of them and not just when the Flyers do it.

what's really brutal is that these cheap shots are against the teams' star players. bergeron is one of the top bruins forwards and kesler has easily been the best canucks forward this year.

bergeron was partly to blame. jones didn't need to staple him though. ugly play.

if this is the same hit i just heard about on hnic there was a broken nose and a concussion.

stop blaming the victim boneheads!

it's called puck protection and everyone does it (turn into the boards)... the checker has to avoid checking from behind... plain and simple.
