Unfortunately, we got what we asked for, In Spades. Then the fans turned on Bertuzzi and wanted to run him out of town. I don't think the fans of Vancouver can look at this guilt free, and try to take the high road. Bertuzzi, the team and the fans were all culpable and the punishment the league sent down is probably just for all parties.

Hasn't Naslund gone on record a few times that it was a clean hit?
That he (Naslund) was off balance, but it was a clean hit?
(I never saw it, but everything I've heard it was clean).
