Just to show (some) objectivity, last year Marc Savard was accused of biting Dan Carcillo in game one of the EC semis. Granted everyone outside of the knuckle draggers in Philadelphia is aware Carcillo is a little shit and his word doesn't hold much weight. However, Savard had previously been accused of biting & was suspended for it while he played for Atlanta so it wouldn't have been out of the question for Carcillo to be telling the truth. I don't recall anyone coming out of the woodwork for Savvy to be suspended so I think it's slightly hypocritical for B's fans to do so when they're the victim.

Granted, I am against biting as whole and I think the "what was he supposed to do" argument is a crock of bullshit. Does this look like a guy who bit a finger as a last resort?




All I am trying to say is that Burrows is definitely guilty of a unsportsmanlike act. I agree that he shouldn't be suspended but a fine seemed a no brainer. You're going to tell me what Horton did was worse than biting?
