    It was both.
    He sucks so much he Matt Cookes, but does he Cooke so much he Dan Cloutier's.

      Again...nobody here is saying Cooke shouldn't be suspended.

        Never really developed a taste for tequila. Kind of hard to understand how you make a drink out of something that sharp, inhospitable. Now, bourbon is easy to understand.

          Maybe not, but I didn't see any Hawks fan rationalizing Seabrook's hit by looking for other similar hits that were less penalized.

          Had Seabs gotten 7, which to be fair was about what I expected, I would have accepted it coz that was a hellacious hit and a dangerous play. I think you'll find me consistent on that subject.

          Cooke should have gotten more imo. Complete bush league play. Not even a hockey play as he only went for the knee and after the puck was gone.

            In other news, Hawks go complete derp-mode in their own zone to close out the period and find themselves tied in a game that they've dominated.

              Not even a hockey play and Seabrook went for the head. Just sayin'. Like it or not, the Seabrook thing set a precedent. THAT'S why many are mad. IMO, Seabrook and Cooke's suspensions should have been reversed.

              For those that aren't friends with me on FB/follow on Tweeter Machine:

              Seabrook's suspension is deserving of about 45% severity compared to Cooke's suspension. To isolate these 2 instances only....he gets 30% of the 100% Banhammer, and Cooke gets 70%. Smell the BS yet?

                Most Wild fans are saying it is too much, most Avalanche fans are saying it isn't enough, and most uninterested parties are fine with it. Must have been a good call, really.

                  The Avs fans think Cooke overtook Ukraine, massacred Syria, and sank that cruise ship. All before breakfast.

                      I don't really have much of a problem with it. I see it as 2 games for the play, 5 for the way he used to play. Even though he's been a changed player for the last 3 years, I do agree that the past should be taken into consideration.

                          Oh, I'm sorry. Are you most of the uninterested parties I have been talking to? How could I have made such a silly mistake?

                            Because you Matt Cooke?

                              Pretty much. The risk of taking him has always been exactly this. Many players do something stupid at some point, and when he does the consequences are going to be big.

                              Also, if he had been given a major and tossed for the remainder of the game, would the suspension be as long? I would usually say no, but who knows with Cooke and his history.

                                How I feel. I thinks it's adequate.
