Without violence, hockey is just soccer on ice.

I guess you live in Pittsburgh.

Not all hockey fans think violence is needed. As a Penguin fan I can tell you that Mario Lemieux was complaining about excessive violence back in the 1980s.The NHL (and their representatives the refs) did not enforce any rule changes that were made. So the violence continued. Now they act when it is too late for Steve Moore. He might have played his last game.
Hockey is a rough, physical full contact sport.Players are going to get hurt.As far as Bertuzzi, I'd like to see him miss the rest of the season and all of the playoffs. Since it happened in vancouver, the Canadian legal system probably has something to say on the subject as well.
Prayers go out to Steve Moore and his family. I saw him play and met him while he played in Hershey, and I can tell you he is a nice guy.
