Who dat? Hockey player? The last time I paid any interest to hockey was years ago when another guy, I think it was an Oilers player was suspended for the rest of the season for a cheap shot on a 'Black' hockey player. Of course the white guy did it only because the opposing guy was black.

Right then and there I excused myself from the political correctness of hockey. It's also inundated all the other sports too especially the NBA but most of the players there are the 'right' color, just the wrong sexual orientation.

Simon is a repeat offender,( I think he's been suspended 5 other times, once last year for a stupid attack on a player who was lying on the ice) so he has a bad reputation to begin with. I agree that the other player Simon hit was playing possum after he was hit, but it looked, and was, inexcusable. He got what he deserved (25 games), and he's lucky it wasn't longer.
