I am really disgusted with how some hockey players handle themselves. Tonight my most hated player is Jared Cowen after his cheap and dirty hit to Jeff Skinner's head. I am glad Chad LaRose went after him immediately and later Kevin Westgarth took matters into his own hands and defended his teammate. I will never understand why you would intentionally hit another player in the head but why would you target someone with a history of concussions?
I have said it before but until these players start respecting each other and the game, nothing is going to change. Maybe it is time for equipment changes to make these hits hurt the perpetrator too.
I was concerned this season with Hurricanes player Tim Wallace after he got ejected from a game for a questionable hit. I never wanted that type of player on a team I was rooting for but lately it feels like other teams just walk all over the Hurricanes. Why kick a team when they are all ready down and out of a playoff spot? I am on board for someone to step up and show other teams there are consequences for their ugly actions.
Jared Cowen - you are a d-bag and I hope your career is ended on a dirty hit!
