Alexander Ovechkin Suspended Two Games

The wheel of justice has spoken!

Wheelofjustice_medium Tarik El-Bashir is reporting that the NHL has suspended Washington Capitals forward Alexander Ovechkin two games for "supreme awesomeness" and has decided to have it coincide with the time he would normally sit due to an injured knee. That way the NHL can say that he has been suspended and now enters their repeat offenders category (which actually, like Ron Burgundy, is kind of a big deal). Word on the street is that BReynolds is a liar and a cheat and a swindler and the Caps fans suffer from "Russian Blinders."

So, anyway, both sides can get back to their corners and concentrate on the toothless nature of the suspension.

Now, before anyone goes out and harps on me for being a d-bag who hates Ovechkin, let me just say this. Alexander Ovechkin is the most exciting player in the NHL, and frankly, I don't care if he's dirty, he's still super fun to watch.

Thoughts?

Frankly, I have said on other sites that I think Ovechkin deserved 3-5. No option up there that I could have voted for =(.

I more wanted him suspended so we get off of this God forsaken wheel of justice. I didn’t like when Malkin got away with garbage in last years SCF (Especially when precedent was established on Brashear’s contact with an opponent in pregame warm-ups and that a rule is written to allow judgment calls instead of letting a rulebook not have loopholes). I want my players to be playing by the same rules as everyone else, and if CC had used this as a chance to end this garbage, I would have been frustratingly honored to have it start with my guy.

Signed, a Dale Hunter lover, who deserved every suspension he ever got.

Time to get a new joke? This one’s getting a bit stale.
