It was just blown up so much from the media, and because it was Bertuzzi. I am though a big fan of his, and his hitting steve morre doesnt change that, hes still a good hockey player, stupid but good

First of all, don't triple post. You could have easily made all of your points in one post.

Secondly...Yes, Bertuzzi is still a great hockey player, but he made a really bad mistake, so he's paying for it...It's all about the severity of the injury basically. Of course the intent wasn't to break the guy's neck, but that's what happened so he has to pay for it big time.

Moore is not going to be back for the playoffs, no chance in hell, they still don't know whether he'll be able to play hockey again...Not sure where you heard he'd be back, but it isn't happening. Here's the most recent ESPN article..http://sports.espn.go.com/nhl/news/story?id=1766245 He just got out of the hospital today and has to wear a neck brace for 6-12 weeks, I don't believe that you can play hockey in a neck brace.

Plus, I dunno, I love the Flyers. Honestly, I don't think they'll win (Goaltending is the issue once again...), but I always hope that they do, that's what being a fan is about.
